Summary

The bill lets affordable housing developments that file permits between 2025 and 2035 skip the latest Level 2 electric‑vehicle charging rules and instead follow the 2022 standards. It applies to projects where all units are designated affordable for low‑ or moderate‑income families. The change is meant to lower construction costs for these housing projects.
