EFFECT: Modifies the definitions to provide that "affordable housing" must be rented or owned by persons who qualify as very low-income, low-income, or moderate-income households or who are from a special needs population, in addition to the requirement in the underlying bill of such persons having monthly housing costs that do not exceed thirty percent of the household's monthly income.

Provides that a city's application to receive a remittance for sales and use taxes will be evaluated based on the modified definition of affordable housing in this amendment, which will take into consideration whether the type of residential development being attracted by the infrastructure investment is prioritized by the city based on the provision of very low-income, low-income, and moderate-income rental residential units, homeownership projects, and special needs populations.

Makes a technical session law reference update.
