From YouTube: City of Charlotte Zoning Meeting - April 20, 2020
Description
You're watching the Promotion Ceremony for the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, April 17, 2020. Thanks for joining us. Let's wish all these officers the best in the next stages of their careers.
A
C
One
today
is
April
the
20th
and
we
are
beginning
our
the
City
Council
Charlotte
City
Council
zoning
meeting
for
this
month.
So
I'd
like
to
call
this
meeting
to
order.
Tonight's
loaning
meeting
is
being
held
as
a
virtual
meeting.
In
accordance
with
the
electronic
meeting
statute,
the
requirements
have
noticed
access
and
minutes
are
being
met
through
the
through
electronic
means.
The
public,
all
of
you
and
the
media
are
able
to
view
this
meeting
on
our
government
channel
the
city's
Facebook
page
on
the
city's
YouTube
site,
so
I
want
to
say
to
everyone.
C
I
hope
that
everyone
had
a
good
weekend,
we're
still
in
the
midst
of
coronavirus
and
the
stay
at
home.
We
flattened
them
the
curve,
efforts
and
I
again
want
to
say
thank
you
to
everyone
that
is
continuing
to
serve
this
community
to
keep
us
all
well,
and
we
really
greatly
appreciate
the
efforts
that
you're
making
and
the
sacrifices
we're
very
much
aware
of
so
I'm
going
to
begin
with
introductions.
We're
going
to
interesting
members
introduce
themselves
in
the
order
of
that's
printed
in
our
document.
I
am
bylaws
and
I
serve
as
mayor
good.
C
Right
I
didn't
hear
mr.
Graham
very
well,
but
I
think
he
did
introduce
himself
and
I'd
also
like
for
you
to
know
that
I'm
Sam
Spencer
Spencer,
who
is
our
Planning
Commission
zoning
committee,
chair?
It's
also
with
us
virtually
if
there
are
questions
about
the
decisions
that
we
have
or
if
the
zoning
committee
who's
also
watching
this
by
either
on
the
government
Channel
or
one
of
the
other
options.
C
C
You
very
much
so
we
begin
our
meeting
with
an
invocation
followed
by
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance,
and
the
invocation
is
done
by
council
member
and
it's
intended
to
help
the
City
Council
with
our
meetings,
our
deliberations
and
we
celebrate
our
diversity
in
this
community,
including
our
religious
and
faith.
You
diversity
and
if
you
so
choose
we're
to
participate
virtually
I'm
tonight,
council,
member
Mitchell
will
give
our
invocation
and
the
pledge
of
leech
of
Allegiance
will
be
recited
by
one
council
member
and
that
will
be
council
member
Graham
council
member
Mitchell.
Thank.
F
You
Mary
council.
If
we
made
our
heads
dear
Lord,
you
continue
to
watch
over
I
city
employees
who
are
providing
public
service
during
these
difficult
times.
Lord
acts
for
your
presence
to
be
known
at
this
City
Council
meeting
to
guide
this
council
with
your
wisdom
and
a
caring
spirit,
Lord
Act.
You
continue
to
bless
the
mayor,
the
City
Council
I
staff
and
the
citizens
of
this
great
city
of
show,
and
this
I
pray,
amen,
amen.
C
N
C
And
because
this
Egypt
is
a
virtual
meeting,
we
ask
citizens
to
that
wish
to
come
in
on
a
number
of
the
hearings
or
that
we
would
be
doing
later
this
evening
after
our
decisions
section,
we
receive
those
written
comments
and
if
you
sent
your
comments
in
before
9
a.m.
this
morning,
we'll
be
able
to
call
on
you
with
a
virtual
with
by
having
those
will
be
able
to
actually
enter
those
comments
into
the
official
record
of
the
meeting.
If
you
got
your
comments
in
after
9
a.m.
C
they
will
be
distributed
to
the
council,
in
fact,
all
comments
that
were
sent
in
will
be
distributed
to
the
council
following
this
meeting.
So
on
the
zoning
process,
the
process
begins
when
people
submit
or
peep
anyone's
can
submit
an
application
to
the
planning
staff
for
review.
We
have
two
types
of
cases
on
our
agenda
tonight.
We
have
one
decision
and
several
hearings,
so
the
decisions
we
have
already
held
a
public
hearing
and
will
no
longer
have
any
further
public
comment.
C
We'll
do
have
a
council
discussion
and
then
a
vote
for
hearings,
because
we
are
having
this
virtual
meeting.
The
rules
will
apply
that
you
have
submitted
those
and
we
will
also
have
some
people
that
would
appear
as
a
part
of
the
meeting
as
well
and
I
will
follow
that
the
order
of
hearing
from
people
on
each
peer
public
each
rezoning
petition
later
on
in
the
meeting
we
do
have
some
rules
around
time.
For
the
hearings,
those
the
staff
will
present
the
information
on
petitions.
C
The
petitioner
and
those
people
in
favor
have
three
minutes
to
present
their
case
to
all
of
us
and
then,
if
their
opponents
to
sign
up
to
speak,
the
petitioner
gets
ten
minutes.
The
opponent
gets
ten
minutes
and
the
petitioner
gets
a
two
minute
rebuttal.
If
they're
not
opposition's,
the
petitioner
gets
just
three
minutes
or
enough
of
three
minutes.
So
it's
guess
and
if
no
one
is
opposed
to
sign
up
to
speak,
the
staff
just
provides
a
short
presentation
and
then
we
have
our
public
hearings
opened
and
closed
by
the
council.
C
C
We
have
several
items
that
were
printed
on
our
formal
agenda
that
have
been
deferred
I'm,
going
to
read
each
of
those
petitions
that
has
a
deferral
date
and
then
at
one
point
and
then
after
I
read
them
all
I
would
ask
the
council
for
emotion
and
a
vote
on
I'm
the
deferral.
This
vote
will
be
by
acclamation.
So
the
petitions
that
have
been
requested
for
a
deferral-
our

H
C

2019
152
by
spec,
from
properties
for
approximately
27
acres
located
off
Carolyn
Lane
and
Joe
Whitner
Road.
It
is
in
district
4.
The
proposed
zoning
is
urban
residential
conditional.
The
zoning
committee
and
the
staff
recommend
approval
of
that.
That
petition
do
I,
have
a
motion
to
adopt
the
zoning
committee
statement
of
consistency
as
it
is
in
our
agenda
or
on
our
screen
tonight,
and
approve
the
petitioner
and
I'd
like
to
recognize
council

Johnson
motion
to
approve
thank.
M
H
H
H
B
B
A
C
Her
as
okay,
we
have
the
votes
to
pass
it
so
that
decision,
as
is
approved
so
now
we'll
go
to
our
hearing
sections,
and
this
is
our
first
zoning
meeting
with
a
virtual
being
virtual,
so
bear
with
us
if
we
are
not
completely
where
we
need
to
be
we're
doing
our
very
best,
we've,
even
with
rehearsals
and
practices
we're
doing
our
very
best.
The
first
petition,
where
the
first
hearing
is
petitioned,
2020,
I,
10,
2020
0:36
by
the
charlotte
planning,
design
and
development
department
for
approximately
a
half
acre
and
district
1.
C
B
Thank
You
mayor,
we
do
have
our
first
petitions
evening
is
2020
zero.
Three
six,
and
this
is
a
petition
by
the
Planning
Department
itself.
We
do
have
some
unknown
property
in
this
area
here,
along
pecan
Avenue,
just
off
of
Independence
Boulevard.
This
was
a
holdover
from
cement,
cbot
right-of-way,
as
we've
had
some
interest
in
development
of
the
larger
property
that
you
can
see.
These
are
part
of
those
parcels,
but
that
area
in
red
here
does
not
have
any
Zoning
assigned
to
it.
B
So
again,
all
the
zoning
for
the
property
will
be
consistent
and
they
won't
have
any
outstanding
issue
with
the
potential
development
of
the
property
in
that
UNH's
owned
area.
It
is
consistent
with
the
plaza
central
pet
scape
plan
does
recommend
a
mix
of
uses.
B2
does
support
that
and
then
our
recommendation
is
for
approval
of
this
petition.
As
we
said,
it
is
consistent
with
the
plan
and
it's
an
item
that
will
bring
that
zoning
in
line
with
the
rest
of
the
property
I'll
be
happy
to
take
any
questions.
All.
H
H
C
M
G
C
C
It's
for
petition,
2019
176
by
the
Charlotte
Douglas
International
Airport
for
approximately
78
acres
on
the
east
side
of
Steel
Creek
Road,
it's
in
district
3,
the
car
zoning
is
single-family
residential
with
the
airport
noise
overlay.
The
proposed
zoning
is
general
industrial
with
the
airport.
Noise
overlay
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
petition
and
we
have
several
speakers
I'm
here
as
following
the
staff
presentation.
C
B
Thank
you,
a
petition
2019
one,
seven,
six,
it's
just
about
seventy
eight
and
a
half
acre.
Seventy
eight
point:
six,
eight
acres
on
the
east
side
of
Steel,
Creek,
Road,
south
of
Byram
Drive
and
West
Boulevard.
You
see
the
entirety
of
the
property
here.
That's
under
this
petition
just
to
give
you
some
site
context,
there's
the
just
general
area,
485
and
then
still
Creek,
Road
and
the
property
is
this
bulk
of
land
over
in
this
area?
B
The
existing
zoning
is,
we,
it
state
is
r3,
it
does
have
an
airport
and
always
overlay
on
top
of
that
property.
They
are
requesting
just
a
condition
with
conventional
excuse
me
I
zoning
that
airport
noise
overlay
would
carry
forward
with
that
property
as
well
through
this
rezoning,
the
adoptive
future
land
use
does
have
some
institutional
land
use
recommendations
as
well
as
industrial.
You
can
see.
The
blue
area
is
recommended
for
that
institutional.
B
That
is
likely
consistent
with
the
church
property
that
had
been
out
there
for
a
long
time,
and
then
you've
got
the
industrial
recommendation
here
in
that
purple
color.
So
we
do
have
some
inconsistency
with
the
general
adopted
Land
Use
Plan,
but
some
consistency
with
a
mojo
or
a
part
of
the
property
as
well.
It
is
located
within
the
shopton
Road
industrial
activity
center
for
that
centers
corridors
and
wedges
growth
framework.
So
we
do
have
consistency
with
that
plan
for
that
centers
corridors
and
wedges
policy.
So
this
is
a
conventional
petition.
B
Staff
does
recommend
approval,
as
we
said,
it's
condition
for
a
portion
of
the
plan
for
the
west
side
strategic
plan
recommendation.
It's
inconsistent
with
that
institutional
land
use.
We
do
feel
that
the
industrial
land
use
while
inconsistent
is
consistent
with
the
general
pattern
of
development
in
that
area,
south
of
the
airport.
That's
an
industrial
activity
center.
It's
in
that
noise
overlay,
which
lends
more
towards
compatibility
with
industrial
uses
over
residential
uses.
The
steel,
creek
press
petition,
Presbyterian,
church
sanctuary
building
and
cemetery
are
designated
as
local
historic
property
by
the
Charlotte
Mecklenburg
County
Historic
Landmarks
Commission.
B
C
Right
so
one
thing
that
we
do
not
have
opposition
to
this
petition,
so
the
petitioner
will
have
three
minutes,
but
I
understand
we're
having
technical
issues
and
so
we're
going
to
take
a
break
until
the
technical
issues
are
resolved.
So
before
continuing
the
meeting,
so
we're
going
to
recess
the
meeting
to
resolve
the
technical
issues
and
we'll
be
back
as
soon
as
that's
as
soon
as
we've
made
the
corrections.
Thank
you.
B
P
That
mayor
council
staff,
thank
you
for
your
time
this
evening
to
hear
about
Bob
rezoning
petition
to
0
1
9
1,
7
6,
as
staff
shared,
it's
about
78,
acre
parcel
that
the
Aviation
Department
has
acquired
over
the
past
30
years.
It
is
property
that
was
home
to
Gill,
Creek,
Presbyterian
Church
for
many
many
decades,
hundreds
of
years
over
what
once
of
years.
In
fact,
we
acquired
the
last
section
of
it
for
the
request
of
the
congregation
on
may
of
2019.
P
The
super
II
Presbyterian
session
still
retains
ownership
of
the
historic
Specht
cemetery,
which
is
active
and
adjacent
to
the
sanctuary.
So
we
do
not
own
that
and
are
not
requesting
for
that
to
be
rezone.
It
is
just
the
approximate
seventy
eight
acres
made
up
of
six
parcels
that
are
being
requested
to
be
rezone
from
residential
to
industrial.
Thank
you
for
your
time
this
evening.
I
welcome
any
questions.
Thank.
C
C

