Join us on August 13, 2026, from 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM (EDT) for a Lunch & Learn hosted by Kimley-Horn.
This session, “How SB 447 Changes the Permitting Game,” will feature Jay Knight, Director of Acquisitions at Templar Development, and will provide an overview of Georgia's new SB 447 legislation and its impact on the permitting process.
The discussion will explore how the Permit Shot Clock is changing land disturbance and building permit reviews across Georgia, including new review timelines, completeness requirements, and the implications for developers, consultants, and local jurisdictions. Attendees will gain practical insight into how these changes affect project planning, approvals, and relationships with Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs).
Attendees will gain insight into:
Georgia's new SB 447 Permit Shot Clock requirements
The 45-, 20-, and 14-day permit review timelines
The 5-day completeness review process
Automatic approval risks and compliance considerations
Best practices for navigating permitting under the new legislation
This session is designed to provide valuable perspective for developers, engineers, planners, contractors, and land professionals navigating Georgia's evolving permitting landscape.
