Expanding opportunities for affordable housing developments on properties owned by religious organizations.
This bill expands opportunities for affordable housing on land owned by religious organizations. It requires cities and counties to allow increased housing density for these developments if at least 50% of the units are for low-income households and will remain affordable for 50 years. The bill also provides sales and use tax exemptions for materials used in these affordable housing projects, which must be owned or partnered with a nonprofit religious organization.
