The bill amends Section 45-53-4 of the General Laws concerning "Low and Moderate Income Housing" by establishing specific provisions for comprehensive permit projects in the town of Tiverton. Notably, the bill prohibits the inclusion of accessory dwelling units in any comprehensive permit applications filed in Tiverton. This means that developers cannot propose accessory dwelling units as part of their projects.
Additionally, the bill outlines that once a comprehensive permit project has received final approval, no accessory dwelling units may be added to the project. For the purposes of this legislation, an "accessory dwelling unit" is defined as a residential living unit located on the same lot where the principal use is legally established as a single-family or multi-family dwelling unit.
The act is set to take effect upon passage.
