01 Article 5. Remedies and Legal Status Provisions Section 5.1 Remedies In case any building, structure, site, area or object designated as a landmark or within a historic district is about -to be demolished, whether as a result of deliberate neglect or otherwise, materially altered, remodeled, removed or destroyed, except in compliance with this ordinance, the Board of Commissioners or the Commission, with the approval of the Board of Commissioners, may institute any appropriate action or proceeding to prevent such unlawful demolition, destruction, material alteration, remodeling or removal; to restrain, correct or abate such violation; or to prevent any illegal act or conduct with respect to such a building, structure, site, area or object. Such remedies shall be in addition to any others authorized by Chapter 153A of the North Carolina General Statutes for violation of a county ordinance. Actions which may be taken to remedy a given situation are the same as set forth in G.S.160A- 400.11. Section 5.2 Conflict with other Laws Whenever this ordinance or any ordinance adopted pursuant to Part 3C of Article 19 of Chapter 160A of the North Carolina General Statutes requires a longer waiting period or imposes other higher standards with respect to a designated historic landmark or district than are established under any other statute, charter provision or regulation, the provisions of this ordinance shall apply. Whenever the provisions of any other statute, charter provisions, ordinance or regulation require a longer waiting period or impose other higher standards than are established in this ordinance, such statute, charter provision, ordinance or regulation shall govern. This provision essentially states that the more restrictive ordinance shall apply (G.S.160A- 400.10). Adopted this day of , 1991..
