Growth Management Hearings Board
The Growth Management Hearings Board is a regional body that resolves disputes related to land use, growth, and development policies. It reviews local government decisions on issues like zoning, building permits, and growth plans to ensure they comply with state laws. The board provides a fair, independent process for developers, residents, and government agencies to challenge or defend development actions. Its goal is to balance community growth with sustainable planning, ensuring development aligns with legal requirements and community interests.