Q
C
E
C
C
C
C
C
And
ISIL,
all
in
favor
of
closing
the
public
hearing,
please
say
aye
any
opposed.
Thank
you
all
right.
The
second
petition
that
the
second
hearing
that
we're
going
to
I'm
have
is
agenda
item
number
12,
rezoning,
petition,
2019
176
by
Anthony
Kuhn
for
approximately
two
and
a
half
acres
located
at
three
thousand
or
frying
Street.
It's
in
district
1.
The
current
zoning
is
I
industrial
and
the
requested
zoning
is
transit,
oriented
development,
urban
center.
O
C
B
Thank
you
all
right.
Thank
you.
We
have
2019
171,
it's
two
and
a
half
acres
located
at
3,000,
orth,
Tryon
Street.
Just
around
that
area.
These
36th
Street
North
Tryon.
We've
got
our
light
rail
stuff
just
down
here
about
less
than
about
2,600
feet
from
this
petition.
So
the
petition
itself
is
looking
to
go
from
an
industrial,
a
to
zoning
to
a
transitoria
development,
urban
center
zoning
district.
So
Tod
you
see,
you
see,
we
have
some
Tod.
You
see
right
here
around
a
36th,
Street
Station
as
well.
B
Some
Tod
in
this
area,
as
well
so
again
we're
within
very
close
proximity
to
36th
Street
Station,
so
Tod
district
is
being
requested.
The
adopted
future
land
use
from
the
North
Toronto
area
plan
does
recommend
mix
of
office
and
retail
for
the
site,
so
the
petition
would
provide
those
uses,
even
though
it's
technically
inconsistent,
it
does
provide
office
and
retail
uses
through
that
Tod
zoning
district.
We
are
recommending
approval.
B
It
is
like
I
said,
inconsistent,
but
given
the
proximity
that
twenty-six
hundred
and
forty
feet
from
36th
Street
Station,
that
Tod
ordinance
would
be
applicable
here,
most
the
surrounding
land
uses
are
zoned
at
a
higher
intensity,
which
would
help
make
this
zoning
district
compatible
with
the
surrounding
zoning
districts
and
again
will
likely
be
consistent
with
what
we
see
development
wise
around
that
general
area.
So
we
do
recommend
approval.
It
will
change
the
future
land
use
in
the
area
to
a
transit,
oriented
development
for
the
site.
B
H
C
C
G
A
raised
him
but
I
was
seconded
I,
do
think
it's
the
appropriate
use.
We
can
I
could
take
the
answer
off
block
and
staff,
but
the
intent
of
Tod
is
to
be
contiguous,
while
this
seems
appropriate.
How
do
we
kind
of
think
about
getting
to
I
guess
promoting
the
type
of
rezoning
that
we
want
to
get
it
to
that
continuous
fashion?
Because
that's
how
she
of
you
supposed
about
that.
C
All
right,
so
mr.
Winston
has
asked
how
do
we
make
this
Tod
the
zoning
contiguous
when
there
are
various
types
of
zoning
as
we
join,
our
arts
partials
are
adjoining
and
he
said
that
he
would
take
that
question
in
the
follow-up
report
all
right
and
he
was
second
the
motion
for
closing.
So
all
in
favor
of
closing
the
public
hearing,
please
say
aye.
M
C
Opposed
all
right,
the
next
item
on
our
agenda
is
agenda
item
13,
its
petition,
2019
185
by
freedom,
communities
for
approximately
1.7
acres
located
on
the
south
side
of
Tuckasegee
Road,
it's
in
district
3.
The
current
zoning
is
single-family
residential
and
the
proposed
zoning
is
urban.
Residential
commercial
conditional
district
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
upon
resolution
of
outstanding
issues
related
to
site
and
building
design
and
land
use.
We
will
we
have
a
lead
speaker
by
following
the
staff
presentation.
We
will
have
a
speaker
mark
Talbot
representing
the
petitioner.
B
Okay,
2019
185,
1.67
acres.
It
is
located
on
Tuckasegee
Road
if
they
Tuckasegee
and
Rogers
Street.
We
do
have
a
request
from
r5
residential
to
a
URC
conditional
district,
mainly
that
conditional
strict
is
to
facilitate
this
property
that
will
continue
to
be
used
as
a
church
in.
It
will
actually
then
accommodate
more
of
a
day
care
on
the
property,
so
that
the
conditional
plan
does
limit
all
of
the
uses
on
the
property
just
to
a
religious
institution
and
a
childcare
center.
B
B
Those
will
be
improved
to
better
meet
code
standards
for
driveway
entrances
will
also
get
streetscape
improvements
on
both
Road
frontages
for
an
8
foot,
planting
strip
and
six-foot
sidewalk,
both
on
like
I,
said
Tuckasegee
and
Rogers,
and
that
will
also
use
the
existing
play
areas
that
they
have
in
place
now
for
that
continuing
with
childcare
use.
So
again
the
r5
do
you
are
so
you're,
mainly
just
to
limit
those
uses
to
religious
institution
and
child
care
center.
Now
staff
does
recommend
approval.
B
It
is
inconsistent
with
that
central
district
plan,
which
recommends
single-family
uses
up
to
five
dwelling
units
breaker.
However,
the
proposed
rezoning
does
just
continue
to
facilitate
the
existing
use
of
the
property
as
a
church
with
that
daycare
use
being
part
of
it
now
and
also
most
of
our
district
plans
and
plans
in
general
do
not
specify
when
we
go
into
where
institutional
uses
typically
would
fall.
B
So,
even
though
it's
inconsistent
with
residential
would
continue
the
general
use
of
the
site
and
still
be
compatible,
we
feel
with
the
rest
of
the
properties
in
the
area
as
it
has
been
for
the
years
that's
been
operating,
so
we
do
recommend
approval,
we'll
be
happy
to
take
questions
after
mr.
Talbots
presentation.
C
K
You
this
is
a
project,
that's
being
done,
obviously
about
freedom,
communities,
we're
a
non-profit
working
in
the
Freedom
Drive
corridor.
I
won't
go
into
all
the
details
of
all
we
do,
but
one
of
the
things
we
uncovered
was
a
huge
need
for
quality
preschool
in
the
area,
preparing
children
and
their
families
for
entering
the
school
system
and
for
entering
that.
K
Well,
they
identified
a
great
user
or
a
great
provider,
a
bright
future
Learning
Academy
and
they
will
be
moving
into
what's
the
Sunday
School
building
on
this
property
and
converting
that
to
a
commercial
preschool,
there
are
two
buildings:
there's
a
sanctuary
building
but
they'll
be
maintained
as
a
church
facility,
and
then
we
will
convert
the
old
Sunday
school
building
into
a
preschool
to
serve
the
community.
We're
excited
as
well
to
be
able
to
preserve
a
1950s
Church
in
the
community
instead
of
being
developed.
K
K
There's
the
that
one's
a
little
bit
weird,
because
the
pictures
in
the
site
planner
facing
different
direction,
so
something
happened
there,
but
why
don't
you
go
into
the
next
one?
This
is
just
an
example.
This
is
the
church
they'll
be
moving
in
the
sanctuary,
the
two
pastors
that
served
there
already
they
already
meet
over
on
Freedom
driving
the
movement
school
going
to
the
next
slide.
This
is
bright
future
Learning
Academy
that
will
be
running
the
preschool
in
the
sink
in
the
sunday
school
building
they
operate
now
over
near
Ashley,
Park,
School
and
a
wonderful
facility.
K
There
go
ahead
and
switch
well.
There's
your
cycle
and
what
a
couple
of
the
outstanding
issues
that
were
mentioned,
we're
just
one
was
a
landscape
buffer
in
the
side
yard
of
a
playground
area.
We
are
planning
I've,
already
incorporated
a
Lansky,
the
landscaping
in
that,
so
that
the
the
actual
playground
area
will
not
come
too
close
to
the
property
line,
and
the
second
was
that
we
have
removed
the
office
and
business
uses
out
of
the
permitted
uses.
Good
switch
slot.
C
C
C
Mr.
Weston
all
right
still
go
of
my
hand
last
time:
okay,
so
I'm
any
other
council
questions.
If
Matt
can
I
get
someone
to
do
a
motion
to
close
the
public
hearing,
dr.
Weaver
motion
and
a
second
miss
Watlington
mr.
Driggs,
all
in
favor,
please
say:
aye:
okay,
we'll
love
carries.
The
next
petition.
Is
item
number
fourteen
petition,
2019
174.
C
This
is
1.1
acres
located
on
the
south
side
of
Colts
Gates
Road,
it's
in
district
6,
the
current
zoning
is
office
and
the
request
is
owning
its
mixed-use
development.
Optional
staffer
recommends
approval
of
this
petition
upon
resolution,
about
standing
issues
related
to
site
and
building
design
transportation
and
requested
technical
provisions.
We
have
in
this
petition.
We
have
the
staff
presentation
and
mr.
Brian
Simpson
will
represent
the
petitioner
and
you
will
have
Mr
sense.
We'll
have
three
minutes.
Mr.
poutine,
would
you
start
with
the
staff
presentation?
Yes,.
B
B
Changes
from
oh
six
conditional,
which
is
an
office
district
to
a
meadow
which
is
mixed-use
development
district.
They
do
have
some
optional
provisions
within
that
conditional
plants.
That's
why
we
have
the
optional
listed
on
there.
The
adopted
future
land-use,
which
is
from
the
South
parks
malaria
plan,
was
for
single-family
multifamily
office
for
the
site.
However,
the
vision
also
articulated
that
plan
does
call
for
this
area
to
have
a
transition
from
more
suburban
shopping
and
business
environment
to
more
of
a
town
center,
with
a
balance
of
a
mixture
of
land
uses.
B
This
petition
does
provide
two
different
land
use
options
that
they've
got
within
the
proposal.
We've
got
up
to
92
92.
Excuse
me:
90,
2500
square
feet
of
office
and
3,500
square
feet
of
retail,
so
we
do
have
like
I
said
two
different
use.
Proposals
within
this
site.
Maximum
building
height
would
be
90
feet.
Six
storeys
the
parking
structure
is
to
be
5
storeys,
which
would
also
be
located
on
the
site
within
this
general
area
off
to
the
side
here,
design,
standards
and
architectural
standards
for
the
building,
particularly
for
those
ground-floor
Street
facing
facades.
B
So
we've
got
those
incorporated
in
to
make
sure
that
that
Street
facing
facades,
you
know,
articulate
the
vision
for
the
plan
in
the
area.
They
have
a
single
driveway
of
cold
skate
with
a
stub
for
future
connection
to
existing
properties.
To
the
back
here
also,
some
streetscape
improvements
for
sidewalk
complaining
strips
and
some
open
space,
that's
being
provided.
The
optional
provision
is
for
off-site
parking
which
would
facilitate
some
of
that
phase
construction.
So
that's
something
that
the
staff
understands
as
they
build
the
site.
They're
gonna
have
to
transition
some
parking
to
some
other
areas.
B
While
they
build
that
parking
structure,
staff
does
recommend
approval
this
petition.
There
are
some
outstanding
issues
you
need
to
work
through
related
to
site,
building
design
from
transportation
items
and
some
minor
technical
revisions.
As
we
said,
it
is
inconsistent
with
the
South
Park
small
area
plan.
We
do
get
the
retail
we
get
the
office
uses
for
the
site,
but
the
single-family
multi-family
uses
aren't
consistent.
But
again
we
have
a
retail
office
mix
for
this
one.
B
We
do
feel
that
that
does
facilitate
some
of
the
vision
of
the
plan
and
also
the
centers
corridors
and
wedges
framework.
So
we
do
recommend
approval.
It
will
revise
the
adopted
future
land
use
from
that
single-family
multi-family
office
to
just
office
retail
for
the
cypher.
Again,
we
recommend
approval
we'll
be
happy
to
take
questions
after
the
presentation
by
the
petitioner.
All.
S
It's
been
loaded,
and
there
are
some
renderings
and
I'll
go
ahead
and
start
on.
Why
are
you
pulling
that
up,
but
we
feel
like
it's
it's
consistent
with
what's
going
on
in
the
South
Park
area,
if
there's
a
two-story
office
building
that
is
very
suburban
with
a
big
surface
parking
lot,
we'd
like
to
get
a
density
to
this
area,
the
very
little
retail,
but
we
do
have
office
and
we
feel
like
that
would
be
important
to
supplement.
There's
a
bit
of
retail
in
the
in
the
area.
We've
worked
with
the
staff.
S
We've
worked
with
the
South
Park
area
in
neighborhoods
on
a
couple
of
occasions
and
are
currently
working
with
them
over
a
last
few
issues.
They
wanted
to
see
some
additional
renderings.
Both
are
engines
up,
as
you
can
see
it's
in
keeping
with
South
Park
architecture,
six
story
office,
building
that
connects
over
to
the
parking
structure.
The
parking
structure
is
compatible
with
the
office
building
retail
on
the
first
floor
of
both,
and
we
feel
like
the
scale,
is
it's
very
appropriate
for
what
is
happening
in
this
area.
S
L
L
I,
don't
think,
there's
anything
that
is
drastically
on
fire
here,
but
there
are
six
loose
ends
in
their
minds
and
I
believe
that
they've
always
been
a
group
that
has
been
very,
very
fair
to
work
with
I
think
they
just
would
like
a
little
more
engagement,
particularly
around
those
six
which
I'll
be
looking
at
very
closely
in
a
month
from
now,
and
this
comes
to
decision
time.
So
I
would
just
really
appreciate
if
you
could
spend
a
little
more
time
with
them
and
get
to
the
bottom
of
the
questions
and
outstanding
asset.
They
have.
S
L
C
F
C
It
is
in
district
1.
The
current
zoning
is
residential
five
units
per
acre.
The
proposed
zoning
is
urban.
Residential
conditional
staff
does
not
recommend
approval
of
this
petition,
and
so
in
this
case,
when
the
staff
has
their
completion,
the
petitioner
would
have
ten
minutes
to
present
their
side
of
the
requests,
and
we
have
two
speakers
against
so
be
patient
with
us
on
the
technology
here.
This
is
going
to
take
us
through
every
step
that
we
would
ordinarily
have
when
we
have
this
type
of
petition.
So
we're
going
to
start
with
the
staff
presentation.
B
Thank
you.
Madam
mayor.
We've
got
just
over
a
half
acre
on
Park
wood
and
Pegram
Street,
let's
just
at
that
intersection.
Currently
it
is
zoned
r5
we
are
looking
at
a.
You
are
three
CD
plan,
which
is
an
urban
residential
conditional
plan
that
is
being
requested.
The
Belmont
area
revitalization
plan,
which
is
from
2003,
does
recommend
residential
uses
up
to
22
dwelling
units
per
acre
for
the
site,
so
would
support
a
density.
It
looks
set
up
to
22
dua
with
multifamily.
B
The
current
request
that
we're
looking
at
this
evening
under
this
petition
is
up
to
17
dwelling
units
on
the
property.
It's
33
and
a
half
dwelling
units
per
acre,
so
it
does
exceed
that
recommendation
in
the
area
plan.
It
does
include
at
least
three
affordable
units
within
the
project.
Maximum
building
height
is
42
feet,
which
is
generally
consistent
with
a
single-family
residential
home
commit
star
contextual
standards.
B
They
do
have
some
streetscape
improvements
as
well
for
eight-foot
planting
strip
6
with
sidewalk
along
both
street
frontages,
we're
looking
at
a
replacement
of
the
cats
waiting
pad
and
bench
with
more
of
an
ad,
a
accessible
pad
that
to
be
put
out
there
and
it
does
provide
cut
off
type
lighting,
excluding
that
decorative
accent
lighting,
so
just
something
to
think
about
in
terms
of
how
lighting
will
impact
some
of
those
residential
properties.
As
we
had
mentioned
earlier,
staff
does
not
recommend
approval
this
petition
in
its
current
form.
B
B
That's
also
coming
in
on
some
properties
that
are
adjacent
to
this,
which
you
can
see
are
outlined
in
red.
We've
been
asking
consistently
for
this
petition
to
work
together
to
try
and
provide
some
cross
connectivity
to
at
least
have
these
properties
interact.
Essentially,
what
we're
looking
at
between
both
petitions
is
a
complete
redevelopment
of
the
street
frontage
along
Park
would
have
all
the
way
to
Pegram
street
right
now
we're
living
at
single-family
homes,
the
petition
adjacent
single-family
detached
townhomes.
This
petition
that
we're
looking
at
this
evening
is
just
more
of
a
traditional
multi-family
building.
B
So
again,
we've
tried
to
get
those
properties
to
our
petitions
to
work
a
little
bit
more
together
to
at
least
provide
some
of
that
cross
connection
it
to
make
those
interact
a
little
bit
better
and
really
make
that
project
and
that
infill
development
along
Park
would
be
a
little
bit
more
consistent
and
compatible
with
one
another
so,
rather
than
treat
them
as
two
separate
we're
trying
to
treat
them
as
one
project
if
possible.
So
that's
one
of
the
reasons
main
reasons
why
we
don't
support
it.
B
Currently,
as
it
stands,
we'd
like
to
see
some
changes
made
to
the
petition
as
it
moves
forward
and
and
we'll
continue
to
work
with
the
petitioner,
but
we'll
be
happy
to
take
some
questions
following
both
presentations
by
the
petitioners
team
and
then,
of
course,
the
public.
But
as
it
stands
right
now,
staff
does
not
recommend
approval
in
its
current
form.
All.
C
Right
mister
I
want
to
just
confirm
mr.
Jones
is
going
to
speak
for
the
petitioner
you'd
have
ten
minutes.
We
have
several
other
speakers
as
well
signed
up
to
speak
in
favor,
but
I
think
that
the
staff
called
and
said
would
one
person
like
to
represent
for
the
ten
minutes.
So
mr.
Jones
is
that
correct.
T
C
T
Well
greetings
honorable
mayor,
Mayor,
Pro
Tem
City
Council
has
staff,
my
name
is
retinal
Jones
I
am
executive
director
for
the
bill,
my
Community
Development
Corporation
or
bill
my
CDC.
We
have
been
in
this
particular
neighborhood
over
30
years.
The
organization
was
created
in
1990
and
I
started
as
the
executive
director
in
2005.
Our
mission
is
to
preserve
the
historic
integrity
of
the
Belmont
community
and
and
create
affordable
homes
because
of
the
original
neighborhood
strategy.
T
Forces
need
back
then
of
community
that
they
faced
a
lot
of
challenges
and
one
of
them
one
of
the
problems,
was
adequate,
safe,
decent,
affordable
housing.
So
today,
we've
built
over
25
units
of
affordable
housing
in
that
community
single-family
we've
worked
on
apartment,
complex
to
run
pop
20
32
unit
apartment
complex
as
well
as
Belmont
Springs.
That's
six
unit
apartment
complex
as
well
and
I'm
missing
again
is
the
affordable
housing.
T
We
are
partners
with
the
community,
we've
been
with
the
communities
from
day
one
and
we
always
accept
their
input,
and
we've
been
working
with
the
current
DOMA
Neighborhood
Association
and
their
land
news
committee
and
comments
that
they've
had
toward
the
project.
I
do
want
to
add
also
that
I
have
a
partner
which
created
Parkway,
Plaza

