require that counties provide written notice to township supervisors of conditional use applications and appeals.
Signed by the Governor
Summary
The legislation adds new notice and hearing rules for anyone applying for a conditional‑use permit that would significantly increase the load on public roads or rights‑of‑way. Applicants must send certified‑mail notice to the approving authority – typically the township board or similar body – at least 45 days before filing, and the authority must schedule a public hearing and issue a written decision within set time frames. The goal is to give local officials early warning and a chance to require haul‑road agreements or other conditions before a permit is granted.
