Creates a new section of KRS Chapter 100 to define “retail filling station” and “electric vehicle charging station”; prohibits local governments from using the zoning process or adopting any measure to prohibit or restrict the ability of a retail filling station from locating in areas in which similar businesses may locate, to discriminate against the use or location of a retail filling station, or to treat retail filling stations differently from electric vehicle charging stations; and allows restrictions on retail filling stations, provided they are similar to those for other businesses, do not prohibit their operation, and are not in conflict with state or federal law.