Mr.
T
Bruce,
why
his
sons,
he
has
been
a
resident
owner
of
property
in
that
area
and
had
grocery
stores
back
in
the
past
for
over
40
years,
and
he
is
really
his
goal-
is
to
keep
to
give
back
to
the
community
as
well
as
been
in
community
involvement.
So,
having
said
that,
we
decided
this
area
has
been
this
life.
These
two
lots
that
were
combined
have
been
vacant
for
over
30
years
and,
as
you
see,
progress
in
that
community,
as
well
as
this
location
in
the
community
does
need
to
actually
start
developing
this
particular
project.
T
T
Problem
also
in
our
effort
to
create
create
mixed
income
unit
units.
In
this
area,
we
decided
to
propose
a
17
unit,
three-story
building
on
the
corner
of
people
in
Park
wood,
which
would
consist
of
six
two
bedroom
units
and
11
one-bedroom
units,
and
we
understand
that
the
rezoning
recognization
was,
for
our
part,
22
multifamily,
but
that
would
only
allow
us
the
7th
of
sorry
11
units
on
the
site.
T
We
thought
it
was
important
to
to
increase
the
density
which
allows
for
more
affordable
units
on
a
particular
site
as
well,
and
the
the
dome
is
about
42
42
feet
was,
and
the
ground-floor
amenities
are
located
on
a
corner
park
with
Pegram
adjacent
to
the
outdoors,
which
we
have
a
green
area
or
creation
of
a
courtyard,
possibly
to
give
that
community
feel
a
lot
of
these
changes
that
we
made
were
in
partnership
or
collaboration.
Economists
from
the
neighborhood
associations,
we've
met
several
times
and
axes
today.
T
We've
actually
responded
back
and
forth
on
some
comments
for
clarity
as
well
so,
and
we
decided
to
take
the
units,
the
a/c
units
and
place
those
on
the
roof
and
face
the
unit's
outward
toward
Park.
Would
give
it
more
of
a
community
feel
as
well
the
balconies?
What
have
you
I
do
stress
the
that
feedback
is
important
from
working
with
the
community,
as
we've
had
quite
a
few,
and
also
we've
met
with
council
Evelyn
Everson
on
several
a
couple
of
cases
as
well.
T
T
We
have
a
Plaza
that
I
mentioned
before,
and
it's
on
the
ground
corner
level
that
has
some
amenity
space
potential
that
we
can
use
to
enhance
the
main
view
of
that
air
right
on
that
corner.
That
particular
point
is
key,
so
we
really
want
to
make
sure
we
create
a
very
good
project
project
that
will
that
will
create
a
neighbor
assessable
and
create
that
neighborhood
feel
in
that
particular
area.
I
know
there
was
the
the
communication
regarding
the
vehicular
connection.
T
The
big
convection
is
something
that
kind
of
came
out
of
nowhere
for
us
as
the
owners,
but
we
looked
at
it
as
that.
We
had
a
couple
of
issues
that
we
had
with
that.
One
was
the
safety
and
security
for
our
potential
future
residents
and
also
we
were
concerned
about
the
traffic
that
would
outside
of
the
two
projects
that
would
come
crazy
between
Allen
and
the
Pegram
of
streets,
and
that
was
kind
of
an
issue
for
us.
T
T
That
is
all
that
I
have
in
terms
of
my
presentation
again.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
make
it
important
that
we
are
open
and
we're
partnering
with
our
community
and
we're
partnering
with
neighbor
Neighborhood
Association
meeting
I'm
sorry
associated
Association
group
to
make
sure
that
we
come
up
with
a
project,
that's
doable
for
those
in
that
community.
Thank.
C
C
U
Okay,
their
City
Council
and
members
of
design,
commitment
behind
on
England
I
live
at
1017
Harrell
Street
in
the
Belmont
maple
I
have
concerns
about
the
rezoning
petition,
2019
156
and
employs
them
to
the
petitioners.
I
do
not
think
they
have
been
met.
Albany
requests,
including
connectivity
to
the
proposed
rezoning
between
2020
0:05
at
Allen,
Street
and
Park
Road
Avenue,
feel
that
the
connectivity
to
the
adjacent
proposed
project
is
important
for
the
neighborhood
and
both
projects.
U
There
is
a
proposed
fence
at
the
south
edge
of
the
curbing
in
the
parking
lot
that
is
planning
to
the
system.
Let's
take
you
from
the
pressure
feel
that
the
fence
is
not
good
for
the
project
or
the
neighborhood
I
think
that
the
residents
of
the
proposed
apartments
would
benefit
from
having
expensive
property
one
rather
than
at
the
Kirk,
for
the
parking
lot
so
that
they
could
more
easily
access.
U
The
green
space
I
would
like
to
see
the
sidewalks
that
are
proposed
to
be
replaced
upon
Parkwood
Avenue
for
both
projects
and
that
seamlessly
project
kiss
assembly
two
parcels,
one
of
which
is
owned
by
the
Belmont
CDC
Belmont
CDC
acquired
the
parcel
from
the
City
of
Charlotte
to
be
used
to
build
affordable
housing.
Our
request
that
the
petitioner
limit
the
use
of
any
of
the
affordable
units
to
be
used
for
short
term
rentals,
such
as
Airbnb.
U
C
Miss
P
lie.
It's
miss,
miss
appeal.
No
longer
is
online,
I,
don't
know
what
happened
in
that
regard.
So
if
she
comes
back,
we
would
have
a
remaining
approximately
eight
minutes
or
eight
minutes
to
I'm
here
from
her.
But
since
she's
miss
appeal.
If
you
want
to
reconnect,
please
do
and
we'll
give
you
your
time
if
you
would
till
then
or
if
you
will
just
go
ahead
and
proceed
and
I
like
to
recognize
mr.
Eggleston.
C
T
C
T
Yes,
regarding
the
first
I
believe
he
meant
about
the
fence,
and
he
mentioned
about
mr.
Martin
off
mention
about
the
the
sidewalk
yeah.
Originally
we
had
a
difference.
I
walk
up
here,
but
the
cost
of
the
new,
the
subject,
reason
to
think
next
door.
I
think
we're
can
we're
working
to
probably
connect
those
two
together.
T
I
do
understand
that
we
don't
want
to
allow
that
so
there's
gonna
be
wording
to
deal
with
anything.
Those
kind
of
short
term
stays,
especially
with
our
portable
units
that
we
have
and
we'll
just
go
prompt
more
likely
for
the
entire
building.
But
that's
something
that
we
have
to
work
out.
But
we
are
open
to
remedy
that
is
wording
or
what
not.
C
U
C
C
H
You,
madam
mayor
mr.
Aiman,
brought
up
the
main
sentiments
I've
heard
from
the
neighborhood
as
far
as
concerns
I
appreciate
mr.
Jones
mr.
Dolan,
for
saying
that
those
are
things
that
they
they
can
and
will
continue
to
work
on,
particularly
the
connectivity
that
sounded
like
it
was
a
big
sticking
point
for
staff
as
well,
and
the
Airbnb
came
up
to
me
from
other
leaders
in
the
neighborhood
and
mr.
Hammond
echoed
that
so
I
would
highly
encourage
mr.
H
Delmas
all
through
with
their
commitment
to
continue
working
with
the
land
use
committee
in
the
Belmont
community,
because
I
can
tell
you
if,
if
you're,
starting
out
with
staff,
not
recommending
approval
and
the
Neighborhood
Association,
who
is
informed
me
that
currently
they
are
neither
supporting
nor
opposing
at
this
time.
If
you
don't
have
either
one
of
those
you're
really
behind
the
eight
ball
and
probably
not
off
to
the
start,
you'd
like
to
be
off
to
so
I
would
encourage
you
to
continue
with
those
might
get.
My
question,
I
guess,
is
for
staff.
H
It
sounded
like
one
of
the
big
hurdles
for
staff.
Was
that
the
parking
lot
connectivity
would
staff
potentially
be
supportive
of
the
project,
with
the
changes
that
mr.
Ammon
and
the
neighborhood
Landy's
committee
have
pointed
out?
If
those
were
to
be
rectified
with
staff,
be
able
to
be
supportive
or
would
they
still
not
recommend
it?
On
the
basis
of
some
of
the
other
things
they
outline
I.
B
Think
those
are
certainly
items
that
we
would
like
to
see
address
that
they
take
things
in
a
much
more
positive
direction.
I
think
once
we
kind
of
get
those
in
place
and
see
what
the
outcomes
are
in
regard
to
that
driveway
connection,
the
the
fencing
I
think
we
also
talked
a
little
bit
in
some
of
our
comments
about
the
the
a/c
units
on
Long,
Parkwood
I.
Think
those
had
been
mentioned
by
mr.
B
Jones
that
they've
been
moved
also
so
I
think
we
certainly
heard
some
positive
things
that
we'll
look
forward
to
working
with
them
on
that.
That
does
move
things
in
a
good
direction
for
us.
So
once
we
see
those
I
think
that,
like
I
said,
puts
things
moving
forward
in
the
right
direction
and
we'll
evaluate
them
and
hopefully
see
those
before
zoning
committee
and
before
this
gets
back
to
the
decision,
for
you
guys
so.
H
Mr.
Jones
I
hope
that
gives
you
and
your
team
the
clarity
you
need
to
move
forward
and
get
this
on
track
to
be
successful,
certainly
appreciate
everything
that
y'all
have
done
and
continue
to
do
in
the
Belle
époque
community,
and
it
sounds
like
not
too
far
off
from
some
agreement
here.
So
hopefully
you
guys
can
continue
to
work
those
items
offline
and
have
this
as
something
that
everybody's
everybody
is
happy
with.
For
now,
absolutely.
B
Have
seen
a
couple
conditional
plans
in
the
past
that
had
put
notes
in
there?
That
said,
rentals
of
the
property
wouldn't
be
for
any
short
of
a
duration
than
six
months.
So
we
have
seen
some
conditional
notes
where
they
address.
You
know
how
long
the
property
could
be
rented
if
it
wasn't
rented,
but
that's
about
the
extent
of
what
we
seem.
You
know
now
enforcement
of
that
that's
another
subject,
but
we
have
had
conditional
plans
that
did
address
it
to
some
degree.
Okay,.
W
C
C
Then
my
other
question
was
that
he
said
in
surface
phases.
There
were
five
more
than
required
for
code,
and
this
is
in
one
of
our
Tod
air
and
I
thought
that
we
were
trying
to
actually
get
parking
down
and,
to
you
know,
have
more
use
of
transit.
So
I
was
surprised.
Is
it
up?
I,
don't
know
if
that's
something?
That's
I,
don't
know
how
that
drives
with
what
we've
invested
in
for
the
rail
line,
but
just
the
question
that
I
have
and
how
we
do.
J
B
B
It's
it's
essentially
what's
bounded
in
red
right
now,
right
next
to
this
one
is
the
adjacent
rezoning,
that's
pending
right
now
and
that's
20
2000
5.
So
it
takes
up
the
rest
of
the
block
between
Parkwood
and
Allen
Street,
and
then
it
comes
down
to
that
red
line
just
below
that
text
box.
That's
right!
Right
there
and.
J
J
B
There's
at
least
a
driveway
or
drive-thru
connection:
that's
between
both
sites,
they've
got
a
Commercial
Drive
that
ends
at
the
you
know,
really
towards
the
adjacent
property
for
them.
We'd
like
to
see
that
driveway
continue
through
and
provide
some
cross
connectivity
through
both
sites
between
Pegram
and
Allen
streets.
So
just
so,
they
functioned
together
as
kind
of
one
site
in
terms
traffic
flow
and
pedestrian
connectivity.
J
B
Again,
as
I
answered
it,
miss
Jacklin
would
certainly
Eggleston.
It
certainly
points
things
in
the
right
direction.
I
think
we'd
have
to
take
a
look
to
make
sure
that
other
issues
have
been
addressed
as
well.
That's
not
the
only
one,
but
that
certainly
is
one
of
the
big
ones
that
we're
looking
for.
So
we
certainly
would
be
positive
if
we
saw
that
and
then
we'll
evaluate
the
other
changes
they
make
and
adjust
our
recommendation
as
we
need
to
based
on
some
of
the
changes
that
they
make,
but
that
certainly
moves
things
in
a
positive
direction.

