A BILL FOR

HB3152

LRB103 25769 HLH 52118 b

1 AN ACT concerning local government.

2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,

3 represented in the General Assembly:

4 Article 5.

5 Section 5-1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Home

6 Buyer Savings Accounts Act.

7 Section 5-5. Legislative findings. The General Assembly

8 finds and recognizes that the American Dream has always been

9 closely associated with owning your own home. However, for

10 many reasons, it is becoming more and more difficult to

11 achieve the goal of homeownership in Illinois and throughout

12 the country. The General Assembly finds and recognizes that

13 homeownership provides more than a dream to an individual

14 person or family, but that an increase in homeownership rates

15 in Illinois has a direct impact on the quality of our

16 communities and schools, economic and education opportunities,

17 and safe streets. The General Assembly is intent on finding

18 methods to make it easier for those in Illinois to achieve

19 their goal of homeownership for the first time. It is the

20 General Assembly's intent with this Act to provide a

21 tax-incentivized savings account for qualified first-time and

22 certain second-chance home buyers, which in turn can be used

4 Sec. 110. Electric Vehicle Oriented (EVO) Housing Pilot

5 Program.

6 (a) The inventory of available homes for sale in Illinois

7 has been in continuous decline for multiple years. The lack of

8 inventory contributes directly to affordability, making it

9 more difficult to purchase a home, even for those individuals

10 who have incomes at or close to the median income of the area

11 in which they live. This problem is especially frustrating

12 where a potential REV Illinois Project faces the prospect of

13 little to no housing options for the employees of that

14 project. The General Assembly intends to authorize the

15 creation of a pilot grant program for electric vehicle

16 oriented (EVO) housing, with the goal of incentivizing the

17 construction of new homes near REV Illinois Projects.

18 (b) Subject to appropriation, the Department shall

19 establish a pilot grant program to encourage the construction

20 and rehabilitation of housing located near a REV Illinois

21 Project. Funding may be used for the acquisition,

22 construction, development, predevelopment, or rehabilitation

23 of a qualified development as provided in subsection (d).

24 (c) "Qualified development" means a project that (i) is

25 geographically located within 10 miles of a REV Illinois

HB3152

- 16 -

1 Project, (ii) involves the new construction of 2 or more

2 single-family homes, including detached homes, attached

3 duplex, triplex or fourplex homes, and condominiums, and (iii)

4 results in the construction of homes that, according to the

5 federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, are

6 affordable for either home ownership or rental and that are

7 occupied, reserved, or marketed for occupancy by households

8 with a gross household income that is greater than 80% but less

9 than 120% of the area median household income.

10 (d) The EVO housing pilot grant program shall provide for

11 grants of up to 10% of the land acquisition costs and 15% of

12 the construction, development, predevelopment, or

13 rehabilitation costs of a qualified development.

14 (e) Project sponsors who wish to participate in the EVO

15 housing pilot grant program shall submit a grant application

16 to the Department in accordance with rules adopted by the

17 Department.

18 (f) No application for the EVO Housing Grant Pilot Program

19 shall be accepted by the Department after December 31, 2026.

20 Article 20.
