Description
This is the Charlotte City Council Zoning Meeting for February 17, 2020. Thanks for joining us!
A
B
Here
this
evening
we
are
about
to
begin
February,
17th
City
Council
meeting.
This
is
our
meeting
that
we
focus
on
zoning
decisions
and
Joan
zoning
hearings,
and
so
I'd
like
to
welcome
all
of
you
that
are
here
today
for
joining
us
and
those
that
are
watching
or
watching
as
it
plays
at
another
time
and
date,
we're
glad
that
you're
paying
attention
to
what
we're
doing
as
we
do.
This
work
I'd
like
to
begin
with
introductions
at
the
Dyess
and
I'm
gonna.
Ask
our
assistant
city
attorney
I'm,
just
great.
E
I
B
B
F
They
tell
us
to
be
afraid
of
those
who
are
different
to
be
suspicious
of
those
with
whom
we
disagree
back,
as
if
name-calling
is
an
acceptable
substitute
for
thoughtful
debate,
as
if
anger
and
intolerance
should
be
our
default
state,
rather
than
the
optimism
and
openness
that
have
always
been
the
engine
of
our
progress.
I
have
seen
what
happens
when
ideas
like
these
take
hold.
F
I
have
seen
how
leaders
who
rule
by
intimidation,
leaders
who
demonize
and
dehumanize
entire
groups
of
people
often
do
so
because
they
have
nothing
else
to
offer
I've
seen
how
places
that
stifle
the
voices
and
dismiss
the
potential
of
their
citizens
are
diminished,
how
they
are
less
vital,
less
hopeful,
less
free.
That
is
not
who
we
are.
That
is
not
what
our
country
stands
for.
F
No
here
in
America,
we
don't
let
our
differences
tear
us
apart,
not
here,
because
we
know
that
our
greatness
comes
when
we
appreciate
each
other's
strengths
when
we
learn
from
each
other
when
we
lean
on
each
other,
because
in
this
country
it's
never
been
each
person
for
themselves.
No
we're
in
thus
we're
all
in
this
together
we
always
have
been-
and
here
in
America,
we
don't
give
in
to
our
fears.
F
We
don't
build
up
walls
to
keep
people
out,
because
we
know
that
our
greatness
has
always
depended
on
contributions
from
people
who
were
born
elsewhere,
but
sought
out
this
country
and
made
it
their
home.
Our
greatness
has
never
ever
come
from
sitting
back
and
feeling
entitled
to
what
we
have.
It's
never
come
from
folks
who
climb
the
ladder
of
success
happened
to
be
born
near
the
top
and
then
pull
that
ladder
up
after
themselves.
No,
our
greatness
has
come
from
people
who
expect
nothing
and
take
nothing
for
granted.
F
Folks
who
work
hard
for
what
they
have
then
reach
back
and
help
others
after
them.
But
those
successes
come
a
set
of
obligations.
The
obligation
to
use
the
opportunities
you've
had
to
help
others.
That
means
speaking
out
for
our
most
cherished
values
of
Liberty
opportunity.
Inclusion
and
respect
be
great,
build,
build
great
lives
for
yourselves,
enjoy
the
liberties
that
you
have
in
this
great
country
and
pursue
your
own
version
of
happiness,
and
please,
please
always
always
do
your
part
to
help
others
do
the
same.

B
Want
to
start
our
meeting
with
an
explanation
of
our
zoning
process.
There
are
two
types
of
cases
that
we
will
have
on
our
agenda
tonight.
The
first
set
of
cases
will
be
decisions
that
the
council
will
vote
and
then
the
second
will
be
hearings
where
the
council
will
hear
from
the
petitioners
and
those
that
wish
to
speak
about
it.
B
If
you
are
here
to
speak
on
one
of
the
items
that
believe
that
starts
with
agenda
item
number
18,
if
you'd
like
to
speak
on
an
item,
would
you
please
make
sure
that
you've
signed
up
with
the
city
clerk,
miss
Kelly
right
down
here,
so
that
I'm
you'll
be
on
the
roster
and
I
will
call
your
name?
