relative to housing accessibility and voucher allocation in new multi-unit developments.
HB 1732 requires new multi-unit housing developments (over 6 units) approved on or after January 1, 2027, to reserve 5% of units for residents eligible for federal housing vouchers and design another 5% of units to meet universal accessibility standards. This directly affects developers of new residential projects and impacts residents with disabilities, as well as individuals using federal housing vouchers. The bill mandates compliance monitoring by regional housing authorities and requires the state health department and housing finance agency to create informational resources for developers. It does not provide new state funding but estimates minimal costs for administrative support.
