Currituck County/Eminent Domain.
This bill allows Currituck County to use its power of eminent domain specifically for beach erosion control and flood or hurricane protection projects. It amends state laws to include Currituck County alongside other coastal areas that are currently authorized to take private property for these coastal safety purposes. Additionally, the bill changes how property ownership is transferred in these specific coastal counties, allowing the county to gain immediate title to the land once a legal complaint is filed and a deposit is made. The changes apply only to Currituck County and do not affect other regions outside the designated coastal list.