Is
your
case
comes
up
for
comments
for
comment,
I'm?
What
we
do
is
there
will
be
a
staff
presentation
for
the
hearings
and
then
the
petitioner
gets
three
minutes
to
speak
in
favor
of
the
case.
B
Unless
there
are
opponents
signed
up
to
speak,
if
there
is
opposition
by
either
the
staff
or
someone
in
the
audience,
the
petitioner
gets
ten
minutes.
The
opponent
gets
ten
minutes
and
then
the
petitioner
gets
a
two
minute
rebuttal.
If
no
one
is
opposed
or
signed
up
to
speak
for
any
one
hearing,
the
staff
will
provide
us
with
a
short
presentation.
The
counsel
may
ask
questions,
then
the
public
hearing
is
closed
and
we
go
to
the
next
item.
B
K
I'm
Sam
Spencer,
chairman
of
the
zoning
committee
of
the
Planning
Commission
I'd,
like
to
speak
to
our
Boy
Scouts
and
Cub
Scouts.
First,
we
are
the
committee
that
helps
determine
how
big
buildings
are,
how
many
houses
there
are
so
I
hope,
you'll
stay
and
learn
a
little
bit
about
what
we
do.
Allow
me
to
introduce
my
fellow
committee
members,
our
vice
chair
for
Gusman
cozy,
Watkins,
John,
Hamm,
Victoria,
wasa,
Kay,
Nancy,
Wiggins
and
Bo
and
McClung.
The
zoning
committee
will
meet
Thursday,
March
5th,
again
programming
alert
to
our
representatives,
Thursday
March
5th,
at
5:30
p.m.
K
here
at
the
Government
Center.
At
that
meeting,
the
zoning
committee
will
meet
to
discuss
and
make
recommendations
on
the
petitions
that
have
public
hearings.
The
public
is
welcome
at
that
meeting,
but
please
note
it
is
not
a
continuation
of
the
public
hearing
as
that
is
being
held
here
tonight.
Prior
to
that
meeting,
you
are
welcome
to
contact
us
to
provide
input.
You
can
find
contact,
information
and
information
on
each
petition
at
the
city's
website
at
Charlotte
planning,
org
Thank,
You
mayor.
Thank.
B
You
and
if
the
committee
members
have
any
questions
during
the
hearings,
we
will
call
on
them
and
recognize
them
for
their
participation
for
that.
So
now
there
are
a
couple
of
other
rules
that
we
have
as
we
go
through
this
meeting.
The
council
has
considered
that
by
10
o'clock.
Usually
we
have
exhausted
our
capacity
to
think
well
through
thoughts
about
any
petition,
so
we
will
at
10
o'clock
like
we'll
look
at
the
last
petition
that
we're
hearing
and
that
then
we
will
adjourn
those
items
that
we
don't
get
to
by
10
o'clock.
B
We
will
have
on
the
next
business
meeting,
which
is
in
the
following
Monday
of
this
meeting
a
week
from
today.
We
also
have
instances
where
people
have
looked
at
the
petitions
that
we're
doing
and
they
make
decisions
on
they've
requested,
deferrals
and
I'm
going
to
read
through
the
deferrals.
If
you
hear
the
item
number
or
the
petition
number
and
this
person
has
deferred
the
deferrals
are
until
March
the
16th
2020
on
the
meeting
of
March,
the
16th
so
it'll
be
next
month.
B
The
following
items
and
petition
numbers
have
been
deferred
and
we
will
make
a
vote.
I'm.
Sorry
we
will
vote

B
B
Have
a
motion
and
a
second
all
in
favor
of
accepting
the
deferral
say
aye
all
right.
We
have
one
request
for
a
withdrawal
of
a
petition.
