TO REPEAL THE LOCATION ACT FOR COMMUNITY HOMES FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH INTELLECTUAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES.

House Bill 1537 repeals the "Location Act for Community Homes for Individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities." This action removes state-level provisions that designated certain community homes ("Family Home I" and "Family Home II") as permitted residential uses and restricted local governments from requiring special permits for them. The bill also eliminates state-mandated density control rules, such as limits on the number of homes based on city population and required distances between facilities. This effectively removes the specific statutory framework that previously governed the location and zoning treatment for these community homes at the state level.
