§ 44-66. State action on the nomination.

(a)

If both the Board of County Commissioners and the Historic Preservation Commission agree that the property is eligible and should be nominated, or if only one makes a negative finding on the nomination, the State Historic Preservation Officer will place the nomination before the North Carolina National Register Advisory Committee for consideration at the earliest possible quarterly meeting.

(b)

If both the County Commissioners and the Historic Preservation Commission make negative findings on the nomination, the nomination materials shall be returned to the State. The State shall take no further action unless, within 30 days of the return of the nomination, a written appeal is filed with the State Historic Preservation Office by any interested third party. If such an appeal is filed, the State Historic Preservation Officer shall place the nomination before the National Register Advisory Committee at the earliest possible quarterly meeting.

(c)

After a nomination is recommended by the National Register Advisory Committee and signed by the State Historic Preservation Officer, the nomination shall be transmitted to the National Register. The State shall include with its recommendation the comments and opinions of the Board of County Commissioners and the Historic Preservation Commission, together with any appeal which may have been filed.
