The proposed "Licensing Time Frames Transparency Act" aims to enhance transparency in the licensing and permitting processes managed by the Construction Industries Division of the Regulation and Licensing Department, as well as local agencies with delegated authority. The Act mandates these agencies to periodically publish detailed information regarding the time frames for processing licenses, permits, and other regulatory approvals. Specifically, agencies are required to submit data every January, April, July, and October, which includes the types of permissions issued, the number of final agency actions taken, and various time frame metrics such as average, median, and maximum time frames for each type of permission.

Key definitions are established within the Act, including terms such as "final agency action," "average pending time frame," and "total time frame," which provide clarity on the metrics to be reported. The Act is set to take effect on January 1, 2026, and aims to improve accountability and efficiency in the regulatory process by ensuring that stakeholders have access to timely information regarding the status of their applications.
