An act relating to removing the sunset on 30 V.S.A. § 248a

This bill removes an expiration date (sunset) for the Vermont Public Utility Commission's authority to approve telecommunications facilities under 30 V.S.A. § 248a. It directly affects telecom companies seeking permits for infrastructure and the Public Utility Commission, which would no longer face a deadline for processing new applications. The key provision deletes the existing clause stating that no new applications could be considered after July 1, 2026. The change takes effect on July 1, 2026, ensuring the Commission's authority to issue certificates of public good for telecom facilities continues indefinitely.
