This bill prohibits a county or city from adopting, enforcing, or otherwise administering an ordinance, motion, resolution, or building code that prohibits or limits the use of a specific style of exterior cladding or finish materials for residential buildings in a manner that is more restrictive than the state building code. The bill does not prohibit a county or city from regulating the use of a specific style of exterior cladding or finish materials for a residential building that is located in an area designated and declared as a state or local historic district, designated as a local, state, or national historic landmark, in a common interest community, or located on a property governed by a policy or regulation of an overlay or a special purpose zoning district.
