Bill overview
This bill aims to make it easier for mission-driven non-profit organizations to own and develop multifamily housing in West Virginia. It proposes changes to municipal zoning laws to allow for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) on properties owned by these non-profits. The legislation restricts certain regulations that might hinder ADU development, such as parking requirements, design restrictions, and impact fees, while allowing municipalities to charge application fees. It also establishes guidelines for zoning regulations related to ADUs, focusing on safety, public health, and compatibility with surrounding communities.
