SB 29 North Carolina Senate · 2025-2026 Session

Onslow - Delegate Rezoning Authority.

SB 29 is a procedural bill that references only the 6th Senatorial District in North Carolina. It contains no substantive policy changes or mechanisms, as its text solely states it relates to the district and becomes effective upon enactment. The bill does not alter any laws, affect constituents, or establish new authorities. It appears to be a non-substantive reference bill, likely for administrative or record-keeping purposes within the Senate. No voting record or committee action on policy content is available.

MODERATE
This bill was revised to change its focus from a general 6th Senatorial District local act to a specific Onslow County rezoning authority delegation. The substantive content was significantly rewritten to explicitly allow Onslow County's governing board to delegate zoning decision-making power to its planning board, replacing the generic district language with county-specific provisions.
Scope change
The bill's scope changed from applying to the entire 6th Senatorial District to applying specifically to Onslow County only.
SCOPE

Changed the short title from '6th Senatorial District Local Act' to 'Onslow - Delegate Rezoning Authority' and modified the act title to specifically allow Onslow County to delegate rezoning authority.

ELIGIBILITY

Replaced the generic 6th Senatorial District language with specific application to Onslow County in Section 2.

REQUIREMENT

Added detailed statutory language (Section 1) that rewrites G.S. 160D-602 to explicitly allow governing boards to delegate zoning hearing and decision-making authority to planning boards, including procedures for appeals and rescission of delegated authority.

TECHNICAL

Removed the original generic language about the 6th Senatorial District and replaced it with specific Onslow County provisions.
