SB 335
AN ACT relating to regulation of occupancies by local governments.
In Plain Language
This bill prevents cities and counties from adopting rules that restrict who can live together in a home, with exceptions for safety codes and building rules. Local governments can still enforce fire safety codes and construction standards. The bill doesn't let cities or counties make their own occupancy restrictions beyond what state safety laws allow.
Official summary
Create a new section of KRS Chapter 65 prohibiting a local government from adopting or enforcing certain restrictions on the occupancy of dwelling units; state that the prohibition does not affect a local government's ability to enforce safety codes including the state building code or any uniform code or administrative regulation related to fire safety or the construction or safety of buildings.
