The bill amends Section 45-53-4 of the General Laws in Chapter 45-53, "Low and Moderate Income Housing," specifically addressing comprehensive permit projects in the town of Tiverton. It provides that applications for comprehensive permit projects involving properties that are not connected to public water or sewer systems, and that are classified as hydric, predominately hydric, or have a seasonal high-water table, shall have the land excluded from the buildable land density calculation. This exclusion aims to protect environmentally sensitive areas. The bill takes effect upon passage.
