Enhances requirements for applicant seeking to locate substance use disorder treatment center within 500 feet of school.
S 1245 requires applicants seeking to locate a substance use disorder treatment center within 500 feet of a school building (used for children aged 5-18) to notify local municipal and county planning authorities before submitting their license application. Applicants must also request a resolution of local support from the municipality’s governing body and submit this resolution along with their license application. The bill modifies existing licensing rules to add these community notification and approval steps for new applications. This applies only to new applications submitted after the bill’s enactment date.
