Currently, the state's <br />Municipal Land Use Law requires such reexamination every six years. <br />The proposed legislation would also allow "heavily developed towns <br />to waive the master plan re-examination if the State Planning Com- <br />mission determines it is `built out' and `there have been no significant <br />changes in development and other measurable characteristics' since the <br />last review." <br />Source: The Star -Ledger; www.ni.com <br />OHIO <br />The Cleveland City Council is considering a proposed ordinance <br />that would allow farm stands in residential neighborhoods. The pro- <br />posed legislation would also "change[] zoning restrictions so that gar- <br />dens [could] be created on vacant property, ease[] restrictions on fenc- <br />ing and allow[] urban gardeners to compost." <br />Source: The Plain Dealer; httb://hlo!.cleveland.com <br />12 <br />© 2010 Thomson Reuters <br />66 <br />AN <br />
