Land Use Review Board

The Statute - Act 181 (2024) 

 

The Land Use Review Board administers the Act 250 program. The Board's primary responsibility is to promulgate and enhance operational accountability for fair, efficient and effective administration of Act 250's land use permitting program. This includes management of five Act 250 district offices, recruitment, training, supervision of staff, and providing administrative and technical guidance and oversight support to nine district commissions. 

In 2025, the Land Use Review Board replaced the Natural Resources Board. In addition to the Board's primary responsibilities mentioned above, the Land Use Review Board is tasked with transitioning Act 250 to location-based jurisdiction and creating new areas of exemption that will promote responsible development, as well as delineating natural resource areas for additional protections. The Board will also be responsible for rulemaking, guidance, and policy initiatives to achieve statutory and internal performance standards.
