Restore Down-Zoning Auth./Woodfin.

This bill restores the Town of Woodfin's ability to start down-zoning projects without needing permission from every property owner involved. It defines down-zoning as actions that reduce land density, limit allowed uses, or create non-conforming structures, and requires local government initiation for such changes. The law applies only to Woodfin and works backward to cover zoning decisions made on or after December 11, 2024.
