BASE to Attend Forum on Sea Level Rise in North Carolina

On January 14th and 15th the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources is hosting a Science Forum on Sea Level Rise in North Carolina. 

The forum will be the vehicle through which the N.C. Coastal resources Commission (CRC) will release what is presumed to be the “finalized” preliminary report on the current and projected rates of sea level rise in North Carolina.  The report will project sea level rise ranges in 25-year intervals through 2100.  The CRC, as well as other DENR agencies can use these metrics as the foundation for policy development and adaptation planning.  This issue is one that your BASE Governmental Affairs staff has been tracking and monitoring for well over a year now.  For a complete overview of the forum click hereclick here.  For a complete overview of the presentations click hereclick here.

On December 8, 2009, the North Carolina Court of Appeals struck down Union County's Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance (APFO) and its Voluntary Mitigation Payment (VMP). The court agreed with the plaintiffs' argument that the North Carolina General Assembly "neither expressly nor impliedly authorized the defendant (county) to adopt the APFO"--a precedent which could have extremely positive impacts for many of our developers.  To read the entire court documents click hereclick here.

NAHB Affordable Housing Webinar on Dec. 14  Bridging the Affordability Gap

Housing industry professionals interested in workforce housing approaches that work should plan to attend the NAHB webinar, “Housing That Works: State and Local Solutions to Housing Affordability,” beginning at 2:00 p.m. Monday Dec. 14th.  The 90-minute webinar is free and the last in a series of webinars hosted by NAHB’s Land Development Department.
The housing affordability gap is a multidimensional problem that demands many different tools and a comprehensive strategy to successfully meet the varied housing needs of people with different incomes. No single strategy can fix the shortage, and no single strategy works in every market.  NAHB has conducted research and developed new publications and resources to help fill this information gap, with a view to sharing ideas across communities and fostering better solutions to meeting housing needs.  To view the latest reports and trends click here.
