Understanding Vested Rights is critical for builders and developers. See the vested rights whitepaper to understand this legislation. CBA will continue to follow any legislation impacting Vested Rights and keep our membership informed.

Vested Rights Whitepaper

Several state-level bills introduced this legislative session could impact permitting processes, housing production, labor requirements, and compliance standards for builders and developers.

CBA is tracking relevant legislation, reviewing proposed language, and coordinating with industry partners to assess how these measures may affect local projects. Updates will be shared as bills move through the legislative process.

In addition to current issues, CBA is keeping an eye on emerging topics that may influence the building environment in the months ahead. These may include funding programs, regional planning efforts, environmental regulations, and shifts in market or labor conditions.

As issues evolve, we will update this page to reflect where CBA is focusing its attention and advocacy efforts.
