Agenda (PDF)
The Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC) meeting on April 29, 2026, included a presentation and discussion on "Yes in God's Back Yard" (YIGBY) laws. The presentation focused on Florida's Senate Bill 1730 (2025) and House Bill 1389 (2026), which aim to facilitate affordable housing development on land owned by religious institutions. The committee listened to a virtual presentation titled "Unlocking Faith-Based Land: Florida's YIGBY Laws Explained" and engaged in a discussion. The document outlines the differences between the optional local YIGBY tool (SB 1730) and the mandatory state mandate (HB 1389), detailing eligibility, what can be built, affordability requirements, and local control. It highlights that the local option covers more ground, including parcels 3 acres or smaller, land contiguous to houses of worship, land with houses of worship active for less than 10 years, and single-family housing, whereas the state mandate is more restrictive. Alachua County data shows significantly more qualifying parcels and acres under the local option compared to the state mandate. The document encourages continued local advocacy to leverage the local option effectively.
