S.B. No. 1110 proposes an amendment to the Local Government Code, specifically Section 211.006, by adding a new Subsection (g). This new provision states that the existing zoning requirements outlined in Subsection (d) will not apply to properties where developments have applied for or received tax credits under Chapter 2306, Subchapter DD of the Government Code. This change aims to facilitate the development of projects that receive financial assistance from the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs by exempting them from certain zoning restrictions.

The bill is designed to encourage the development of affordable housing and related projects by easing regulatory burdens on developers who are utilizing state financial assistance. The act will take effect immediately if it secures a two-thirds majority vote in both houses of the legislature; otherwise, it will become effective on September 1, 2025.

Introduced: Local Government Code 211.006 (Local Government Code 211)
