(1)       The total rezoning of all property within the boundaries of a county or a zoning area as defined in G.S. 153A-342 unless rezoning involves zoning of parcels of land to less intense or more restrictive uses.  If rezoning involves zoning of parcels of land to less intense or more restrictive uses, notification to owners of these parcels shall be made by mail in accordance with subsection (a) of this section;

(2)       The zoning is an initial zoning of the entire zoning jurisdiction area;

(3)       The zoning reclassification action directly affects more than 50 properties, owned by a total of at least 50 different property owners;

In any case where this subsection eliminates the notice required by subsection (a) of this section, a county shall publish once a week for four successive calendar weeks in a newspaper having general circulation in the area maps showing the boundaries of the area affected by the proposed ordinance or amendment.  The map shall not be less than one-half of a newspaper page in size.  The notice shall only be effective for property owners who reside in the area of general circulation of the newspaper which publishes the notice.  Property owners who reside outside of the county's jurisdiction or outside of the newspaper circulation area, according to the address listed on the most recent property tax listing for the affected property, shall be notified by mail pursuant to this section.  In any case where this subsection eliminates the notice required by subsection (a) of this section, a county need not publish once a week for four successive weeks the area maps required in this subsection if the procedures adopted pursuant to subsection (a) of this section provide for the first class mail notice required in subsection (a) of this section in all cases, including those for which first class mail is not required under this subsection. The person or persons mailing the notices shall certify to the board of commissioners that fact, and the certificates shall be deemed conclusive in the absence of fraud.
