The Wrightsville Beach smoking ban, Room Occupancy Tax formula and Coastal Storm Damage Reduction project funding were among the topics discussed at a meeting leaders from Wrightsville, Carolina and Kure beaches held with North Carolina Representative Ted Davis Jr., R-New Hanover.
Held on Friday morning, March 22, at Shell Island Resort, an update on the Wrightsville Beach smoking ban was the first item on the meeting agenda.
In his efforts to secure a local act from the North Carolina General Assembly that would clarify Wrightsville Beach’s enforceable jurisdiction on the beach strand for the ban, Davis said the North Carolina State Constitution prevents any local bills dealing with health, sanitation or nuisances. The smoking ban would qualify under all three.
Since learning this, Davis said he began to pursue a statewide bill that would allow local municipalities to enforce these ordinances Article source: http://www.newsfeedmaker.com/article/143567017/7b2910f9
