Permit Transparency Act: Easier Access to Application Status Information
This act aims to make it easier for citizens to track the progress of their permit applications. Government agencies will be required to provide detailed information on their websites about the status of each application, including stages, duration, and estimated decision timelines. This will give citizens better insight into the process and allow them to plan their activities more easily.
Key points
All permit-issuing agencies must create a webpage with information on application status.
These pages will include stage descriptions, duration of each stage, current application status, and contact information for reviewers.
Citizens will gain access to estimated timelines for decisions on their applications.
