AN ACT relating to ensuring fair permitting and licensing practices.

This bill would require Kentucky public agencies to only deny permits or licenses for reasons that are clearly stated in law. It sets a 30-day deadline for agencies to act on applications when no other timeline is already in place, and it creates a process for applicants to appeal or follow up if an agency misses that deadline or denies their application. Who it may affect: anyone applying for a government-issued permit or license in Kentucky, including individuals and businesses seeking approval from state or local agencies.
