Version:

Creates a process for expediting the review of residential transit-oriented development on certain parcels within county-designated transit oriented development zones that have a low risk of affecting historically significant resources.  Authorizes lead agencies, including county governments, to make determinations on the potential effects of a project.  Creates a ninety-day limit to concur or not concur with project effect determinations.  Provides that projects with written concurrence are exempt from further review unless there is a significant change to the project or additional historic properties, aviation artifacts, or burial sites are identified within the project area.
