An Act relative to streamline the judicial review of local land use decisions

Summary

The bill changes how lawsuits against local land‑use boards are handled. It forces plaintiffs to give prompt written notice to all board members, requires an affidavit of service, and restricts courts to reviewing only the board’s official record. It also makes challengers post a bond to cover the property owner’s carrying costs and attorney fees, aiming to curb costly, delayed appeals.
