Summary
The legislation changes state zoning rules so municipalities cannot exclude manufactured, modular, or mobile homes and must permit accessory dwelling units on owner‑occupied single‑family lots under the same standards as the main house. It also gives developers who use union labor an extra 20 % density bonus and creates a new process for appealing local zoning decisions to the state Environmental Division. The goal is to expand affordable housing options throughout Vermont.
