An Act relative to detached accessory dwellings

This bill amends Massachusetts housing laws to officially recognize and regulate tiny homes by adopting specific construction standards known as Appendix Q. The legislation requires state officials to create new rules for building these small, detached accessory dwellings and mandates that these standards be updated annually to match national code revisions. By incorporating these technical guidelines, the bill provides a clear legal framework for constructing tiny homes while ensuring they meet established safety and building requirements.
