What changed in the latest version
16 added · 19 removedPlain-language change summary
The revised SB 1505 adds provisions that allow counties with populations under 3 million to create a code hearing unit, either within an existing agency or as a separate entity. This unit would focus on quickly addressing and resolving code violations. This change matters because it empowers local governments to handle code enforcement more efficiently, potentially improving community safety and compliance with regulations.