by
Northwood

for
approximately
450
for
a

located
on
the
north
side
of
Ballentine
Commons

it's
in
district
7,
the
card
zoning
is
Business,

conditional
and
office
conditional
proposed

is

Development.
Optional
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
petition
upon
resolution
of
outstanding
issues
related
to
the
site
and
building
design
transportation
and
requested
technical
positions.
I
have
for
item
16
that
the
group
includes
mr.
Brown
mr.
Curran
mr.
Barton,
miss
grant
and
mr.
Raven,
but
mr.
C
Kern
will
be
the
unspeak
or
the
petition,
and
we
have
two
speakers
against
Mary,
Ann,
Gaffney
and
Heather
McAfee,
and
so
this
will
have
the
staff
presentation.
The
petitioner
will
have
ten
minutes
and
then
the
opposition
will
have
ten
minutes
and
then
the
two
minute
rebuttal
and
so
we'll
start
with
the
staff
presentation,
and
then
we
would
recognize
mr.
Curran
to
start
the
petitioners.
That's
the
first
part
of
it.
Do
I
have
an
updated
list.
I'm
sorry,
I
have
an
updated
list
includes
mustachio,
also
against
miss
Elise.
You
will
also
speak
in
opposition
all
right.
C
B
You
petition
2019
115
about
four
hundred
and
fifty
four
point:
two
four
acres
located
on
the
north
side
of
Valentine's
common
Parkway,
south
side
of
45,
and
it
does
take
up
both
sides
of
Johnston
Road.
As
we
can
see,
this
is
a
area
that
has
multiple
zoning
districts.
We've
got
a
BP
C
D,
which
is
a
business
park
conditional
and
an
O
three
office
conditional
zoning
district.
That's
out
there
currently
what's
being
requested
for
the
acreage.
B
That's
involved
in
this
rezoning
is
a
mud,
Oh,
mixed-use
development,
optional,
we're
looking
at
an
adopted
future
land
use
from
this
area
for
the
South
District
plan
recommends
office,
retail
and
industrial
warehouse
distribution,
also
with
off
some
residential
for
the
site.
So
a
good
mix
of
uses
that
are
recommended
as
part
of
that
South
District
plan.
We
see
a
mix
of
some
of
those
uses.
Currently,
this
petition
certainly
brings
a
good
bit
of
those
mixes
forward
to
even
more
potential,
so
the
proposal
itself
the
overview
of
this
project.
B
As
we
said,
it's
about
455
acres,
they're,
looking
at
a
mud
zoning
request,
there
are
some
2011
entitlements
that
are
not
included
in
this
rezoning.
Those
are
due
to
them
not
being
petitioner
owned
property,
so
they've
been
excluded
from
this,
so
not
the
entirety
of
the
Corporate
Park
as
part
of
this
petition,
but
you
can
see
some
of
those
in
that
area.
B
Currently
again,
455
acres
is
what
we're
looking
at
for
this
petition
for
phase
1
of
this
project,
we're
looking
at
about
300,000
square
feet
of
non
office,
commercial
we've
got
200
hotel
rooms
that
are
being
proposed,
as
well
as
up
to
a
thousand
multifamily
units.
This
project
also
has
a
second
phase,
that's
considered,
and
that
was
about
400,000
square
feet
of
office.
Another
thousand
multifamily
units
that
gives
us
two
thousand
between
both
phases.
B
Then
we
have
300
single-family
attached
detached
units
which
could
also
be
converted
to
multifamily
at
a
one-to-one
ratio,
and
then
we've
also
got
a
third
phase
of
this
project,
which
is
generally
the
area
west
of
Johnston
Road.
That
part
of
that
project
would
really
be
activated
only
through
a
significant
transportation
event
and
an
updated
traffic
study.
We've
got
about
total
in
that
area,
about
1.5
million
square
feet
of
office,
50,000
square
feet
of
non
office,
commercial
220,
hotel
rooms
and
additional.
It
looks
like
1,800
multifamily
units
in
that
section
as
well.
B
We
do
have
an
affordable
housing
component
for
this
project.
There's
some
commitments
in
each
phase
for
phase
one
we've
got
units
that
are
being
proposed
for
affordability
in
this
part
of
the
project
and
that
would
be
at
80.
80
of
those
units
would
be
at
80
percent
or
less
ami
for
30
years.
20
would
be
at
60%
ami
and
then
would
be
issued
prior
to
that
final
CEO.
For
that
thousandth
unit
we've
got
phase.
Two
also
has
a
similar
commitment
to
affordability
and
phase.
B
Three
also
has
a
commitment:
that's
carrying
forward
some
affordability,
components
of
that
as
well.
So
right
now,
we've
got
a
minimum
of
one
hundred
acres
of
open
space
also
being
proposed,
and
that
would
also
have
active
uses,
pass
abuses
and
and
some
other
items
that
will
be
incorporated
into
that
open
space
area
generally.
The
connectivity
and
pedestrian
connections
are
shown
throughout
the
site.
Those
are
being
enhanced
to
provide
a
lot
more
cross
connectivity
with
this
infill
of
development.
R
Thank
you
all
right,
Felix,
over
on
with
DDOT,
this
petition
was
required
to
provide
a
traffic
impact
study
by
both
NCDOT
and
CDOT.
As
part
of
our
review,
we
coordinated
with
Katz
to
perform
a
comprehensive
review
of
this
development.
The
first
couple
of
slides
will
focus
on
intersection
improvements
and
the
future
slides
will
focus
on
the
more
robust
review
of
the
future
development
commitments.
To
give
some
bearings.
R
521
runs
north
and
south
for
my
cursor
right
here
and
then
you've
got
Ballantine
Commons
Parkway.
That
runs
east-west
as
if
you
can
see
my
cursor
running
right
here.
The
development
is
this
pink
polygon,
pink,

