The amendment changes the provisions regarding municipal zoning commissions by eliminating the requirement for a special permit or special exception for existing uses, buildings, or structures that become nonconforming due to new zoning regulations. This means that municipalities will not have the authority to impose additional permitting requirements for these pre-existing entitlements, which could simplify the process for maintaining such uses.
