760 C.M.R. 72.07
M.G.L. c. 40A, § 3A states that a compliant Multi-family zoning district must allow Multi-family housing As of right, and that such multi-family housing shall be without age restrictions and shall be suitable for families with children. EOHLC will deem a Multi-family zoning district to comply with these requirements as long as the zoning does not require Multi-family uses to include units with age restrictions, and does not limit or restrict the size of the units, cap the number of bedrooms, the size of bedrooms, or the number of occupants, or impose a minimum age of occupants. Limits, if any, on the size of units or number of bedrooms established by state law or regulation are not relevant to M.G.L. c. 40A, § 3A or to determinations of compliance made pursuant to 760 CMR 72.00.
