Arizona HB2719 mandates municipalities with populations over 75,000 to allow middle housing on certain lots.

Arizona HB2719 amends zoning regulations to require municipalities with populations over 75,000 to permit middle housing, including duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and townhouses, on lots zoned for single-family residential use within one mile of the central business district and in at least 20% of new developments over ten acres. The bill prohibits municipalities from discouraging middle housing through restrictive requirements or actions. It defines "middle housing" as buildings with two or more attached, detached, stacked, or clustered homes compatible with single-family houses.
