The proposed Bill No. 6764 aims to provide housing assistance to impoverished veterans by authorizing department heads to coordinate the delivery of insulated prefabricated homes. These homes will be specifically designed for veterans whose income is below the federal poverty line and who have been without a permanent residence for the past ninety days. Each home will feature two bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a bathroom, and can be delivered to property owned by the veteran or a consenting third party.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that if the prefabricated home does not comply with local zoning regulations, the municipality must identify an alternative location for the home within sixty days of the noncompliance determination. This legislation seeks to establish a program that addresses the housing needs of vulnerable veterans, ensuring they have access to safe and adequate living conditions.
