Senate Bill No. 1307 establishes a working group tasked with developing best practices to promote housing growth while simultaneously protecting the state's water supply. The working group will consist of various members, including chairpersons and ranking members of the joint standing committee of the General Assembly related to housing, as well as representatives from the Office of Policy and Management, the Department of Housing, the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, and the Department of Public Health. Additionally, the group will include experts in housing, planning, and public water supply, all appointed by the committee chairpersons. The initial appointments must be made within thirty days of the bill's passage, and the group is required to submit a report on its findings by January 1, 2026.

The bill does not include any deletions from current law but introduces new legal language to establish the working group and outline its composition and responsibilities. The working group will be chaired by the housing committee chairpersons, and its administrative staff will be provided by the same committee. The bill is expected to have no fiscal impact on the state or municipalities, as the working group is composed of individuals with the necessary expertise to fulfill its mandate.
