S.314

Eliminate ETJ Overlap

Introduced·3/17/25

North Carolina S314 aims to prevent regulatory overlap by limiting city extraterritorial jurisdiction in counties with zoning regulations.

North Carolina S314 modifies the extraterritorial jurisdiction of cities to prevent overlap with county zoning regulations. The bill restricts cities from exercising their powers beyond their corporate limits without county approval. It also prohibits cities from extending their jurisdiction into areas where the county has adopted and enforces zoning and subdivision regulations, unless the city and county have agreed on the jurisdiction area. This change aims to streamline land use decisions and avoid regulatory conflicts.
