Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the potential adoption of the Model Land Development Code (MLDC) by North Carolina. The MLDC is a set of principles drafted by the American Law Institute to help states modernize and expand the authority of local governments to plan and regulate development. The author delves into the history and purpose of the MLDC, examining its provisions that focus on consolidating land use regulations, improving procedural guidelines for adoption and enforcement, and allowing local governments more flexibility in organizing for planning and enforcement. The book also analyzes provisions that aim to enhance coordination among local and state agencies, increase predictability in regulation application, and clarify the nature of local plans and programs. Additionally, the author explores the MLDC's guidance on the General Assembly's intent in granting such powers and its provisions for more adaptable treatment of existing land uses. Throughout the book, the author considers the broader context of land use planning and regulation, discussing issues such as the extent of regulations in rural areas, coordination between transportation departments and local governments, and measures to provide developers with greater flexibility in project design. This book offers valuable insights for policymakers, planners, and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of land use planning and regulation.
