Massachusetts S865 aims to enhance municipal access to existing housing data by centralizing and updating it in a machine-readable database.

Massachusetts S865 seeks to improve municipal access to general existing housing data by amending Chapter 23B of the general laws. The bill mandates the collection and availability of detailed housing data for new and existing subsidized housing developments in a centralized, machine-readable, screen reader-compatible database. This data includes the total number of units, units with long-term use restrictions, the term and end date of these restrictions, unit locations, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and gross and livable square footage.
