The bill HB2100 amends sections 41-1074 and 41-1079 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, focusing on licensing time frames. It introduces new requirements for state agencies to make a comprehensive list of items needed for an application to be considered administratively complete available on their websites. Additionally, agencies must provide applicants with a copy of this list when they obtain an application.
The bill also changes the process for handling applications deemed incomplete. If an agency issues a written notice of deficiencies that is substantive in nature within the administrative completeness review time frame, the application is considered administratively complete. Agencies are prohibited from determining the substantive merits or outcome of an application during the administrative completeness review time frame and from making a final decision based on documents or reports not included in the application or the comprehensive list, unless the applicant had the opportunity to challenge them before submitting the application.
