Identifying Regulatory Barriers to Housing Supply Act aims to reduce housing costs by requiring grantees to submit plans to address burdensome land.

The Identifying Regulatory Barriers to Housing Supply Act seeks to alleviate the housing shortage and reduce costs by discouraging the use of overly burdensome land use policies. The Act requires certain grantees under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 to submit plans detailing their efforts to adopt and implement policies that increase housing supply. These policies include expanding multifamily zones, allowing duplexes and triplexes in single-family areas, and streamlining permitting processes.