the
traffic
impact
study,

and
phase
two
development
uses
the
comprehensive
traffic
impacts
that
are
reviewed,
21
new
sections
and
are
shown
with
the
red
and
yellow
circles.
The
study
were
required
mitigations
at
all
the
intersections
face.
1
completion
will
be
in
2025
and
phase
2
completion
will
be
in
2030.
Each
phase
has
its
own
mitigation.
R
R
R
R
For
this
slide,
we
want
to
highlight
some
of
the
improvements
by
taking
a
deeper
dive
into
the
site
plan.
Just
as
a
reminder,
this
slide
is
not
showing
all
the
improvements.
There's
gonna
be
more
improvements
associated
with
the
development
as
part
of
the
robust
review,
we
strategize
with
the
development
team
cats
and
NCDOT
to
provide
mobility
options
for
the
area
from
a
regional
connectivity
perspective.
R
The
petition
is
going
to
preserve
the
right-of-way
for
the
connection
NCDOT
stood
in
the
physical
body
as
part
of
its
long-range
plan
from
an
activity
center
connectivity,
the
purple
lines
show
the
two
east-west
roads
and
one
north-south
road.
The
streets
have
enhanced
pedestrian
and
bicycle
facilities
to
promote
walkability
and
bicycle
use
within
the
development.
R
For
my
local
connectivity,
you
guys
will
be
able
to
see
the
red
lines.
That's
your
the
local
Street
Network.
All
the
local
streets
will
have
wide
sidewalks
to
increased
walkability
and
encourage
in
the
site
has
a
compensate
comprehensive
sheet
network
to
improve
mobility
for
all
users.
In
addition,
the
project
will
also
provide
future
traffic
signals
that
are
shown
with
the
little
traffic
signals.
R
This
shot,
this
slide
shows
the
long-range
mobility
complements
as
part
of
coordination
with
cats,
NCDOT
and
cidade.
For
my
multimodal
commitment,
we
work
with
cats
determine
the
future
library
linemen,
as
well
as
the
future
three
light
rail
stations.
The
site
is
going
to
preserve
the
light
rail
corridor
through
Ballentine
that
will
connect
to
blue
the
blue
line.
The
blue
line
running
east-west
is
the
light
rail
corridor
and
it
actually
crosses
Johnston
Road
on
a
bridge.
R
The
development
will
also
connect
to
the
Greenway
on
the
west
side
and
will
extend
and
come
down
onto
Ballentine
corporate
place,
as
shown
in
the
green
dotted
line.
In
addition,
the
development
will
provide
a
transportation
demand
management
plan.
The
plan
will
providing
menu
strategies
promoting
transportation
alternatives
like
bike
sharing,
ride-sharing
walking,
biking
and
transit
Hughes.
As
part
of
the
TDM
plan,
the
development
will
have
an
on-site
TDM
manager
that
will
coordinate
with
all
the
tenants
to
strategize
transportation,
alternatives.
B
To
site
building
design,
some
transportation
items
and
some
requested
technical
revisions
that
need
to
be
addressed,
but
the
petition
is
generally
consistent
with
the
South
District
plan
and
the
recommended
use
is
within
that
petitioner.
Then
that
plan
it's
also
consistent
with
the
plan
and
supporting
an
integrated
mix
of
uses
in
the
Ballentine
town
center
in
the
regional
mixed-use
center,
as
well
as
the
goals
and
activity
center
found
in
centers
corridors
and
wedges.
That
call
for
a
mix
of
uses
in
a
pedestrian
oriented
forum
which
this
project
is
proposing.
B
So
with
those
plant
consistencies
and
the
facilitation
of
the
goals
of
some
of
the
plans
that
we
have
in
front
of
us,
we
do
recommend
approval,
will
revise
the
adaptive
future
Land
Use
Plan
as
specified
in
that
South
District
plan
to
a
residential
office
retail
uses
for
the
site,
but
again
staff
does
recommend
approval.
We'll
be
happy
to
take
questions
after
the
other
presentations
that
we
have
this
evening.
C
X
X
You
wonderful,
wonderful,
thank
you,
Thank
You
mayor,
thank
you,
members
of
council
I'm
here
this
evening
with
John
Barton
and
David
graven
of
Northwood
and
Jeff
Brown
and
Bridgette
grant
of
Maureen
Van
Alen
before
we
talk
about
the
rezoning
I
just
want
to
take
an
opportunity
to
thank
all
of
you
for
your
stable
leadership
in,
what's
obviously
very
challenging
times.
The
virus
has
tragically
taken
lives,
but
it's
up
in
all
of
our
lives.
It's
affected
Northwood
as
an
organization,
and
you
all
are
under
great
stress
and
challenges
and
we're
very
appreciative
of
your
public
service.
X
I
might
add
that
you
also
demonstrated
great
great
patience
this
evening
as
you
for
some
logistics
challenges
of
this
meeting
well
in
in
the
months
and
years
ahead.
Our
community
is
going
to
have
many
pressing
needs
and
Ballantyne
reimagined
helps
to
address
some
of
those
needs
by
providing
jobs
and
also
providing
tax
revenues
that
are
going
to
be
needed
for
all
of
us.
It's
it's.
It
was
a
timely
project
before
the
virus.
It's
certainly
a
timely
project.
X
Now,
as
we
move
through
the
slides
and
we
can
move
on
to
the
next
slide,
I
want
to
thank
all
the
members
of
the
of
the
city
staff.
I
won't
name
all
of
them.
It'll
consume
all
of
my
time,
but
they
all
have
been
simply
outstanding
to
deal
with.
This
is
a
bold
plan.
It
takes
a
suburban
office
center,
a
golf
course
and
it
transitions
it
to
an
urban
mixed-use,
vibrant
community
and
throughout
the
entire
process,
we've
been
very
engaged
with
the
community
and
want
you
to
know
that
you
move
on
to
the
next
slide.
X
Who
is
Northwood
these
these
pictures
represent,
who
Northwood
is
Northwood,
is
largely
owned
by
pension
funds
that
represent
public
sector
employees,
also
nonprofit
organizations
and
endowments
that
do
things
like
address
poverty
and
disparities
and
aptly
suited
now.
Medical
types
of
solutions
to
diseases
and
those
types
of
things.
Northwood
has
operating
platforms
where
we
have
a
product
type
specialists
that
work
in
each
product
type
and
two
of
those
are
headquartered
here,
headed
by
David
Raven
for
Northwood,
Raven
and
John
Barton
for
Northwood
office
and
a
substantial
presence
of
employees
next
slide.
X
X
X
Well,
when
we
talk
about
the
tax
base
created
that
I
alluded
to
earlier,
then
you
see
the
city's
share
of
tax
revenues,
both
during
the
tax
increment
grant
period
and
activity,
and
then
you
see
the
substantial
jobs
that
are
created
almost
7,000
jobs
with
the
just
under
a
thousand
of
those
being
in
retail
hospitality
and
amphitheater
and
timely
for
these
times,
5500
temporary
construction
jobs
over
the
first
two
phases
and
substantial
retail
tax
revenues.
Next
slide,
please
the
breadth
and
the
scale
of
this
rezoning.
X
When
we
talk
about
acres
to
put
that
in
perspective,
what
you
see
outlined
here
in
green
or
the
2,000
acres
that
represent
the
original
master
plan
of
Ballantyne,
what's
outlined
in
white,
is
what
we
refer
to
you.
Today's
Ballantyne
Corporate
Park,
and
it
is
the
area
that
is
largely
impacted
by
this
rezoning.
So
we
go
to
the
next
slide.
If
we
take
that
same
area-
and
we
put
it
over
the
district
of
South
Park
commercial
district
south
park
or
even
our
Center
City,
you
get
the
magnitude
of
the
area.
X
That's
involved
here,
and
the
importance
of
what
we're
trying
to
achieve
here
to
all
of
Charlotte
and
I.
Think
it's
also
fair
to
point
out
here
that
this
is
part
of
the
argument
for
public
investment.
When
we're
talking
about
an
area
of
this
magnitude.
Next
slide,
please.
This
is
Ballentine
today,
as
many
of
you
might
recognize
the
hotel
in
the
left-hand
corner,
the
office
buildings
up
to
the
right
and
a
magnificent
Golf
Course
in
green
area
in
between,
and
if
we
go
to
the
next
slide.
X
X
I
know
all
of
us
longed
for
the
opportunity
to
go
back
to
this
type
of
a
setting
to
engage
with
others
to
the
window
shop
and
to
enjoy
restaurants
and
dining,
and
an
amphitheater,
as
you
see
in
the
lower
left
hand
corner,
and
we
will
return
to
that
normalcy,
and
this
will
be
an
exciting,
a
byproduct
of
Ballantyne
reimagine
next
slide.
Please.
X
This
slide
captures
both
phase
one
and
phase
two,
which
you
see
outlined
in
green
and
in
kind
of
that
lower
left-hand
corner
or
what
you've
seen
in
the
last
few
slides.
That
is
largely
where
the
hotel
is
and
and
what
I
just
described
as
the
stream
park
and
the
amphitheater
and
outlined
in
blue
is
Phase
two,
and
that
really
takes
out
what
most
of
us
would
think
of
today
as
the
Golf
Course
and
instead
we're
bringing
residential
there.
X
X
I've
said
over
and
over
again
a
commitment
to
green
space.
This
slide
gives
you
a
real
feel
for
it.
When
we
talk
about
500
acres
and
then
we
say
a
hundred
acres
of
open
space
recognizing
that
they
are
broken
up
into
many
many
small
units.
What
you
see
in
the
dark
dots
are
existing
parks,
almost
a
dozen
of
them.
What
you
see
in
the
light
green,
our
new
parks
that
will
be
created
and
that's
almost
a
dozen.
X
So
imagine
if
you
can,
if
you
can
not
multiple
parks,
the
size
of
romare
bearden
dispersed
in
a
500
acre.
There
is
not
another
place
like
that's
not
in
Charlotte,
not
in
the
Southeast
United
States,
not
in
Austin
Nashville.
This
will
truly
create
a
unique
product
for
all
of
us.
Go
to
the
next
slide.
Please.
A
X
Imagine
the
opportunity
to
take
advantage
of
romare
bearden
park,
but
have
a
water
feature
that
goes
through
it
and
walk
through
that
park
and
go
out
to
an
amphitheater.
This
is
going
to
be
an
area
that
will
Anker
South
Charlotte,
but
also
be
something
all
the
Charlotte
will
be
proud
of
next
slide.
Please
I
talked
at
the
outset
that
this
is
a
bold
plan
and
that
it
should
incorporate
the
values
of
our
community.
Certainly
affordable.
X
Housing
is
something
that
all
of
us
recognize
is
an
essential
element
of
any
ambitious
plan
and
balint
and
Northwood
is
very
proud
of
the
approach
that
we've
taken
to
affordable
housing.
We
studied
rezoning
in
the
last
year
or
two
and
said
we
want
to
set
levels
that
exceed
those
that
we
have
seen
historically.
X
So
that
is
why,
in
both
phases,
we
have
commitments
to
a
substantial
number
of
units
and
it
included
some
60%
ami
levels
and
have
not
just
done
15-year
commitments
but
30-year
commitments
and
unfortunately,
we've
seen
other
projects
struggle
to
to
to
achieve
their
ambition,
and
in
this
case
we've
said
well.
If
that
happens
to
us,
because
we
can't
get
the
appropriate
financing,
we
will
make
land
available
so
that
we
can
look
everyone
in
the
eye
and
say:
affordable
housing
will
come
to
balance
next
slide.
X
Please
I
won't
go
through
the
road
network,
because
the
staff
team
did
an
excellent
job,
but
you
see
here
in
this
green
grid
and
two
red
lines:
we're
going
to
be
bringing
lots
more
opportunities
for
folks
in
the
south
southern
part
of
the
city
to
get
around
and
have
mobility
options
next
slide.
Please
we
talked
about
this
commitment
to
light
rail.
X
It's
just
it's
an
incredible
commitment
when
you
think
about
a
reservation
of
right-of-way
through
all
of
Ballentine
at
no
charge
and
this
the
extension
here
equals
the
entire
light
rail
line
through
the
Center
City
of
Charlotte.
So
we're
hopeful
that
we
all
can
achieve
that
dream
of
light
rail
to
Valentine
next
slide.
Please
I
won't
belabor
what
was
already
said.
You
see
all
the
intersections
that
we're
studying
here.
All
these
intersections
provide
for
improvements.
X
We
are
working
with
NCDOT
and
CDOT
on
a
plan
that
might
say
we
will
take
out
some
of
these
intersection
proven
zhalong
521
and
instead
widen
Johnson
Road
520,
one
from
Ballentine
Commons
Parkway
to
Providence
Road
West.
You
know
that
would
be
something
everyone
in
South
Charlotte
would
find
very
compelling
next
slide,
please
so
in.
In
summary,
and
in
conclusion,
you
look
at
the
boxes
that
we've
tried
to
check
here
this.
This
is
an
ambitious
rezoning.
We've
been
very
thoughtful
about
making
it
equal
the
values
of
our
community.
X
While
we
take
a
part
of
the
city
that
has
been
very
important
and
refine
it
and
build
it
for
the
future,
and
it
is
right
for
the
times
those
that
know
the
history
of
Valentine
know
that
there
have
been
other
times
where
we
have
stepped
up
and
been
contrarian
and
said
we
believe
in
Valentine.
We
believe
in
Charlotte.
We
believe
in
the
Carolinas
and
that's
where
Northwood
is
today.
This
is
the
right
project
for
these
times
to
show
folks
we
intend
to
build
for
the
future.

Thank
you
good
evening,
their
lives
and
City
Council
members.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
tonight
regarding
rezoning
petition,
2019
and
115.
It
has
been
said
if
you
want
to
go
fast,
go
alone.
If
you
want
to
both
go
together,
I
am
here
to
request
that
the
City
Council
press
the
pause
button
on
this
petition
and
work
together
with
the
Board
of
Ed,
the
county
commissioners
and
the
public
to
go
far
and
build
a
great
city
that
includes
a
well-planned
and
well
thought-out
educational
system
for
children.
W
When
it
comes
to
educational
planning
in
Charlotte,
we
have
done
a
poor
job
of
developing
a
superior
educational
system
for
our
most
valued
citizens.
Our
children,
rezoning
petition,
20
19
115,
is
an
example
of
looting
too
fast.
This
petition
seeks
to
construct
over
4,000
residential
units
in
an
area
of
Charlotte
where
the
schools
are
already
heavily
overcrowded.
The
petition
seeks
to
move
ahead
with
a
plan
that
has
strong
public
opposition
and
unanswered
questions.
I
am
asking
you
to
take
a
hard
pause
now
and
slow
down.
W
I
am
asking
you
that
you
consider
your
current
residents
and
consider
the
children
work
with
the
public
CMS
and
the
county
commissioners
to
develop.
An
amazing
and
equitable
public
school
system
have
a
public
plan
in
place
with
dates,
locations,
deadlines
and
funding
prior
to
approving
any
new
development
in
South
Charlotte.
W
The
report
provided
by
CMS
paints
a
picture
of
Walt's
elite,
inadequate
educational
settings
at
the
high
school
middle
school
and
elementary
levels.
The
report
states
that
the
additional
Hamilton
may
add
827
students
to
the
listed
three
schools.
According
to
the
North
Carolina
government,
the
average
household
and
North
Carolina
supports
1.7
children
under
the
age
of
18,
with
4,100
new
family
residence
that
works
out
to
six
thousand
nine
hundred
and
seventy
children.
There
is
no
way
only
eight
hundred
and
twenty
seven
students
will
come
into
CMS
with
41,000
4,100
residences.
A
W
Reason,
it
is
only
at
171
percent
capacity
is
because
the
CMS
Board
of
Ed
voted
to
increase
the
average
class
size
from
20
to
25,
and
that
assumes
that
each
class
book
can't
that's
when
we
find
a
K
already
has
trailers
what
classes
cap
at
25,
28,
30
and
35.
You
can
just
add
teachers
and
trailers
to
solve
the
problem.
For
example,
in
science
labs,
you
need
soapstone
chamber
for
experiments
and
equipment.
W
We
heard
from
aboard
of
a
student
at
the
Board
of
Ed
meeting
in
February
that
it
okay,
there
aren't
even
enough
textbooks
to
go
around
textbooks
are
distributed
by
need
and
every
student
does
not
get
one.
What
about
James
there's
only
one?
What
cafeteria
and
one
library
technology
labs
would
have
to
be.
Added
I
will
inadequate
planning
impact
student
learning
and
when
do
overcrowding
and
safe
thing
become
an
issue.
When
do
they
become
your
issue?
My
answer
is
now.
W
This
is
your
issue
now,
and
you
are
going
forward
too
quickly
to
develop
responsible,
well-thought-out
answers
to
these
questions
and
Eden
Elementary
will
also
be
impacted.
Moody
into
a
hundred
and
forty
nine
percent
capacity.
The
increased
student
enrollment
grows
from
six
hundred
and
forty
seven
to
ten
to
one
thousand
and
sixty.
W
They
are
your
issue
now
I
implore
you
to
hear
the
public
I
implore
you
to
stop
and
think
to
work
with
the
public
CMS
and
the
county
commissioners
to
plan
in
a
way
that
will
allow
our
city
to
grow
and
go
far
to
be
an
example
for
others
to
value
children
more
than
dollars
or
size
to
value
children
more
than
new
homes
and
high-rises
to
simply
value
children.
More.
Thank.

