Historic Character Area Zoning Changes Video - March 1, 2023 Board of Commissioners Meeting


On March 1, 2023, Nags Head's Board of Commissioners will hold a public hearing to consider revisions to the Town's Unified Development Ordinance and a Zoning Map amendment pertaining to the Historic Character Area and the October 19, 2023 moratorium. 

The Town is proposing to change the zoning classification for properties between US 158/South Croatan Highway and NC12/South Virginia Dare Trail from Hollowell Street south to Danube Street. This proposal also includes properties on the east side of Memorial Avenue from Bainbridge Street south to Hollowell Street. These zoning changes would create consistency with existing land uses and would be compatible with the current intensity of development in this area. The changes recommend that:

  • some properties in the C-2, General Commercial district be rezoned to R-3, High Density Residential 
  • other properties be rezoned from C-2, General Commercial, to a new zoning district, C-5, Historic Character Commercial. 

Watch the Wednesday, March 1, 2023 Board of Commissioners meeting live at YouTube.com/TownofNagsHead beginning at 9 am. A recording will also be available at that link.
