Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to Bill HB 1054 focus on limiting the ability of homeowners' and apartment associations to impose restrictions on the number of unrelated individuals who can occupy a home or apartment. These changes specify that such restrictions cannot be enforced, except for certain occupancy limits on short-term rentals. This matters because it promotes more inclusive housing arrangements, making it easier for individuals who may not be related, such as college students or friends, to live together without facing restrictive rules from their housing associations.
