Calculating the Majority Vote Required for Variances and Development Regulation Amendments

Published for Coates' Canons on December 07, 2021.

North Carolina statutes have specific rules that address calculation of the majority required to approve a variance or to amend a development regulation. The statutes specify how an absent member or a member with a conflict of interest affect the majority required. The statutes also have a special rule that applies to city council members who are present but do not vote on a development regulation amendment.
