Fiscal Detail and Notes
This amendment shifts responsibility for convening a stakeholder group to study the methods and develop model policy to encourage the development and construction of accessory dwelling units from the Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD) to the Governor's Office of Policy Innovation and the Future (GOPIF). The amendment also eliminates the one-time General Fund appropriation of $50,000 in fiscal year 2023-24 to the Housing Opportunity Program within DECD for the cost of a consultant to support the work of a stakeholder group. The cost to GOPIF to support the stakeholder group will be absorbed within existing budgeted resources.
