The bill amends Chapter 45-53 of the General Laws, which pertains to "Low and Moderate Income Housing," by introducing a new section titled "Minimum egress requirements for conventional subdivisions." Specifically, it establishes that in the town of Tiverton, any minimum egress requirements set by municipal ordinance or regulation will apply equally to comprehensive permit applications submitted under chapter 53 of title 45. Furthermore, the bill stipulates that these minimum egress requirements for conventional subdivisions cannot be waived, modified, or reduced for comprehensive permit applications.

This legislation aims to ensure that safety and accessibility standards are consistently upheld in Tiverton, particularly in relation to housing developments. The act will take effect immediately upon passage, reinforcing the importance of maintaining egress standards in the planning and approval processes for housing projects in the town.
