Pro Tip for Cumberland County
Wind speed steps up across the county — the NC code sets 130 mph east of I-95 and 120 mph west — so confirm which side of the interstate your site is on and spec the building's engineering to match. Fayetteville, Hope Mills and Spring Lake permit separately from the county.
