That sentence, in plain words

A housing official must publish a guide. It has to come out within three years. The guide is meant to help build enough homes for people at every income.

What this is about

The guide is advice, not an order. It covers rules set by states and rules set by towns. It says what has worked in other places.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
