AI Summary

This bill aims to restrict cities and towns from enacting or altering land use regulations that are considered unfair and excessive on individual landowners without providing compensation or other forms of relief. The key provisions include defining "land use regulations" to include zoning changes, local board decisions, and other actions that limit the use or reduce the fair market value of private property. The bill requires that any landowner affected by such regulations be compensated for the loss of use or potential uses, as well as receive monetary compensation for the reduction in the fair market value of their property.
