AI Summary

This bill requires the proponents of any development over 10,000 square feet to submit a Safety and Transportation Impact Review (STIR) to the executive offices of transportation and public safety. The STIR must analyze the effects of the development on vehicle traffic and safety, pedestrian traffic and safety, multi-modal transit, public infrastructure, safe access to open space, and public transportation. The proponents must submit a Draft STIR for consideration by the secretaries of transportation and public safety before receiving any state or municipal zoning relief, certification, authorization, approvals, or permits. The secretaries have 90 days to respond with comments and request more information, and only after they deem the Final STIR to be sufficient can the development be eligible to seek the necessary approvals.
