North Carolina Senate bill in Session 2025.
Status: in_committee. Latest action: March 25, 2025.
Disaster Relief Eviction Moratorium Act.
Amends GS 166A-19.20 by adding two new subsections. Subsection (c3) permits the Governor to institute a residential eviction moratorium in the emergency area by executive order (EO) when the Governor or General Assembly declares a state of emergency. Requires the Governor to find that the disaster has caused either (1) widespread displacement, (2) job loss, or (3) other economic hardships that would lead to significant increase in homelessness without the moratorium to issue this EO. Restricts the initial EO to a moratorium length less than or equal to 90 calendar days with extensions permitted in increments of 30 calendar days. Limits the moratorium’s length to 180 total calendar days.
