Plain-language summary
This bill would require local planning units to get written approval from a neighboring county before approving a development plan, if that development sits next to that county and would significantly affect its roads, utilities, or other infrastructure. It gives neighboring counties a formal say in development decisions that could strain their resources, even if the development is not within their borders. Who it may affect: residents and local governments in counties near planned developments, as well as property developers and builders working on projects close to county lines.
