Extends time period required for public notice of certain land use applications.

This bill (A 3804) extends the required public notice period for certain land use applications from 10 to 21 days before a hearing. It directly affects developers, municipalities, and nearby property owners by requiring longer advance notice for projects like major subdivisions, site plans, or modifications to development approvals. The key change amends Section 7.1 of New Jersey's land use law to mandate 21 days of notice, while maintaining existing exceptions for minor site plans or conventional reviews. Public notice must still be published in local newspapers and delivered to property owners within 200 feet of the proposed project.
