A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT TO PROVIDE THAT THE TOWN OF FRANKLIN NEED NOT MAIL ZONING NOTICES TO AREAS NEWLY ADDED TO ITS EXTRATERRITORIAL JURISDICTION.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
Section 1.  G.S. 160A-384 reads as rewritten:
"§ 160A-384.  Method of procedure.
The city council shall provide for the manner in which zoning regulations and restrictions and the boundaries of zoning districts shall be determined, established and enforced, and from time to time amended, supplemented or changed, in accordance with the provisions of this Article.  The procedures adopted pursuant to this section shall provide that whenever there is a zoning classification action involving a parcel of land, the owner of that parcel of land as shown on the county tax listing, and the owners of all parcels of land abutting that parcel of land as shown on the county tax listing, shall be mailed a notice of the proposed classification by first class mail at the last addresses listed for such owners on the county tax abstracts; provided that this sentence does not apply in the case of a total rezoning of all property within the corporate boundaries of a municipality; provided further that this sentence shall not apply in the case of initial zoning of areas newly included in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the town.  The person or persons mailing such notices shall certify to the City Council that fact, and such certificate shall be deemed conclusive in the absence of fraud."
Sec. 2.  This act applies to the Town of Franklin only.
Sec. 3.  This act is effective upon ratification, but expires June 30, 1990.
