NC H150

Prohibits counties and municipalities from applying zoning ordinances related to building design elements to one- and two-family dwellings except in limited circumstances including historic districts, historic landmarks, safety code compliance, manufactured housing, and National Flood Insurance Program requirements.

Defines "building design elements" to include exterior color, cladding materials, roof styles, windows, doors, room types, and interior layout, but excludes height, bulk, orientation, location, buffering, screening, and permitted land use regulations.

Requires voluntary consent from all affected property owners before design regulations can be applied unless the property is in a historic district or designated historic landmark, or regulations relate to safety codes or flood insurance requirements.

Prohibits indirect application of design regulations through zoning amendment reviews for comprehensive plan consistency unless property owners voluntarily consent.

Does not affect the validity of private covenants or contractual agreements among property owners regarding building design elements.
