Bill > S221

This bill amends North Carolina law to allow local government boards of adjustment to conduct remote meetings during declared emergencies, even if not all members subject to a quasi-judicial proceeding consent to the remote meeting. The bill specifies requirements for remote meetings, such as providing public access, recording communications, and conducting roll call votes. It also allows boards to conduct public hearings and quasi-judicial proceedings remotely, with additional requirements to protect due process rights. The bill applies only to certain counties and municipalities in North Carolina and is effective for proceedings initiated after the bill becomes law.
