An Act amending the act of July 31, 1968 (P.L.805, No.247), known as the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code, in zoning, further providing for enforcement notice.
This bill amends Pennsylvania's Municipalities Planning Code to update the language used in enforcement notices issued by local zoning authorities. The change clarifies that failing to comply with such a notice within the specified time frame constitutes a violation and allows the notice to explicitly state that additional penalties may accrue for each day the violation continues. This provision directly affects municipalities, zoning hearing boards, and property owners by making the consequences of non-compliance more transparent in official communications. The bill takes effect 60 days after it is passed.
