LC 975 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Creating the private property protection act

This bill establishes the Private Property Protection Act to strengthen private property rights by limiting government restrictions on property use. It requires that any law or regulation restricting private property must be necessary and narrowly tailored to serve a compelling interest in public health or safety. Property owners can sue in court to challenge restrictions that violate these requirements, and if they win, the court will stop enforcement and award attorney fees. The law applies to all state and local government actions but excludes nuisance abatement, permit enforcement, and court-ordered actions.
