This bill requires companies or groups that use eminent domain to take private property for public purposes to file proof that they have obtained a required siting permit from the Public Utilities Commission along with their condemnation petition in court. The change ensures that landowners and courts can verify upfront that the project has the necessary state approval before the legal process to take their property begins.
