State files new guidelines for MBTA zoning act after SJC calls law 'unenforcable'
Briefly

"We want to make sure these communities have adequate time to develop their zoning, conduct public engagement activities and bring that zoning to their local legislative bodies," said Ed Augustus.
"Communities that did not meet prior deadlines must now submit a new action plan to the state, outlining their strategy to reach compliance, by 11:59 p.m. on Feb. 13, 2025."
In the SJC decision, Chief Justice Kimberly Budd noted that the EOHLC, which determines zoning compliance, failed to comply with the Administrative Procedure Act.
The emergency regulations are effective for 90 days and aim to provide communities the necessary time to comply with zoning regulations set forth by the MBTA Communities Act.
