HF 2273: Relating to county and city regulation of rental housing

Died when the session ended · The General Assembly adjourned on April 19, 2024. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

This bill relates to county and city regulation of rental housing and federal housing choice voucher use. Under current law, a county or a city shall not adopt or enforce an ordinance or regulation that prohibits a person having the right to lease, sublease, or rent out a dwelling unit from refusing to rent a dwelling out to a person because the person is using a federal housing choice voucher. A “dwelling unit” means a structure or the part of a structure that is used as a home, residence, or sleeping place. The bill strikes this prohibition on counties and cities.