Y
As
well,
that's
better
I
live
in
Valentine
of
a
parent
of
three
children
that
attend
CMS
schools,
Elan
Park,
Elementary,
Community,
House,
middle
school
and
Audrey
Pell,
High
School
I'm
speaking
this
evening
to
make
sure
that
we
truly
are
considering
the
stress
that
this
development
will
have
on
the
Ballantine's
infrastructure,
specifically
Valentine
CMS
schools.
On
page
nine
of
the
petition,
it
states
that
this
development
is
projected
to
produce
872
extra
students
to
the
schools
that
Marianne
mentioned.
Y
This
impact
is
being
measured
in
this
document
by
classroom
utilization,
which
is
calculated
by
the
number
of
teachers
divided
by
the
number
of
classrooms.
This
increase
of
students
was
would
result
in
the
three
impacted
schools
going
from
an
average
of
a
hundred
and
forty
one
percent
utilized
to
a
hundred
and
sixty-three
percent
from
overcrowded
to
overcrowded
I'd
like
for
you
to
look
at
utilization
from
a
different
point
of
view,
a
student's
perspective
looking
at
20th
day,
enrollment
divided
by
planned
enrollment.
This
is
how
the
school
district
looks
at
utilization
for
this.
Y
For
those
not
familiar,
it's
looking
at
what
the
school
is
built
for
and
how
many
students
are
currently
attending
the
school.
Using
these
numbers,
the
current
utilization
numbers
look
a
little
different.
A
k's
current
utilization
is
a
hundred
and
seventy
four
percent
utilization,
which
makes
audrey
cal
the
most
overcrowded
school
in
the
district,
a
hundred
and
seventy
four
percent
utilization.
Y
This
means
the
building
was
built
for
nineteen,
not
one
thousand
nine
hundred
and
twenty
students
and
currently
has
three
thousand
three
hundred
and
forty
two
did
you
know:
community
house
school
is
already
the
most
overcrowded
middle
school
in
the
district
and
the
largest
middle
school
in
the
state
community
house
is
already
at
a
hundred
and
sixty
six
percent
utilization.
The
building
was
created
for
one
thousand
one
hundred
and
sixty,
and
now
it
has
1925.
Y
The
numbers
are
staggering
for
community
house
there
is
no
relief
in
sight,
no
alternative
school,
no
bond
relief,
no
County
dollars
with
Valentine
reimagined
Community
House
will
without
question,
be
truly
bursting
at
the
seams.
Remember,
Community
House
is
already
at
one
hundred
and
sixty-six
percent
realization
I
realize
this
is
a
financial
decision
for
most
of
you,
but
I
urge
you
to
think
again
from
the
a
different
point
of
view.
Think
of
it
from
the
students
perspective.
How
is
a
student
going
to
learn
in
an
environment
with
so
many
children?
Y
What
is
their
social
emotional
mental
health
look
like
when
they
can't
be
a
part
of
a
school
play,
a
member
of
a
sports
team,
because
a
hundred
people
are
trying
out
for
fifteen
spots
or
just
trust
struggling
to
find
a
place
to
fit
in
in
such
a
big
school.
These
schools
are
amazing,
haven't
made
an
amazing
administration
and
staff,
which
makes
these
schools
some
of
the
best
in
CMS.
But
there
is
a
tipping
point,
including
when
we
are
thinking
about
approval
for
approving
Valentine
reimagine
project.
Y
C
Z
Right
I'll
be
fast
good
evening
to
my
friends
and
partners
in
the
City
of
Charlotte
I,
prepared
these
comments
a
while
back
before
the
coronavirus
turned
our
world
upside
down
over
the
weekend,
I
reviewed
my
comments
to
make
sure
that
they're
still
relevant
and,
in
fact,
I
think
they're
more
relevant
today
than
they
were
six
weeks
ago.
We
on
the
charlotte-mecklenburg
Board
of
Education
are
not
opposed
to
growth,
nor
are
we
in
opposition
to
any
specific
petition
or
petitioner.
We
are,
however,
in
strong
support
of
our
students,
our
staff,
our
families
and
our
schools.
Z
In
general,
the
Board
of
Education
is
asking
for
all
of
our
public
sector
partners
to
consider
the
impacts
upon
our
existing
educational
infrastructure.
In
the
same
way,
the
consideration
is
given
to
housing,
roads
and
even
sewer
systems.
Housing
is
undeniably
important.
Everyone
needs
a
state
home.
The
current
situation
that
we
are
all
living
through
highlights
at
the
next
step
in
addressing
inequities
and
economic
mobility.
However,
his
education
and
I
suspect
that
another
lesson
being
learned
or
perhaps
re
learned
in
this
historic
mount
moment
in
time
is
how
important
teachers
are.
Z
How
important
schools
are
how
precious
each
and
every
classroom
is
again
with
the
space
for
teaching
learning
and
the
free
flow
of
ideas
and
informations,
our
children
ought
to
be
more
important
than
the
fact
that
something
conforms
to
a
small
area
plan.
Our
students
ought
to
be
more
important
than
utility
capacities
or
the
width
of
a
travel
lane.
Z
If
we
believe
that
our
students
truly
are
the
future
of
our
community,
we
must
invest
in
them,
at
least
on
par,
with
the
way
that
we
ensure
our
developers
invest
in
other
items
for
the
public,
good
and
so
I'm
asking
tonight
that
we
all
think
through
the
ways
that
our
decisions,
the
decisions
that
are
in
each
elected
bodies,
purview,
have
constant
winces
unintended
as
Nick,
maybe
on
schools
and
on
students,
and
hopefully
we
can
then
identify
options
to
drive
positive
outcomes
with
intentionality
and
alignment
for
the
betterment
of
all
of
our
shared
constituents.
So
I.
C
X
C
X
Thank
You,
mayor
and
I
want
to
thank
the
speakers
and
applaud
the
service
of
pick
before
the
chairwoman
for
her
service
I
recall.
Finally,
my
time
is
chairing
the
Health
Advisory
Council
for
Charlotte
Mecklenburg,
Schools,
first
I
I
know
there
was
a
reference
to
these
submittals
I
would
encourage
all
to
look
at
the
petitioners
response
to
those
submittals.
X
We
met
with
the
superintendent
on
more
than
one
occasion-
staff
members
of
CMS
ones
on
multiple
occasions
to
talk
about
the
ratios
that
are
being
used
and
the
they
need
to
be
refined,
because
the
type
of
housing
that
we're
bringing
in
Valentine
has
older
children
and
fewer
children,
because
this
is
housing
that
is
for
empty
nesters
or
young
folks
for
the
top
and
family
formation.
Yet
so
the
numbers
are
overstated
and
they
include
phase
3
and
phase.
3
is
more
of
an
ambition,
type
of
element
of
the
rezoning.
X
X
C
M
Questions
I
would
like
to
make
a
just
a
statement
from
the
outset:
I
regarded
this
project
as
an
exciting
opportunity
for
district
7
and
for
Charlotte
as
a
whole.
As
you
know,
from
our
information
package
that
represents
a
huge
investment
in
Charlotte
to
create
jobs
and
present
me
a
significant
landmark
on
our
broader
cityscape,
but
it's
open
spaces
parks,
special
features
and
mix
of
uses,
I
believe
it
offers
many
advantages
compared
to
uncoordinated,
piecemeal
development
of
a
property
of
this
size.
One
factor
this
influenced
my
thinking
recently
is
the
effect
of
the
cobia
virus.
M
Northwards
operations
have
been
serious,
severely
affected
and
the
uncertain
economic
outlook
maple
is
this
project
riskier
than
it
was
before.
It
could
be
proved
to
be
a
good
thing
for
us,
so
we
even
still
have
a
private
investor
partner
who
can
move
quickly
on
a
1.5
billion
dollar
investment?
It
would
help
jumpstart
our
economy
during
the
coded
recovery
period.
One
notable
feature
of
the
rezoning
petition
is
the
inclusion
of
affordable
housing.
M
The
city
requested
these
units,
Northwood
responded
and
the
courts
of
negotiation,
as
the
mix
was
improved,
to
incorporate
some
60%
ami
units
as
well
as
80%,
but
because
of
the
high
priority
Charlotte
places
on
affordable
housing.
Discussions
are
still
going
on
with
the
developer.
An
improvement
on
this
affordable
housing
solution
is
possible.
Tracy.
The
Hudson
will
brief
us
on
May
11th
about
the
public
infrastructure
funding
and
where
the
affordable
housing
talks
come
out.
M
I
haven't
yet
experienced
an
outreach
from
any
of
the
bodies
that
are
responsible
for
managing
our
schools
to
try
and
initiate
the
kind
of
cooperation
that's
now
being
proposed,
and
at
this
point
it
feels
to
me
like
we're
being
asked
to
make
policy
on-the-fly,
introduce
requirements
or
issues
that
were
not
part
of
our
existing
zoning
process
and
I.
Don't
know
whether
we're
going
to
be
able
to
fix
this
quickly
I
think
we
need
to
work
with
CMS
and
I'm
very
eager
to
do
so.
M
I,
don't
think
it's
appropriate
to
try
and
just
do
this
on
the
fly
on
an
ad
hoc
decision
on
a
thing
this
size,
so
we
have
a
month
till
until
that
the
decision
is
made
and
I
look
forward
to
working
with
CMS
and
talking
with
constituents
and
with
schools
to
see
whether
we
can
work
out
an
answer
about
the
schools
or
how
we
should
go
about
it.
I
just
find
it
difficult
that
we're
now
trying
to
do
that
in
the
span
of
a
few
weeks
when
we
have
not
been
able
to
do
so
for
years.
G
Yeah
me:
yes,
my
question
is
for
Miss,
you
miss.
Thank
you
so
much
for
joining
us
tonight.
I
am
glad
that
you,
as
a
school
board
member,
have
have
joined
us
for
our
rezoning
need.
As
you
know,
the
city
of
Charlotte
and
CMS
interact
minimally
during
our
land
use
decisions
and
and
development
around
development
in
our
city
in
general,
all
we
as
City
Council
did,
as
we
are
reviewing
our
land
use
decisions.
G
G
There
is
no
collaboration
that
informs
us
of
any
contingencies
that
CMS
has
in
terms
of
adapting
to
the
growth
of
our
city
and
county
I
have
brought
this
up
to
two
superintendents
I've
spoken
to
several
individual
board
members,
and
you
and
board
member
Marshall
have
met
with
me
and
councilmember
Vicari
in
an
intergovernmental
setting
to
talk
to
come
out.
How
is
the
school
board
going
to
guide
their
staff
to
work
closer
with
our
planning
department?
So
we
can.
Z
Z
Wonderful
well
I
believe
that
we
had
a
meeting
on
the
books
before
coronavirus
turned
our
world
upside
down
with
with
some
of
the
people
that
you
mentioned
as
well
as
the
mayor,
the
mayor,
pro-tem
city
manager
and
our
superintendent,
so
I
think
that's
we
can
move
that
forward.
I
know
we're
all
trying
to
kind
of
get
out
of
prices.
Potent
back
into
real
world
mode,
I!
Think
there's
there's
definitely
a
lot
of
work
to
do
to
ship.
G
N
N
You,
madam
mayor
and
council,
first,
let
me
say
that
I'm
very
excited
about
the
Ballentine
reimagine
project.
It's
it's
literally,
building
an
edge
city
with
all
the
components
necessary
to
be
successful
from
parks
and
greenways
to
arts
and
culture,
and
obviously
take
into
consideration
the
transportation
issue
as
well,
so
I
think
is
as
well
put
together.
It's
very
kind
of
comprehensive,
it's
literally
what
we
probably
need
and
in
keeping
us
we
get
on
the
other
side,
trying
to
redevelop
our
development
economic
activities
as
a
city.
N
So
I'm
excited
about
the
project,
really
excited
about
the
parks,
Ned
and
Northwood
team
in
terms
of
creating
more
open
space,
more
parking,
more
activist,
because
I
think
that's
really
important.
With
that
side
of
town
we
talked
earlier
when
we
met
with
me
about
active
space,
just
on
open
space,
tennis
board
soccer
fields
of
those
things
that
really
make
a
community.
So
I'm
really
excited
about
that,
and
it
can
really
go
a
long
way
in
terms
of
work
with
mckubre,
County
and
partner
recreation
really
to
an
ends.
N
Our
park
system
I
do
have
two
concerns,
though
wine
and
I
think
Edie
mentioned
it.
He's
willing
to
work
with
the
development
team.
Obviously
our
school
board,
chairperson,
is
on
the
line
as
well
in
terms
of
the
impact
on
the
schools,
and
so
I
would
just
defer
to
my
colleagues
mr.
Drake's,
in
terms
of
working
with
the
development
team
and
the
citizens
over
there
to
address
those
concerns.
N
Obviously
I
chair
the
affordable
housing
task
force,
as
well
as
working
with
the
the
great
name
of
his
committee,
and
we
need
more
affordable,
housing
and
özil.
This
is
not
a
part
of
the
reasoning
decision,
I'm
happy
to
hear
that
there's
still
a
willingness
to
talk
more
about
affordable
housing
and
getting
more
included
in
the
development.
Obviously
I
think
what's
here
is
a
it's.
A
very
good
start,
I
think
it's
it's
more
than
a
good
start.
I
think
it's
a
meaningful
contribution
to
the
development,
but
I
took
notes
of
what
you
said.
N
C
E
So
I
echo
what
some
of
my
colleagues
have
already
mentioned.
Some
are
going
to
repeat,
but
I
certainly
appreciate
a
district,
councilmember
dreams.
Doing
an
outrage.
I
had
a
conversation
with
him
and
I
know.
This
is
going
to
be
an
exciting
opportunity
for
our
region,
as
it
creates
almost
1.5
million
dollars
of
my
base,
especially
in
times
like
this
and
new
jobs.
But
again
my
concerns
are
similar,
as
has
been
all
along
around
affordable
housing
and
just
having
10%
in
phase
one
and
8%
in
Phase.
E
X
Thank
You
Councilwoman
in
the
original
master
plan
for
Ballentine.
If
you
recall
the
slide
that
showed
the
two
thousand
acres
in
that
plan,
we
were
thoughtful
about
where
the
employment
center
would
be
where
different
residential
intensities
would
be
developed
and
where
retail
would
be
developed,
and
in
that
master
plan
school
sites
were
identified.
That
would
make
sense
from
a
traffic
mobility
standpoint
from
a
student
safety
standpoint
and
the
like
one
of
those
school
sites
was
was
used
by
Charlotte
Mecklenburg
Schools,
the
other
site.
X
They
indicated
at
the
time
that
they
did
not
need
that
site
and
it
has
since
been
developed.
So
as
we
have
worked,
Charlotte
