Bill summary

Amends SL 2022-24, Section 2, which sets out additional requirements that must be met when Davidson County conducts an annexation under Part 4 of Article 4A of GS Chapter 160A, including that if the Davidson County Board of Commissioners (Board) finds, after a public hearing, that the interests of the inhabitants of the county and the area proposed for annexation will be best served by the annexation, the Board must adopt a resolution approving the annexation and the governing body of the municipality may proceed with the adoption of the annexation ordinance. Amends the impacts of such a resolution, to now provide that if the resolution is adopted and a municipality adopts the annexation ordinance, any rezoning of the satellite annexation area or any part thereof within 60 days from the date of the adoption of the annexation ordinance must be done in accordance with the terms and conditions of the municipality's unified development ordinance adopted under GS Chapter 160D. Retains the requirement that approval be obtained from both the municipality's governing body and the Board before the municipality may rezone any satellite area that includes the annexed area or any part thereof. Adds that these provisions do not apply to an area that ceases to constitute satellite corporate limits and becomes part of the primary corporate limits. Requires that the area that becomes part of the primary corporate limits must be rezoned in accordance with the terms and conditions of the municipality's unified development ordinance. Applies to annexations initiated on or after July 1, 2023.
