House/ filed
Summary
The bill adds “protect property rights” to a county’s land‑use purposes and defines a “qualifying parcel.” It obligates counties to accept and process plan‑review applications for single‑family homes on those parcels if zoning setbacks, utility and health approvals, and street‑frontage dedication are met. The goal is to make it easier for owners to build on land that existed before modern subdivision rules.
