An Act To Amend the Laws Governing the Review of Subdivisions
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:
Sec. 1. 30-A MRSA §4401, sub-§4, ¶G, as enacted by PL 1989, c. 104, Pt. A, §45 and Pt. C, §10 and amended by c. 497, §2, is further amended to read:
 
G. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection, leased dwelling units are not subject to subdivision review if the municipal reviewing authority has determined that the units are otherwise subject to municipal review at least as stringent as that required under this subchapter.
 
SUMMARY
This bill amends the definition of "subdivision" in the laws regarding planning and land use regulation for subdivisions to specify that dwelling units are not subject to subdivision review if the municipal reviewing authority has determined that the units are otherwise subject to municipal review that is at least as stringent. Current law specifies that leased dwelling units are not subject to subdivision review.
