Summary

The bill mandates that any local government amendment that alters a parcel’s zoning classification or allowed housing density must notify affected landowners at least 30 days in advance and publish a legal advertisement in a local newspaper. It also allows alternative notice methods such as regular mail, email, or public postings, provided the notice is substantially complied with. The goal is to give property owners meaningful advance warning and maintain public participation in zoning changes.
