Establishes tax incentives in relation to workforce and disaster recovery housing
HB 1715 creates a Missouri tax credit program to incentivize workforce and disaster recovery housing projects. It provides tax credits against state income or franchise taxes for housing developers, contractors, or nonprofits building projects that meet specific criteria, including locations in designated "distressed workforce housing communities" or counties with state disaster declarations eligible for FEMA aid. Projects must include at least two single-family homes (or four in non-small cities), three multi-unit dwelling units, or two units in redeveloped multi-use buildings. The credits cover qualifying costs like construction or rehabilitation, excluding amounts already covered by other government grants or tax credits, and target underutilized sites like brownfields (contaminated properties) or grayfields (blighted, outdated developments).
