    AI summary This amendment replaces the entire bill and changes the "smart planning" principles from focusing on sustainability and community character to focusing on economic growth, property rights, and public safety. It also updates requirements for local comprehensive plans to prioritize expanding housing supply, growing business opportunities, and reducing tax burdens.
