From Carolina Journal Radio Program No. 752: The Carolina Beach Town Council recently earned kudos from the John Locke Foundation’s city and county policy analyst. Julie Tisdale says she was happy to see local leaders debating whether the town places too many restrictions on construction and use of accessory buildings. Tisdale says Carolina Beach already has taken positive steps to loosen rules regarding the height and size of those structures. She’s waiting to see how the town will address rules limiting use of accessory buildings for apartments or rental units.
