AN ACT relating to ensuring fair permitting and licensing practices.

Summary

The bill forces state and local agencies to publish unambiguous criteria for licenses and permits and to approve or deny applications within 30 days unless a different deadline is written into law. If an agency does not act, the application is treated as approved unless it is incomplete and the applicant fails to fix the deficiency. Applicants denied a permit can request an administrative hearing and may also pursue a speedy judicial review of the agency’s final order.
