This bill proposes to amend the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding a new section, 9-461.19, which mandates municipalities to establish standard preapproved housing design plans. These plans must include at least three different elevation options for each class of housing design, specifically for single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, and accessory dwelling units. Each class has defined size requirements, ensuring a range of options for residential development within areas zoned for single-family use.
The bill does not delete any existing statutes but introduces new requirements for municipalities to enhance housing design options. It clarifies the definition of "Accessory dwelling unit" by referencing section 9-461.18, ensuring consistency in terminology across the statutes. Overall, the bill aims to streamline the housing design approval process and promote diverse housing options within municipalities.