It
is
item
number
35,
petition,
number
2019
1:06
by
darrell
Vincent,
and
this
request
is
to
withdraw
that
petition.
As
result,
we'll
need
a
motion
for
withdrawal.
There's.
B
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
all
in
favor
of
the
withdrawal,
please
say:
aye,
okay
and
as
well.
We
often
will
have
some
changes
that
will
occur
between
the
time
of
a
zoning
committee
vote
and
we'll
address
those
as
those
items
come
up
in
the
deliberations.
So
the
ferry
for
the
final
thing,
I'd
like
to
say,
is
on
our
decisions.
It
takes
six
votes
for
the
council
to
take
action.
Any
item
that
does
not
receive
six
affirmative
votes
is
thereby
defeated.
B
B
B
B
B
F
B
A
second
all
in
favor
of
not
sending
the
petition
back,
please
say
back,
please
say
aye.
Now,
with
that
we
can
go
to
the
section
the
council
will
adopt.
The
zoning
committee
statement
of
consistency
with
those
changes
and
approved
do
I,
have
a
motion
to
approve
or
deny
the
petition
so
moved.
You
have
a
motion
to
approve
the
petition.
Is
there
a
second?
We
have
a
second.
Is
there
any
discussion
very,
no
discussion,
all
in
favor
of
approval
of
the
petition.
Please
unuse.
Yes,.
N
B
Other
discussion,
all
in
favor
of
the
motion,
please
say:
aye
any
opposed
that
will
continue
on
to
item
number
six,
which
is
petition
2019
105
by
the
green
stone
group
for
possibly
five
acres
on
the
west
side
of
Enfield
road.
The
proposed
change
is
for
neighborhood
services,
and
it's
this
one
that
we
are
still
on
top
for
the
vote
and
the
zoning
committee
and
the
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
petition.
Is
there
a
motion
to
adopt
a
zoning
committee
statement
of
consistency,
as
it
appears
in
our
agenda
and
to
approve
the
petition
a
motion?
B
A
second:
is
there
any
discussion?
Any
hearing,
no
discussion.
All
in
favor
of
the
item
please
say
aye.
Anyone
opposed
all
right.
The
next
item
is
the
petition
2019
desk
121
by
jamario
rickenbacker,
for
approximately
one
acre
located
on
the
north
side
of
West
Boulevard.
The
proposed
zoning
is
urban,
residential,
commercial
and
the
zoning
committee
and
the
staff
recommended
approval
of
this
petition.
Is
there
a
motion
to
adopt
the
zoning
committee
statement
of
consistency,
as
it
appears
in
our
agenda?
Is
our
own
and
approve
this
petition
so
move
we
have
a
motion.
B
All
in
favor
of
the
motion,
please
say
aye
any
opposed.
The
next
item
on
our
agenda
is
petition.
2019
123
by
Magnus
Capital
Partners
for
approximately
two
acres
located
on
a
soft
side
of
granite
Street.
The
proposed
zoning
is
light.
Industrial
production
overlay
optional,
the
zoning
committee
and
the
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
petition.
This
petition
has
also
had
some
changes
made
to
it
since
on
the
zoning
committee.
B
So
I
will
need
a
motion
to
adopt
the
staff
recommendation
that
the
changes
are
minor
and
do
not
warrant
additional
review
and
the
following
changes
were
made
after
the
recommendation
by
the
zoning
committee
amend
that
the
conditional
notes
to
further
refine
clarify
commitment
to
reserve
and
dedicate
right-of-way
for
the
Future
Silver
Line
project.
Is
there
a
motion
to
make.
F
F
B
There
is
no
discussion
all
in
favor,
say
aye
any
opposed.
The
next
item
is
item
number
9
petition,
2019
138
by
row,
Mahone's
for
approximately
1/2,
acre
located
on
the
southern
intersection
of
Charles
Avenue
and
whiting
Avenue.
