The Planning Commission published proposed amendments to regulations extending the validity of plan endorsements and center designations approved by the Commission prior to Dec. 31, 2009, and expiring this year, until June 30, 2020.
After some time of dormancy, the State Planning Commission has again become active. Recently, the Planning Commission published proposed amendments to regulations that would extend the validity of plan endorsements and center designations set to expire this year. The proposed rule change would mean plan endorsements and center designations approved by the Commission prior to December 31, 2009, and expiring this year, would be extended until June 30, 2020.
The extension period will give the Commission an opportunity to consult with municipalities in regard to what the State Plan process should look like going forward and move forward with whatever changes need to be made. The extended period will also allow the Commission to analyze the plan endorsement process and make any necessary changes, including regulatory changes to encourage community participation.