Mecklenburg,
Schools
and,
as
I
said,
we
met
with
a
superintendent
on
a
couple
occasions
have
talked
to
the
chairwoman,
talked
to
our
school
board
member
here
and
met
several
times
with
CMS
staff.
X
Why
a
greater
investment
may
be
required
to
get
enough
land
for
a
high
school,
for
example,
and
that
the
additional
tax
is
generated
on
a
billion
and
a
half
fresh
investment
can
help
support
the
school
board
and
the
administration,
as
they
endeavor,
to
try
and
find
those
sites.
So
well
we'd
like
to
think
that
we
we're
working
very
hard
hand-in-hand
with
them.
But
we
commit
to
you
that
we'll
continue
to
work
with
them
in
the
in
the
coming
weeks.
E
C
C
Z
Yeah
and
I
would
I
would
rather
have
staff
answer
to
that.
As
far
as
the
specifics
of
this
yeah
I
think
that
you
know
the
two
joins
today
and
we
actually
didn't
coordinate
our
our
words,
but
they
spoke
to
the
crisis
level,
crowding
that
we
are
experiencing
in
South,
Charlotte
and
mr.
Curren
of
the
challenge
of
finding
land
to
build
schools
to
relieve
overcrowding,
and
so
you
know
any
any
any
bit
of
land
that
we
can
sweep
out.
We
want
to
do
because
we
will.
A
C
E
Yes,
thank
you
very
much,
I
think
that
addresses
my
questions
having
a
fall
off
from
the
school
board
as
to
what
they
would
like
to
see
in
this
development
to
address
the
overcrowding
of
the
schools
and
certainly
continued
conversation
on
affordable
housing
and
I,
appreciate
petitioners,
outreach
and
I
think
we
come
a
long
way.
I
know
when
I
had
met
with
mr.
Curran
a
couple
of
months
ago,
original
presentation
had
about
83
only
80
percent
ami
affordable
housing
units.
Now
it
also
includes
60%.
E
I
D
Thank
you,
madam
mayor.
Mr.
Kern,
thank
you
for
the
presentation,
as
we've
had
a
chance
to
attend,
I
went
to
the
Ballentine
public
meeting
on
this
project
and
they've
had
the
opportunity
to
look
at
it
with
you
all
for
a
few
months
now,
and
it
really
is
a
reimagining
of
the
Valentine
area
and
it's
beautiful.
It
really
creates
a
Center
where
you
know,
we've
called
it
an
activity
center
where
you've
got
everything
there,
that
one
would
need
to
be
able
to
live
and
work
and
play
go
to
school
and
so
I
think.
D
For
me,
this
code,
19
experience,
has
really
highlighted
how
important
access
is
because,
as
we
I
live
kind
of
close
to
Freedom,
Park
and
I'm
hearing
people
that
live
close
they're
saying
once
they
closed
the
park
to
car
traffic.
People
were
parking
all
over
the
neighborhoods
to
be
able
to
have
access
to
that
park.
And
you
know
that's
a
really
important
point,
because
so
many
people
don't
have
access
to
greenways
and
parks
and
open
space,
and
they
you
know
we
can
see
now
how
many
people
really
crave
that
and
need
that
demand.
D
That
and
I
think.
That's
really
true
when
it
comes
to
arts
and
culture
and
schools
and
affordable
housing.
I
know
that's
not
part
of
this,
that
I'm
I'm
talking
about
the
whole
overall
ecosystem
of
where
you
live
and
work
and
play,
and
in
particular,
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
I'm
a
little
bit
concerned
about
is
that
we're
planning
for
multimodal
transportation.
D
But
if
we
are
limited
as
to
who
can
live
in
this
area
by
virtue
of
the
income
they
make,
then
all
of
this
planning
I
don't
want
to
see
it
just
be
for
a
certain
level
of
income.
I
hope
that
as
many
people
that
want
to
work
there
or
go
to
school,
there
can
also
live
there
and
and
again
this
isn't
about
affordable
housing.
It's
about
land
use,
but
this
is
just
this
opportunity,
which
I
think
you
know
is
really
most
of
the
way
there.
D
So
I
like
where
this
is
going,
I
like
what
I
see
I
do
hope
we
can
work
on
the
school
aspect
of
it
and
just
so
that
we
can
housing
so
that
we
know
the
land
is
there
to
be
able
to
add
later
to
you
know
whatever
it
is
that
the
housing
or
schools
that
we
still
need
to
make
this
a
really
beautiful
place
to
live,
but
but
so
far
I
would
say
it's
a
really.
It's
a
wonderful
product
project.
I
J
J
Miss
do
I'm
here,
okay,
so
to
see
you
at
a
council
meeting,
it's
just
so
profound
for
you
to
be
here
and
it's
very
impactful
and
when
you
state
that
the
schools
are
an
average
of
one
hundred,
sixty
four
percent
overcrowded
and
sounds
so
extreme.
But
we
know
that
in
many
of
our
zoning
decisions,
there's
a
overcrowding
of
greater
than
a
hundred
percent.
J
So
in
you
provide
maybe
a
graph
or
something
some
data
to
provide
of
any
schools
that
are
over
or
how
many
schools
are
over
a
hundred
percent
or
a
rain,
because,
while
164
percent
it
sounds
really
extreme.
We
know
that
there's
another
petition
in
our
book
today
at
124
out
of
the
range
and
my
councilmember
Drake's
was
saying:
I
mean
it's
not
that
you
know
we
we've
been
doing
it
this
way,
so
we
can
continue
to
do
it.
J
This
way,
I'm
not
saying
that,
but
just
so
we
can
compare
the
school
along
with
the
other
CMS
school,
and
if
this
is
a
challenge
that
we
have
to
address
it
with
with
this
petition
or
if
it's
something
that
we
know
that
it's
a
bigger
issue.
So
if
we
could
get
some
type
of
grass
or
some
type
of
data,
how
this
overcrowding
compares
to
the
rest
of
the
school
in
the
district,
I
know
that
would
help
me
in
making
the.
Z
Decision
yeah,
we
certainly
do
have
the
data
on
overcrowding.
You
know
in
the
crowding
numbers.
The
capacity
numbers
in
our
schools
throughout
the
district
can
get
back
to
you
and
I
recognize
that
this
is
a
tough
nut
to
crack.
I
just
don't
want
us
as
a
community
and,
as
you
know,
elected
colleagues,
to
become
numb,
because
the
crowding
is
so
intense
at
so
many
schools.
We
can't
let
it
make
us
just
shrug
our
shoulders,
but
but
I
also
recognize
it
takes
some
real
ingenuity
and
new
ways
of
doing
things.
I'm
thinking,
which
we
can't
snap.
Z
C
Before
I
ask
for
a
motion
to
close
I
want
to
thank
miss
Gaffney,
miss
McAfee
and,
of
course,
our
school
board
chair
for
bringing
forward
the
issues
that
I
think
really
are
concern
as
we're
a
growing
city
and
a
growing
community
in
a
growing
County.
How
we
plan
for
education
and,
what's
gonna,
be
different
about
it.
It's
I
think
this
is
one
of
those
things
that
it's
that
we
have
an
issue
like
this
come
up,
but
it's
really
much
bigger.
C
G
C
I
love
virtual
meetings,
it's
just
I,
you
know,
I
just
wish
that
I
could
see
people's
hands
and
leaning
in
and
back
and
forth.
But
that's
that's
where
we
are
today,
but
as
I
was
saying,
I
think
an
issue
like
this
one
just
raises
for
us
all:
what
are
we
going
to
do
about
education
and
the
opportunities
that
we
have
to
build?
Something
to
addresses
to
address
every
student's
need
I.
C
Think
it's
a
really
big
question
for
us:
it
requires
the
school
board,
the
county,
the
towns
and
in
the
cities
and
the
community,
so
I'm,
looking
forward
to
ideas
around
how
we
can
do
that.
I
want
to
thank
the
Northwood
team
for
working
with
our
staff
in
a
way
that
has
been
I.
Think
you
know
you
can
actually
have
really
honest
conversation,
honest
dialogue
and
get
to
a
good
place,
and
so
that's
been
helpful.
We'll
continue
that
I
think
that
I
know
that
we
are
planning,
as
mr.
Drake
said,
the
meeting
on
May
11th.
C
That
will
address
the
other
issues
that
go
along
with
this
decision
and
I.
Look
forward
to
that.
Thank
you
to
the
members
of
the
South
Charlotte
community
that
have
participated
in
this
effort.
When
you
look
at
our
committee
community
meetings
and
the
participation,
I
I
really
believe
if
I've
asked
mr.
Driggs
I
think
he's
talked
to
everybody
that
lives
in
his
district
about
this,
and
maybe
not
everyone,
but
a
good
percentage
and
I
also
think
that
the
Northwood
team
has
done
an
exceptional
job.
To
do
that.
M
C
A
motion,
and
a
second
all
in
favor,
say
aye
aye.
Thank
you
very
much.
All
right.
We
go
to
the
next
item
on
our
agenda,
which
is
item
17
item
17
as
a
rezoning
petition,
20
I
think
Ned
can
go
yes,
so
we're
up
for
ready
item
20
item
17
is
petition.
2019
183
by
Rhino
partners,
coffee
for
approximately
a
quarter
acre
located
on
the
west
side
of
the
plaza
in
district
1.
The
current
zoning
is
general
business,
pedestrian
overlay
and
the
requested
zoning
is
general
business.
C
Pedestrian
overlay,
optional
staff,
recommends
approval
of
this
petition
regarding
upon
resolution
of
outstanding
issues
to
site
and
building
design.
In
this
petition
we
have
two
speakers
for
mr.
mcvane
and
Carson
cuff,
oh
I,
hope
I
said
that
close
enough
and
mr.
McBaine
is
signed
up
as
the
primary
speaker
here.
We'll
have
the
staff
presentation
and
then
we'll
go
to
mr.
McBaine.
B
Just
know
that
the
Commonwealth
Avenue
and
McClintock
Road
at
that
intersection
there.
So
we've
got
a
request
this
evening
for
b2
ped
to
keep
the
B
to
peds
outing,
but
to
go
with
an
optional
provision
that
optional
provision
is
mainly
to
address
some
parking,
that's
affiliated
with
the
site
and
some
additional
redevelopment.
B
That
would
happen
as
a
result
of
the
site
changing
to
a
coffee
coffee
place,
so
we're
looking
again
at
a
land
use
recommendation
mixed
use
in
this
particular
area
of
the
plaza
this
petition
does
continue
to
allow
all
be
to
ped
uses,
does
permit
a
two
hundred
and
forty
two
square
feet
of
building
expansion.
You
can
see
that
building
expansion
highlighted
in
these
yellow
areas.
That
would
just
be
again
in
addition
to
the
existing
building
and
242
square
feet
would
be
allowed.
There
are
currently
seven
car
lifts
that
are
out
there.
B
B
We
do
have
the
site
maintaining
that
existing
tenth
of
planting
strip,
an
eight
foot
sidewalk
so
again.
Overall,
not
much
will
change
will
be
a
small
expansion
of
the
building.
Those
parking
lifts
would
go
away
and
we
would
be
dealing
with
just
like
I
said
that
optional
provision
to
address
those
parking
reductions
staff
does
recommend
approval
of
this
petition
upon
resolution
of
some
outstanding
issues,
it
is
consistent
with
the
plaza
central
pet
scape
plan,
which
does
recommend
retail
mix
juice.
B
The
site's
location
located
within
the
plasmid
with
business
district
and
the
pet
scape
plan
identifies
this
as
Billy
being
within
a
retailer
is
all
that
is
consistent.
We
also
do
want
to
note
some
of
you
may
receive
a
letter
of
support
from
the
Commonwealth
Morningside
Neighborhood
Association.
They
are
also
supportive
of
this
petition,
so
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
were
all
aware
of
that.
That
was
an
email
that
was
sent
over
the
weekend.
So
have
we'll
be
happy
to
take
any
questions
following
the
presentation
by
the
petitioners.
C
C
C
H
Thank
You
mayor,
not
a
question
so
much
I.
Imagine
Keith
was
going
to
reiterate
what
staff
pointed
out
that
there's
neighborhood
support
there
there's
no
dissent.
This
is
a
simple
modification
to
remove
parking
lifts
that
were
not
actually
being
used
in
the
first
place
and
actually
just
calls
more
difficulty
on
the
site.
Then
then
relieve
any
issues.
So
unless
mr.
mcvane
is
on
or
others
have,
questions
I
would
move
to
close
this
I'm
pretty
pretty
simple
hearing.
C
No
other
questions
we'll
get
mr.
Mac
vanes
presentation
and
put
them
in
the
record
miss
no.
We
can't
do
that.
We
can
do
that.
We'll
put
mr.
McVeigh's
comments
in
the
record
because
we
can't
hear
just
because
of
the
complications.
So
we
hearing
no
other
council
questions,
then
we
have
a
motion
for
mr.
Eggleston
to
close
the
public
hearing.
Do
I
hear
a
second
all
in
favor,
say:
aye
all.
C
So
we'll
go
now
to
item
18
petition
number
20,
19
170
by
sharing
Academy
properties
for
approximately
4
acres
located
on
the
northeast
corner
of
tavola.
It's
in
Council,
District,
six,
the
current
zoning,
a
single-family
residential
and
the
proposed
zoning
is
institutional.
Institutional
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
petition.
We
have
on
the
staff
presentation
and
we
have
mr.
Crutchfield
and
mr.
Carmichael
and
mr.
Carmichael
represents
the
petitioner
and
will
comment
after
the
staff
presentation.
C
B
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
20,
19
172
is
just
over
four
acres
on
Ebola
and
Wedgwood
I've,
just
in
close
proximity
to
Marion
deal
park.
The
petition
currently
is
zoned
r4.
The
property
excuse
me
is
currently
zoned
r4.
They
are
proposing
a
conventional
institutional
district.
The
site
is
governed
by
the
adopted
future
land-use
of
the
Woodlawn
park,
Woodlawn
area
plan
and
that's
from
2013.
It
does
recommend
single-family
at
up
to
8
units
per
acre
for
this
site.
Again.
This
is
an
institutional
request,
so
it
is
inconsistent
with
the
plan.
B
However,
staff
does
recommend
approval
of
area
plans
again,
don't
typically
recommend
locations
for
future
institutional
uses,
they're,
typically
considered
compatible
with
residential
uses.
The
kite
site
excuse
me,
is
currently
zoned
as
a
religious
institution,
so
we
do
already
have
institutional
uses
out
there.
The
proposal,
that's
in
front
of
us,
would
be
consistent
with
the
current
uses
and
expected
uses
associated
with
this
land
use,
it's
primarily
being
requested
to
add,
as
we
saw
a
similar
petition
earlier
daycare
facility
to
the
site,
along
with
the
main
use
of
the
church.
B
Q
H
M
C
Thank
you.
The
next
item
is
item
19
position:
2019
178
by
DRB
group
for
approximately
11
and
a
half
acres
located
on
the
east
side
of
