CAR Capitol Connection:
Government Affairs Update
Colorado Association of REALTORS®
|
Today marks a big legislative win for the Colorado Association of REALTORS®. Colorado’s policymakers introduced a proposal that would allow inclusionary zoning practices and open the door to rent control at the local level. CAR successfully amended the bill to clarify that a local government cannot enact rent control policies on existing units. As REALTORS® know, our state struggles to find sufficient housing inventory to meet consumer’s growing needs. |
