Bill summary

House committee substitute makes the following changes to 1st edition.
Amends GS 143-138(b4)(1) to provide that a farm building will not be exempt from building rules if it is used for a spectator event and more than 10 members or the public are present for the event, unless the spectator event meets the following conditions: (1) the event is temporary, defined as a total duration of no more than 120 hours in any calendar year, and (2) the person or organization responsible for the event establishes a fire watch, as defined, for the duration of the event. The previous edition removed language limiting exemption to farm buildings with certain spectator events.