The
proposed
zoning
is
resident,
single-family
residential
eight
units
per
acre
conditional.
The
zoning
committee
and
the
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
project
and
there
are
no
changes
to
this
one.
So
is
there
a
motion
to
adopt
the
zoning
committee
statement
of
consistency
as
it
appears
in
the
agenda
as
our
own
and
approve
this
petition?
There's.
F
B
Have
a
second:
is
there
any
discussion?
Hearing
no
discussion,
all
in
favor
of
the
motion,
please
say:
aye
any
opposed.
The
next
item
is
item
number
10
and
it
is
petition
number
2019
130
by
JD
si
for
approximately
five
acres
located
on
the
eastern
portion
of
WT
Harris
Boulevard.
The
current
zoning
is
single-family
residential
with
three
units
per
acre.
The
proposed
zoning
is
seeing
multi-family
residential
12
units
per
acre
with
a
condition
with
conditions.
The
zoning
committee
and
the
staff
recommend
approval
of
this
petition.
B
N
Mayor
of
a
point
of
clarification
on
this
I
believe
that
there
was
a
typo
in
the
in
the
rezoning
petition
cover
page,
and
maybe
mr.
Penton
can
comment
on
this.
It
says
proposed
zoning
multifamily
residential
at
12
units
per
acre,
whereas
the
the
the
actual
paperwork
we
have
and
I
believe.
The
petition
itself
says
proposed
zoning
at
residential
8
units
per
acre.
M
That's
correct,
yeah
that
we
got
them
I!
Guess
the
zoning
on
that
flip-flop!
That's
our
right
now
with
the
current
zoning
is
part
12,
MF,
n
r3
and
the
proposed
zoning
is
RA
so
yeah.
The
current
zoning
is
excuse
me
r3
in
our
12
MF,
and
the
proposed
zoning
is
the
RA
staff
analysis
and
the
zoning
committee
recommendations
are
correct,
but
you're
correct.
Mr.
Newton,
a
cover
page
does
have
that
type
of
so
we're
looking
at
an
r8
conventional
zoning
district.
So.
B
B
B
Motion
and
a
second
is
there
any
discussion?
Okay,
all
in
favor,
please
say
aye.
Anyone
opposed
you
very
much.
The
next
item
is
item
number
11
and
it's
zoning
decisions,
petition
2019
140
by
C
investments,
5
for
approximately
2
acres,
located
on
the
north
side
of
Providence
Road
West.
The
proposed
zoning
is
urban
residential
conditional
and
the
zoning
committee
and
the
staff
recommend
approval
of
this
petition.
Is
there
a
motion
to
adopt
the
zoning
committee
statement
of
consistency
as
it
appears
in
our
agenda
as
our
own
and
approve
this
petition.
B
D
Just
wanted
to
comment
on
this:
I
have
had
objections
to
this
rezoning
from
my
constituents
in
district
7,
and
it
is
being
allowed
to
proceed
because
it
is
like
many
other
reasons
we
have
approved
the
issues
in
the
district,
as
elsewhere
in
Charlotte,
have
to
do
with
crowding
on
the
roads.
Providence
Road
West
is
a
difficult
thoroughfare
and
there
are
several
entrances
and
exits
near
there.
I
understand
that
what
I
can't
tell
you
is.
D
We
are
working
on
a
major
rewrite
of
our
zoning
and
planning
processes
that
will
change
the
way
these
things
are
done
effective
next
year.
We
are
also
in
the
midst
of
improvements
on
the
roads
that
are
intended
to
make
it
easier
to
travel
around
district
7
I.
Don't
believe
that
taking
six
units
out
of
this
is
going
to
solve
the
problems
that
we
have
or
in
fact
make
the
situation
of
Providence
Road
much
worse,
which
has
very
large
volume
in
relation
to
what
20
townhomes
would
put
there.
D
B
If
not,
we
have
a
motion
for
approval
and
any
opposed.
