Frequently asked questions
- How do I get the owner authorization notarized?
- The property owner signs the authorization before a notary, who completes the sworn-to and subscribed-before-me jurat. Check the town's original-document submission rules before sending the application.
- Do I need a notary for this zoning amendment application?
- The form calls for the owner's signature to be notarized when the person requesting town action is not the property owner or someone under contract to purchase. Follow the authorization section's instructions for your situation.
- Can I use online notarization for this form?
- North Carolina's remote electronic notarization program has not launched. Emergency video notarization is a separate process requiring both signer and notary to be inside North Carolina. Confirm with the city or town if unsure whether it will accept your notarized document.
- Can I email or fax the completed application?
- No. The form says applications are not accepted by fax or email and that faxed, scanned, or copied images of the original document will not be accepted. It directs applicants to mail or hand-deliver the submission.
