  • Changes the trigger date for newly incorporated municipalities' comprehensive plan requirements from plans "adopted" after January 1, 2019, to plans "effective" after January 1, 2016, requiring such plans to incorporate and vest all pre-existing development orders without limitation
  • Allows a party to a development agreement to amend or cancel the agreement with the local government without obtaining consent from other parcel owners originally subject to the agreement, unless the change directly modifies those owners' allowable uses or entitlements
