Section 4.3   Vested Rights and Permit Choice
Purpose
   NCGS § 160D-108 provides mechanisms by way of statutory vested rights for a project to move forward as originally approved. Statutory vested rights run with the land and are not affected by changes in ownership. These rights are subject to development progressing in accordance with all applicable terms and conditions of approval.
   Permit choice is provided as an option for establishing the development standard to be used when regulations are in the process of changing during application review.
