H 1331 Massachusetts House · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to starter homes

This bill removes the term "starter home zoning district" from the Massachusetts General Laws, effectively eliminating a specific zoning category previously established for starter homes. The legislation directly affects local municipalities and zoning boards by repealing the legal language that defined this particular zoning classification. By striking out these specific words from the statute, the bill aims to alter how starter homes are regulated within the state's zoning framework.
