Section 1.  Section 153-266.1 of the General Statutes of North Carolina, as the same appears in the 1964 Replacement Volume 3C, is hereby amended by adding the following new paragraph at the end thereof:

"Where the board of commissioners has determined pursuant to Section 153-266.13 that it is not necessary to zone the entire county in order to serve the public interest and has designated one or more portions of the county as a zoning area or areas, and where zoning regulations have been adopted for such area or areas, the board may in its discretion elect to adopt and enforce subdivision regulations applying only to such area or areas. Any such area or areas may be regulated in the same manner as if the entire county was regulated, and the remainder of the county need not be regulated."

Sec. 2.  Should any Section, clause, or provision of this Act be declared by the courts to be unconstitutional or invalid for any reason, such decision shall not affect the validity of the Act as a whole nor any part thereof other than the part so declared to be unconstitutional or invalid.

Sec. 3.  All laws and clauses of laws in conflict herewith are hereby repealed to the extent of such conflict.

Sec. 4.  This Act shall become effective upon its ratification.

In the General Assembly read three times and ratified, this the 7th day of April, 1965.
