1. Rezone the property.

2. Issue a building or other development permit, including an application for construction or installation of a publicly or privately operated utility, for the property.

3. Subdivide the property or otherwise divide the property, including any land division into five or fewer lots, whether for residential, industrial, commercial or any other use.

This documentation shall include a basic outline of the procedures the county uses when processing land use change applications and deadlines for submitting official comments.

D. This section shall not be construed to allow or require a county to deny any use or occupancy permit, building permit, zoning approval or any other permit, approval or other authorization based on the existence of the military electronics range or its proximity to a parcel of real estate.

E. This section shall not be construed to require a county to meet the notification requirements of this section if the state land department has not prepared a map of the military electronics range.

F. For the purposes of this section, "military electronics range" means the geographically defined area in which electronic communication, monitoring or other devices are routinely tested as a part of the military mission of a military installation.
