A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO AMEND THE CHARTER OF THE CITY OF CHARLOTTE WITH RESPECT TO THE ZONING BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  Section 6.184 of Chapter 713 of the 1965 Session Laws reads as rewritten:
"Section 6.184.  Zoning Board of Adjustment.  The City Council may provide for the appointment of a Board of Adjustment consisting of five members and three alternate members.  Three of the members and two of the alternate members shall be appointed by the City Council and two members and one alternate member shall be appointed by the Mayor.  Alternate members to serve on the Board in the absence of regular members will be appointed in the same manner and for the same term as regular members.  While serving on the Board, alternate members will have the same powers and responsibilities as a regular member.  Members shall be appointed for a term of three years and no member shall serve more than two full consecutive terms.  The Board of Adjustment shall have and exercise all of the powers, duties, and functions enumerated in Section 160A-388 of the General Statutes; provided, however, that a majority vote of the members of the Board shall be necessary to reverse any order, requirement, decision or determination of any administrative official charged with enforcement of the zoning ordinance or to decide in favor of the applicant any matter upon which it is required to pass under any ordinance or to effect any variation from the provisions of the ordinance.  	."
Sec. 2.  This act is effective upon ratification.
