5 Bills Signed by Wes Moore That Will Impact Housing and AI Development in Maryland
Maryland Governor Wes Moore has signed five new bills aimed at addressing housing shortages and integrating artificial intelligence into public education. While these laws are intended to streamline housing development, they may inadvertently add more regulatory complexity. The Maryland Housing Certainty Act, for example, freezes local zoning laws but still allows for extensive local approvals, complicating the development process.
