What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill creates a zoning exemption for peer-run respite centers. Under

current law, certain community living arrangements for adults obtain special zoning

permission. The bill includes peer-run respite centers as a community living

arrangement for adults for zoning exemption purposes. For purposes of a zoning

exemption, the peer-run respite center must do one of the following: 1) meet certain

criteria as specified in the bill; 2) submit a letter of verification from the Department

of Health Services (DHS) that the peer-run respite center meets the specified

criteria; or 3) provide the zoning authority with documentation that the peer-run

respite center receives a grant from DHS.
