BACKGROUND
In 2013 the NC legislature approved a local bill requesting the Rowan County Airport be de-annexed from Salisbury City Limits, but the action did not remove the land area from Salisbury’s extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction (ETJ). A recent conflict between the City’s land development ordinance and an airport-related building project prompted the County to request the City consider relinquishing its ETJ applicable to the airport. The City was receptive and has scheduled a public hearing on the ETJ recension for September 20, 2022.
NCGS 160D-202(h) provides that when a city relinquishes zoning jurisdiction over an area to a county, the city’s regulations remain in effect until the county has adopted jurisdiction over the area or for sixty (60) days from the date of action by the city, whichever is sooner.
The Planning Board conducted a courtesy hearing at its August 22, 2022 meeting and provides a favorable recommendation for Z 07-22.
