Pennsylvania HR484 directs a study on creating a Statewide housing accelerator and reviewing housing approval processes to reduce delays.

Pennsylvania HR484 directs the Joint State Government Commission to study the creation of a Statewide housing accelerator to assist in advancing shovel-ready housing projects. The study will also review State and local housing-related policies and procedures, including zoning, conservation district approvals, and land development regulations, to identify barriers that delay residential construction. The Commission will evaluate best practices from other states and recommend ways to streamline approvals, reduce unnecessary delays, and expand housing attainability.
