As introduced, Bill 26-542 would require that DHCD offer administrative assistance to affordable housing development projects to promote prompt attention from utility partners in the permitting process. It would require DHCD to make technical expert consultants available to these same projects to reduce how often utility connection design issues catch developers off guard. DHCD staff would also spearhead a coordinated effort between government agencies and utilities to integrate the utilities’ permitting updates into existing government data systems for tracking permit issues.