Razzles
Ferry
Road.
The
current
zoning
is
general
industrial
conditional.
The
proposed
zoning
is
urban.
Residential
commercial.
Conditional
staff
recommends
approval
upon
resolution
about
standing
issues.
We
will
now
have
a
staff
presentation
and
again
mr.
Carmichael
would
represent
this
petitioner
as
a
main
speaker,
but
mr.
Martin
is
also
available
to
speak
if
he
chooses
to
and
so
we'll
hear,
the
staff
petition,
the
staff
presentation
and
mr.
B
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
2019,
178,
just
under
11
and
a
half
acres,
it's
located
on
the
east
side
of
rozzers,
Ferry,
Road
west
of
West
trade
near
Jetson,
Avenue
and
Zebulun
Avenue.
Just
to
give
you
some
context,
the
site
is
currently
zoned
I
to
conditional
they're
requesting
a
URC
conditional
district,
which
is
an
urban
residential
commercial
conditional
district.
We
are
looking
at
the
Central
District
plan
for
this
one
in
guiding
our
land-use
decisions.
B
That
plan
is
from
1993
does
recommend
industrial
land
uses
for
the
site
wherever,
as
you
can
see,
the
site
has
been
vacant
and
remains
vacant.
At
this
point,
there's
been
some
residential
existing
residential
development
out
there
and
adjacent
to
some
potential
Greenway
uses
and
some
other
uses
a
non-residential
along
Roz's
ferry.
The
petition
itself
this
evening
is
for
a
request
of
up
to
133
town
homes,
which
is
just
under
12
dwelling
units
breaker
at
11.6.
The
maximum
building
height
is
60.
Feet
does
require
architectural
standards
because
they
are
in
that
urban
residential
district.
B
There
will
be
new
sidewalks
on
the
south
side
of
Zebulun
Avenue.
These
townhomes
would
be
alley
loaded
with
garages.
We
have
standards
related
to
building
materials
massing
of
the
buildings
as
well
as
roof
form
and
the
articulation
on
how
to
place
the
the
proposed
and
existing
streets.
There
is
some
flexibility
to
convert
development
area
B
to
some
commercial
and
office
and
retail
uses.
B
That's
this
general
area
in
the
front
which
would
be
fairly
compatible
with
what
we
see
out
there
with
some
of
the
non-residential
uses
on
Razzles
Ferry
and
would
provide
some
additional
uses
for
the
folks
that
may
live
in
this
area.
To
continue
to
utilize.
There
will
also
be
a
new
cats
waiting
pad
on
Roswell's
Ferry
Road.
As
part
of
this
petition
as
well.
B
Our
staff
does
recommend
approval
of
the
petition.
There
are
some
outstanding
issues
we
need
to
work
through
just
related
to
transportation
and
some
environmental
items
that
we
need
to
address.
As
we
said,
it
is
inconsistent
with
that
central
district
plan
for
industrial
land
uses.
However,
we
haven't
seen
that
industrial
development
in
the
area.
There
is
some
residential
development.
That's
existing
out
there,
it's
generally
compatible
with
the
office
and
retail
that's
existing
in
the
area.
The
site
was
rezone
din,
2007
to
that
industrial
district.
B
However,
it's
remained
mainly
vacant
with
some
office
and
retail
uses,
but
never
of
those
industrial
uses.
As
we
had
stated
and
again,
the
proposed
density
is
supported
by
the
general
development
policies
and
it's
also
within
my
links
of
a
goal
or
a
links.
Gold
Line
stop
adjacent
to
a
bus
route
and
greenways,
so
we
do
feel
that
residential
infill
is
appropriate
and
we
do
recommend
approval
and
be
happy
to
take
any
questions
following
mr.
Carmichael's
presentation.
Mr.
Q
Ma'am
thank
y'all,
madam
mayor,
madam
mayor
for
10
members
of
council
in
the
zoning
committee,
I'm
working
with
a
petitioner,
James
Martin
with
the
petitioners
with
me
tonight
and
available
and
answering
questions
the
next
slide
on
the
site.
As
mr.
Penton
said,
it's
about
11
1/2
acres,
located
on
the
east
side
of
Roswell
straight
road,
the
north
side
of
Judson
Avenue
and
the
west
side
of
west
side
of
Zebulon
Avenue
and
the
west
side
of
West
trade
Street
the
site
next
slide.
Q
Q
There's
petitioners
request
and
site
B
rezone
to
you
are
CCD
the
comment:
development
of
up
233
townhome
units
on
the
site,
as
mr.
Penton
said,
that
the
alternative
scenario
is
that
105
townhomes
could
be
developed.
The
maximum
12,000
square
feet
of
office,
a
commercial
space
could
be
developed
on
the
corner
of
Rollins,
Ferry,
Road
and
Jetson.
Avenue
in
that
area
designated
his
devout
Mary
of
B
next
slide.
Q
Q
Access
to
the
Perim
units
would
be
from
Jefferson
Avenue
west
cape
treatment
at
long
Avenue.
As
mr.
Penton
stated,
all
the
units
would
be
rare
and
highly
loaded
count
on
you.
So
what
are
those
units
abut
public
streets?
They
run
public
streets.
Each
unit
would
have
a
garage
additionally,
therefore,
the
guest
parking
which
you
can
see
scattered
throughout
the
site,
so
there
should
be
an
abundance
of
parking
and,
as
you
can
also
see,
there's
a
good
bit
of
open
space
space
as
well.
Q
There
are
architectural
standards,
for
instance,
no
vinyl,
siding
OD,
vinyl
on
windows,
doors
garage
doors,
soft
trim
and
railings.
The
petitioner
would
install
bust
waiting
pad.
Additionally,
the
petitioner
has
spoken
with
and
met
with,
the
Park
and
Recreation
Department,
and
the
petitioner
will
either
install
or
pay
for
installation
of
three
benches
on
the
Stewart
Creek
Greenway.
Q
We
appreciate
the
staffs
positive
recommendation
and
we'll
have
no
issues
the
resolving
the
remaining
outstanding
cyclin
issues.
Prior
to
the
zoning
committee
semental
deadline,
which
is
April
27th
Oh
mr.
Pettis,
said,
there's
been
a
little
demand
for
these
parcels
in
the
last
13
years
for
visas.
Allow
them
the
currents.
I
mean
the
density
supported
by
the
GDPs.
We
think
economy
is
weak,
an
existing
zoning
and
uses
in
the
area
and
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have
all.
N
C
There
any
other
questions
from
the
council
before
we
leave
this
I
heard
from
some
folks
in
the
neighborhood
not
for
this
project,
but
in
the
past
there's
been
some
concern
about
townhomes
when
they're
built
and
they're
built
in
groups
of
four
or
five,
whether
or
not
institutional
owners
would
come
in
and
purchase
and
then
have
it
for
rentals.
So
mr.
Carmichael
will
there
be
limits
on
rentals
in
the
in
the
unit
in
the
development?
C
Q
V
Thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
council
and
staff.
Thank
you
John.
We
generally
would
apply
restrictions
in
our
covenants
conditions
and
restrictions,
the
deed
restrictions
for
the
property,
not
so
much
limiting
the
number
of
rentals,
because
it's
extremely
hard
to
enforce
it,
but
also,
but
we
do
want
to
restrict
the
duration.
We
want
to
have
minimum
lease
if
they
are,
they
have
to
notify
the
talent
home
association,
management's
word
if
they
are
going
to
lease
their
unit,
that's
something
that
we
consistently
send
all
of
our
our
declaration
of
covenants
conditions.
I.
C
I
say
that,
because
I've
seen
it
mention
in
a
number
of
areas
is
we
are
doing
some
of
these
new
larger
developments,
particularly
where
it's
close
to
amenities
like
Stewart,
Creek
and
close
to
the
the
goal
line
so
protecting
those
investors
that
are
going
to
buy
the
single
units
I
think
it's
an
important
thing
to
do.
I,
don't
know
if
we
can
put
that
in
a
note
or
not,
but
I
I
really
believe
that
some
evidence
of
that
is
important.
So,
with
that
I
have
mr.
Egleston.
W
C
All
in
favor,
aye,
okay,
next
petitioners,
item
number
20,
rezoning,
petition,
2019
181
by
clay,
Cooper
and
wota
Cooper
for
possibly
six
and
a
half
acres
located
on
the
east
side
of
North
Lake,
Center
Parkway,
it's
outside
of
the
city
limits
of
recurrent
zoning
is
residential
single-family
with
three
per
acre
and
the
proposed
zoning
is
urban.
Residential
conditional
staff
recommends
approval
of
the
petition
upon
rap
resolution
about
standing
issues.
We
have
mr.
Carmichael
again
representing
mr.
Cooper
and
mr.
McCleskey
McCluskey
as
speakers.
So
mr.
C
B
B
Okay,
apologize
for
that,
just
some
things
going
on
here:
2019
181,
as
we
mentioned,
our
three
is
currently
zoned
it
is
requesting
at
you,
are
to
conditional
zoning
for
the
property
they
are
looking
to
construct
we'll
get
to
the
plan
you're
up
to
78
multifamily
residential
units.
These
would
be
workforce
housing
units
for
all
units.
They
would
be
for
households
earning
eighty
percent
or
less
than
area
median
income.
The
building
would
be
five
storeys
max
and
60
feet
and
building
height.
B
They
do
commit
to
constructing
a
portion
of
Hux
Road
extension
on
the
site,
and
they
also
have
eight
feet
of
planting
strip
and
six-foot
sidewalk
on
North
Lake,
Center
Parkway.
They
would
dedicate
all
rights
of
way
to
the
City
of
Charlotte
or
NCDOT
either,
whether
through
these
simple
conveyance
before
the
first
CEO
is
issued.
Also,
the
hundred
foot
swim
buffer
would
be
dedicated
to
Mecklenburg
County,
that's
along
Dixon
branch
and
there's
also
some
specifics
for
architectural
detail
for
building
materials,
elevation,
facade
features
and
roof
forms
and
lines.
B
Let
me
go
back
one
slide
to
the
adopted
future
land-use.
This
is
from
the
North
Lake
area
plan,
which
calls
for
residential
office
and/or
retail
and
the
residential
development
should
be
up
to
22
dwelling
units
per
acre.
This
petition
is
consistent
with
that
we
do
have
the
multifamily
use
is
going
in.
This
is
at
eleven
point
nine
two
dwelling
units
per
acre,
so
we're
consistent
with
that
22
dua
recommendation.
We
do
have
workforce
housing
as
part
of
this
petition,
as
I
had
mentioned,
building
heights
less
than
what
adopted
policy
would
allow.
B
So
we
have
a
lot
of
positives
in
terms
of
our
rationale
for
our
recommendation
again.
The
main
point
is
that
it
is
consistent
with
the
North
Lake
area
plan.
We
do
recommend
approval.
There
are
a
couple
minor
issues
to
work
through,
but
we
will
be
happy
to
take
any
questions
on
this
petition
following
mr.
Carmichael's
presentation.
Mr.
Q
Ma'am.
Thank
you,
madam
mayor,
madam
mayor,
madam
pro
10
members
of
council
zoning
committee.
My
name
is
John
Carr
Monaco
I'm
working
with
the
petitioner,
whether
Cooper
development
clay
Cooper
of
the
petitioner
and
Jeff
McCluskey.
His
engineer
are
available
to
answer
your
questions
on
the
next
slide.
Next
slide,
the
site
contains
about
six
and
a
half
acres,
looking
on
the
east
side
of
North
Lake,
Center
Parkway,
and
it's
literally
just
north
of
Northlake
Mall.
It's
currently
zoned
r3
on
next
slide
next
slide.
Thank
you.
The
North
Lake
area
plan
is
mr.
Q
Patton
says,
recommends
residential
office
and
retail
on
the
site
and
the
residential
density.
The
max
and
residential
maximum
residential
density.
That's
recommended
is
20
to
join
unison,
acre
petitions
requesting
to
the
site.
Beer
is
owned
to
your
to
CD,
to
accommodate
the
development
of
a
single
building
on
the
site
that
would
contain
up
to
78
multifamily
drawing
units.
Q
Overall
density
would
be
just
under
12
units,
an
acre
for
a
period
at
least
30
years,
the
month
of
the
rent,
the
monthly
rent,
so
the
income
restricted
to
households
earning
eighty
percent
or
less
of
the
area
median
income
on
next
slide
next
slide.
This
is
the
site
plan
access
to
thee
by
way
of
a
write
and
write
out
off
it.
Look
like
Center
Parkway,
plus
an
access
point
of
Huck's
Road
extension
Tichenor
would
construct
a
portion
of
Huck's
Road
extension.
That's
located
on
the
site.
Q
Q
This
is
less
than
the
building
height
limitation
recommended
under
the
area
plan,
which
I
believe
is
10
and
12
stories.
So
we'll
get
a
cake.
You
know
the
swimming
buffer
future
Greenway
and
we
appreciate
the
staff
support
and,
as
mr.
Penton
stated,
we
shouldn't
have
any
problems
addressing
the
outstanding
issues.
They're
sent
out,
300
staff
analysis,
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Thank
y'all
for
your
consideration.
All.
C
P
C
To
the
council
members,
because
of
the
schedule
that
we
had
and
the
changes
that
we're
having
with
the
cove
at
19
reactions
for
council
meetings,
we
sent
you
today
a
new
revised
calendar
that
goes
up
unto
now.
I
think
it
goes.
It's
includes
starting
today's
meeting
our
zoning
meeting
that
we
would
continue.
April,
27th
and
May
14
I
mean
May
4th.
We
would
have
the
managers
recommended
budget
presentation
by
a
virtual
meeting.
C
The
11th
would
be
a
budget
public
hearing
again
we
don't
know
whether
that
will
be
virtual
or
not
the
May
18th
zoning
meeting
the
May
20th
we've
got
four
budget
adjustments,
but
we're
not
sure
how
we're
going
to
do
all
of
that,
because
we
just
don't
know
what
the
limits
are.
So,
while
we've
designated
these
things,
I
think
that
what
we
wanted
to
do
is
go
as
far
as
to
say
that
we
would
go
through
at
least
May
18th
with
us
and
not
be
open
to
skin
changes
for
the
20th
to
26th
and
the
27th.
C
C
M
C
Have
a
motion
against
Julie
uh-huh:
you
have
a
second
with
Julie,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
aye,
any
opposed.
Okay
with
that.
The
final
thing
that
I
wanted
to
say
is
that
this
actually
worked
out
pretty
well.
So
we
were
all
it
had
a
few
glitches
I
admit
at
the
beginning,
but
I
want
to
say
thank
you
again
for
your
attention.
I
appreciate
and
appreciate
the
efforts
that
we've
done,
especially
as
we
include
the
citizens
in
the
meeting
I.
Think
that
really
worked
out
pretty
well.
So
with
that
do
I
have
a
motion
to
adjourn.
