Signed by the Governor on 03/27/2026; Chapter 14; Effective 05/26/2026
Summary
The bill lets the state commissioner waive existing building standards for repair, reconstruction, or improvement of structures over water when the work provides greater protection for public water or the environment and does not change the activity’s nature. It requires that the structure’s footprint and overall living space not increase, and that kitchen, bathroom, shower, and toilet areas be reduced. The goal is to enable safer, more eco‑friendly upgrades while preserving water access.
