Relating to: limitations on extraterritorial subdivision ordinances of incorporated municipalities.
Failed to pass pursuant to Senate Joint Resolution 1
Summary
The bill prevents municipalities from denying approval of subdivision plats or certified survey maps solely because of the proposed use of land in their extraterritorial jurisdiction, unless the denial follows a specific municipal plan or regulation. It defines four permissible reasons for denial and allows towns to recover reasonable attorney fees when they successfully enforce the rule. The goal is to curb arbitrary rejections and ensure consistent land‑use decisions.
