Requires generator, shower facilities, and kitchen in newly-constructed clubhouse in age-restricted housing development.
This bill requires newly built clubhouses in age-restricted housing developments (for seniors) to include an emergency power generator, shower facilities, and a kitchen. These must be available to residents during emergencies, such as power outages. The requirement applies only to new clubhouses, not existing ones that already meet the standards, and if multiple clubhouses exist, only one needs to comply. The bill defines "age-restricted development" as housing complying with federal senior housing rules and "clubhouse" as a 1,000+ sq ft space for social activities with plumbing. It takes effect immediately.
