Summary

HB 450 revises state and county land‑use rules to require traffic impact studies based on peak‑hour trips (500 trips for residential and other development) and to credit off‑site improvements against impact fees. It also mandates county‑state agreements for traffic analysis of rezoning and new access, requires public hearings, and establishes a minimum of four dwelling units per acre with multifamily options in designated growth areas. The changes aim to standardize safety and infrastructure reviews while encouraging higher‑density housing.
