(Allen, Travis R) Planning and zoning: affordable housing: streamlined approval process.
Summary: Current law, until January 1, 2026, authorizes a development proponent to submit an application for a multifamily housing development, which satisfies specified planning objective standards, that is subject to a streamlined, ministerial approval process, as provided, and not subject to a conditional use permit. This bill would authorize a development property to submit anapplication for a development to be subject to a streamlined, ministerial approval process provided that development meet specified objective planning standards, such as that the development contains fewer than 25 residential units and provides housing for persons and families of low or moderate income.
