HB 18

AN ACT relating to property.

In Plain Language

This bill requires developers to follow stricter approval procedures when building apartment buildings or multi-family housing in neighborhoods zoned for single-family homes. It also prohibits property owners from renting out accessory dwelling units or apartments in those same neighborhoods unless they live on the property themselves.

Official summary

Create a new section of KRS Chapter 100 to require certain development projects in zones that have traditionally been reserved for single-family homes to be treated as amendments to a zoning map and to meet the procedural requirements for approval set out in KRS Chapter 100; create a new section of KRS Chapter 383 that prohibits property owner's from leasing accessory dwelling units or multi-family housing units in zones that have traditionally been reserved for single-family homes unless the property owner primarily resides on the lot.
