North Carolina H876 mandates that local governments complete administrative reviews of development applications within two business days of receipt. If the local government cannot complete the review within the prescribed time, the permit applicant can choose to contract with the Department of Insurance or a licensed professional engineer or architect for independent third-party plan reviews. The bill also allows for the creation of a marketplace pool of qualified Code-enforcement officials within the Department of Insurance to assist in building code enforcement.
