Gov. Maura Healey signed the Affordable Homes Act into law Tuesday, August 6. A key provision in the legislation allows for Accessory Dwelling Units to be built 'by right'. AARP has been fighting for that provision for months. ADUs are a family-friendly, community-creating type of housing the nation needs more of.
The Massachusetts Legislature failed to pass final legislation that would strengthen regulations in long term care facilities despite approving reforms in both the House and the Senate. A housing bill that will allow for accessory dwelling units was passed. That bill moves on to the governor who is expected to sign it.
