North Carolina H801 directs the Legislative Research Commission to study "paper towns" and report on their service provision and incorporation.

North Carolina H801 mandates the Legislative Research Commission to investigate the status of "paper towns" in the state. These are towns that exist legally but do not provide adequate services to their residents. The study will assess whether towns incorporated since 1995 are fulfilling the services proposed in their incorporation petitions. It will also evaluate if current services are sufficient for continued taxation and regulation. The Commission will review incorporation criteria and recommend any necessary changes to ensure towns provide adequate services.
