Kentucky HB730 revises regulations for residential building permits, including time limits for permit issuance and inspections.

Kentucky HB730 amends the state's building permit regulations, establishing specific time frames for regulatory authorities to issue permits and conduct inspections. The bill mandates that regulatory authorities notify applicants within three business days if their application is complete, except for required plan reviews or inspections. It sets a fourteen-day limit for plan reviews and a five-day limit for inspections. If a regulatory authority cannot meet these deadlines, it must issue a temporary permit and refund fees.
