Our Mission
 

The mission of the North Carolina Property Rights Coalition is to provide a unified voice to advocate public policy that protects and preserves private property while exposing the misuse of eminent domain, excessive regulations, and burdensome laws.  

Our Core Beliefs

We believe that private property is one of the cornerstones of our free society and that the use and protection of private property advances the well being of our state.  Private property is one of the foundations upon which our country was built.

• Private property advances economic opportunity.  The use and protection of private property allows individuals and businesses to grow and accumulate wealth and security.

• Excessive government regulations are a threat to private property rights.  Over-burdensome environmental regulations, growth controls, and forced annexation pose serious threats to the rights and interests of property owners. 

• Eminent Domain should be used as a last resort.  Governments should not use Eminent Domain for private use and economic development purposes.
