Fiscal Detail and Notes
This amendment allows a municipality the option to waive the right to apply the provisions under the Informed Growth Act for a land use permit and removes the state mandate.  As amended, the bill still provides a $40,000 fee charged to permit applicants to be paid to the State Planning Office as reimbursement to municipalities for activities still required if the option to waive is not exercised.
