VirginiaSubdivision ordinance; plan review by designated agent, definition of "designated agent."
What it does
Subdivision ordinance; plan review by designated agent. Removes planning commission and governing body approval authority for the administrative review process for plats and plans and assigns such authority solely to a designated agent, defined in the bill. However, the bill provides that the local planning commission may serve as the designated agent of any locality with a population of 5,000 or less.
More detail
The bill also expedites the review process by shortening the timeframe for forwarding plats and plans to state agencies for review.
