Introduced Text

Establishes timelines for Coventry's new construction, including one year for final approval, two years for building permits, and temporary unit.

The bill sets specific timelines for Coventry's new construction projects. It mandates that the period between preliminary approval and final approval for a development project should not exceed one year. Once final approval is granted, the issuance of a building permit must occur within two years. If a building permit is not requested within this two-year period, the application will be void, requiring the development process to restart.
