HB318

Require appeal process for certain local government health requirements

Complete·5/1/25

Montana HB318 requires an appeal process for local government health requirements added after sewage disposal system permits are issued.

Montana HB318 amends the Montana Code to require an appeal process for local government health requirements added to a sewage disposal system after a permit to construct has been issued. If local regulations do not prohibit adding requirements post-permit, they must allow an appeal to the local governing body for requirements costing over $500 to implement, challenging whether these are more stringent than state standards or local regulations. This ensures a review process for significant changes in health requirements after initial permits are granted.
