Developers, regulators unite on rules to speed minicipal review of building plans
A new rule proposed by the state would require local code officials to review a developer’s building plans and respond with recommendations within 20 business days.
The new regulation by the Department of Community Affairs would streamline the local approval process and add predictability to commercial developments, a panel of experts said today at an event hosted by the New Jersey chapter of commercial real estate development association NAIOP. The provision would be especially helpful to tenant fit-out projects, they said. (Burd, NJBIZ)
