If this act requires a municipality, including a county, to forward, send or submit a proposed comprehensive plan or amendment or a proposed land use ordinance or amendment for review, comments or recommendations, or an adopted comprehensive plan, land use ordinance or amendment, the proposed or adopted plan, ordinance or amendment may be transmitted electronically. The transmittal may include an electronic document or a link to a publicly accessible document online, provided the electronic document is in PDF format or similar standard which accurately reproduces the original.
