Rhode Island H8468 allows Coventry to count manufactured homes in age-restricted communities as half an affordable housing unit.

Rhode Island H8468 amends the Rhode Island Housing Resources Act of 1998 to allow the town of Coventry to receive a one-half credit for affordable housing units for manufactured homes in age-restricted communities. These manufactured homes must be located in communities where residents must be at least fifty-five years old and comply with Coventry's zoning laws and ordinances.
