Authorizes installation of automatic standby generators in certain residences without zoning or planning board approval.

Summary

The bill makes automatic standby generators a permitted accessory use for one‑ and two‑family homes, so owners can install them without applying for a variance. Installations must follow standard setback rules, and a municipal zoning officer must approve any required 5‑foot side and rear yard setbacks, while front‑yard placement needs explicit local approval. This streamlines backup power installation for residents.
