Summary

The bill bars city planning agencies from requiring developers to create homeowners’ associations, gated walls, fences, or shared amenities that need an association, unless federal law mandates it. It also stops local governments from imposing aesthetic or design standards—such as colors, roof shape, window style, or driveway paving—on single‑family homes or accessory dwelling units, with limited historic, tribal, and military‑zone exemptions. The goal is to give homebuyers more freedom over their property choices.
