relative to restricting municipal downzoning inconsistent with existing neighborhood density.

Summary

The bill adds a new state rule that a residential building permit cannot be denied when a licensed architect confirms the proposed density fits the surrounding area. Property owners must submit an architect‑prepared density analysis, and municipalities must issue the permit in a non‑discretionary, ministerial manner. It leaves municipalities free to enforce building and safety codes.
