Youngkin orders more streamlined permit, licensing process

By DAVE RESS, Richmond Times-Dispatch

State agencies should cut the number of steps individuals and businesses need to go through to get a permit or license, Gov. Glenn Youngkin says. He has issued an executive order directing them to detail plans to do so by the end of the year. Youngkin’s latest executive order also says state agencies should consider ways that permits that require case-by-case evaluation can be converted to allow more standardized and streamlined evaluation. The order calls on agencies to drop obsolete and barely issued permits. It notes that 46 had no applicants last year and 41 had only one.
