Deadline tickets only for applications submitted after October 16
This is important because, according to the regulations in force, from January 1, 2026, municipalities are to issue the so-called term vouchers, i.e. valid for five years.
— “Wuzetka” will expire after five years from the date on which it became legally valid. Decisions that cannot be appealed against in court or for which a final judgment of an administrative court has been issued are final, and not those that cannot be appealed against to a higher authority – explains Dr. Agnieszka Grabowska-Toś from the Kania Stachura Toś Legal Advisors' Office, expert of the Real Estate Committee of the National Chamber of Commerce.
If the president vetoed the amendment, all decisions of the General Meeting that did not become final before January 1, 2026 would be valid only for five years.

Facilitations for municipalities when adopting general plans
The amendment also introduces significant simplifications for municipalities when preparing general plans. It's about speeding up the work. Municipalities should adopt them by the end of the year. If they do not do this, they risk investment paralysis. They will not issue any decision on development conditions and will not adopt new local spatial development plans, because where there will be no commune plan, this will speed up the work on these documents.
Thanks to the amendment, instead of agreeing on draft plans with the relevant authorities and institutions, communes will only be able to seek their opinions. Pursuant to the Act, new regulations will apply to draft general plans under preparation, and previously obtained arrangements will be treated as opinions.
In turn, proceedings conducted by public administration bodies and administrative courts in connection with the refusal to agree on the draft general plan of the commune will be discontinued.
