AAB & FHA requirements for Multi-family Buildings in MBTA Communities:
A Primer for Building Inspectors, Planners and Planning Boards

More than 70 MBTA communities have adopted the required 3A multi-family zoning.  The Architectural Access Board has specific code requirements for multi-family buildings that professional Building Commissioners, Inspectors and Planners must check for development plan compliance during site plan review and throughout construction.  The Fair Housing Act also has design and construction requirements for new construction multi-family buildings that will apply and should be reviewed.  Learn the basics from this presentation by Kathryn Denis, Senior Associate, KMA Architecture & Accessibility, recorded May 28, 2024. AICP CM credit approved
