Bill Summary

For legislation relative to variances. Municipalities and Regional Government.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing Massachusetts law on variances. It states that if the rights authorized by a variance are not exercised within one year of the date of grant, those rights shall lapse. However, the permit granting authority can extend the time for exercise of such rights for up to an additional six months if the grantee applies for the extension prior to the expiration of the one-year period. If the authority does not grant the extension within 30 days, the rights may be reestablished only after a new notice and hearing process.
