HD 3458 Massachusetts House · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to allowing redivision of merger lots in municipalities adopting NetZero code

This bill allows municipalities in Massachusetts that have adopted a specific NetZero energy code to split merged lots back into separate parcels for zoning purposes. It specifically targets adjacent lots owned by the same person in towns that have opted into the state's specialized stretch energy code. The law clarifies that these combined lots do not need to be treated as a single unit to meet local zoning requirements for lot area. By enabling this redivision, the bill aims to provide flexibility for property owners in communities pursuing stricter energy efficiency standards.
