The section lets the Secretary award a grant to study the design and feasibility of a standardized uniform commercial code for modular homes. The study must evaluate the usefulness of a standard coding system for serializing and securing modules, streamlining design and construction, and improving innovation, and a means of tying such a code to financing incentives.

What the document actually says

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 302
That sentence, in plain words

The housing agency may pay for a study. The study asks whether one shared code for these homes could work.

What this is about

A code here means a shared way of numbering and tracking each piece. That could make design and building simpler. The study also asks how it might tie to loans.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
