An act relating to climate change resilience under Act 250

This bill modifies Vermont's Act 250 land use law to better support climate change resilience and infrastructure development. It directly affects utility companies, developers, and local communities by requiring a "certificate of public good" before new electric and gas infrastructure projects can begin construction. The bill also clarifies that certain energy and telecommunications facilities are exempt from specific development definitions under Act 250, while establishing stricter timelines for processing applications and requiring annual performance reports from the Board of Zoning Appeals. Additionally, it mandates that applicants provide notice to landowners and local officials at least 30 days before filing applications, with provisions for dismissing incomplete applications after six months to prevent delays.
