	SECTION ____.  Subchapter DD, Chapter 2306, Local Government 
Code, is amended by adding Section 2306.6736 to read as follows:
	Sec. 2306.6736.  LIMITATION ON CERTAIN ZONING REQUIREMENTS.  
(a) Notwithstanding Section 2306.6705(5) or any other law, the 
department  may not require an applicant to provide evidence that 
the development is permitted under any applicable zoning ordinances 
before the 180th day after the date the applicant submits an 
application under this chapter.
	(b)  The department shall grant an applicant a reasonable 
extension of the 180-day period described by Subsection (a) if the 
applicant provides evidence that the applicant has made a good 
faith effort to provide the evidence described by Subsection (a) 
but has failed to provide the evidence because the political 
subdivision that adopted the applicable zoning ordinance has not 
responded to the applicant's request for a determination concerning 
zoning compliance.
