The bill amends Section 42-128-8.1 of the Rhode Island Housing Resources Act to include provisions specific to the town of Tiverton. It allows manufactured homes located in age-restricted communities, where residents must be fifty-five (55) years or older, to be credited as half (1/2) of an affordable housing unit. This credit is contingent upon the manufactured homes being in compliance with the town's zoning, land development, and subdivision ordinances, and being licensed annually by the town. The act is set to take effect upon passage.
