Establishes criteria for third-party standing in appeals against land use decisions by local boards of zoning appeals.
Allows third parties to appeal decisions of local boards of zoning appeals if they meet specific criteria. A person must show they own or occupy property near the affected land, have suffered a particularized harm, and have a direct interest in the outcome. The board's decision is presumed correct unless the appealing party can prove it was erroneous. The court can review the decision and may order the appealing party to pay costs if the appeal is deemed frivolous.
