Ensures continued rights for public housing residents during redevelopment.
This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to ensure that tenants of public housing projects undergoing redevelopment retain their rights. It mandates that redevelopment projects maintain the same number of low-rent housing units and implement tenant rights through contracts or agreements. Tenants must be rehoused without displacement, and they will receive technical assistance to participate in project development. The bill aims to prevent re-screening, termination, or eviction of tenants and maintains their status for compliance purposes.