Thank
you
very
much.
The
next
item
is
item
number
12,
rezoning
petition,
2019
141
by
Mark
boas
for
approximately
a
half
an
acre
located
at
the
west
corner
of
North
Sharon
Amity
in
Casselton.
The
requested
zoning
is
urban
residential
conditional.
The
zoning
committee
and
the
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
petition.
We
have
a
change
in
since
the
zoning
committee
considered
this
petition
and
the
following
changes
will
need
consideration
to
whether
or
not
to
send
back.
B
As
a
result
of
road
widening.
The
petitioner
may
elect
to
forego
street
widening
and
only
implement,
curb
and
gutter
is
required
by
chapter
19
of
the
city
code.
As
I
said,
the
staff
recommends
these
changes
as
being
minor
and
didn't,
and
addressing
traffic
concerns
raised
as
a
part
of
the
development
and
did
not
want
an
additional
review
by
the
zoning
committee.
Do
I
have
a
motion
to
accept.
O
B
N
N
Thank
you,
madam
mayor,
so
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
two
numerous
community
members
about
this
particular
petition
also
meet
with
numerous
committee
members,
as
we
can
see
here
at
the
Dyess.
We
do
have
folks
in
the
audience
both
against
this
and
for
this.
Having
said
that,
I've
been
very
sensitive
to
everyone's
concerns
and
I've
heard
three
concerns
in
particular,
one
be
density,
one
being
traffic
calming
concerns
and
one
being
roadside
parking
concerns.
N
Speaking
with
the
petitioner,
he
has
agreed
to
come
down
on
the
density
on
the
site
not
once,
but
but
twice
he
has.
This,
isn't
something
that
should
should
in
any
way
shape
or
form,
destroy
the
single-family
detached
nature
of
the
community,
if
anything
maintain
that
also
with
with
duplexes
on
foreigners
and
and
I
wanted
to
mention.
So,
madam
mayor,
you
just
brought
this
up.
N
Also,
we
have
the
the
commitment
to
the
exploration
of
road
widening
on
Casselton
as
well,
which
will
will
allow
for
additional
on
street
parking,
better
site
views
and
in
overall,
safer
traffic
patterns
in
the
area
and
then
last
but
not
least,
no
parking
signage
on
Casselton
too.
So
after
all
of
this
I
think
you
know,
many
of
the
concerns
may
be
not
alleviated,
but
some
what
was
waged
and
under
the
circumstances.
This
is
a
a
rezoning
that
is
consistent
with
the
the
overall
character
single-family
detached
at
the
area.
N
P
Over
Arnold
Sadat,
the
traffic
comment
would
probably
happen
more
on
Casselton
or
Craig
I
know.
The
city
has
sidewalk.
Project
on
Sharon
am
being
a
little
bit.
It's
further
north
on
Sharon,
a
MIDI,
so
we'd
be
coordinating
with
the
CIP
sidewalk
project
as
well
to
try
to
find
out
ways
to
try
to
provide
some
try
to
use
this
funding
to
improve
some
to
provide
some
improvements
for
the
neighborhood.
P
B
And
I
would
say
that
I
have
a
hard
time
with
this
one
I'm
just
because
of
the
curve
and
that
Street
and
the
way
it's
done.
I
I
know
that
entity
is
really
important
and
growing
along
that
path.
But
I
am
very
concerned
about
the
traffic
safety
and
turns
in
and
out
on,
Karen
Anthony,
which
I
believe
is
marked
at
35
and
most
people
drive
50.
B
B
N
So
it
was
my
understanding,
mr.
Oberon,
that
we
were
looking
at
or
at
least
being
open
to
considering
the
possibility
of
traffic
lights
on
Sharon
amity
to
slow
down
the
traffic,
whether
that
be
at
at
Sharon
Amity
in
Casselton,
Sharon,
Amity,
Craig,
or
even
one
up
from
where
Casselton
is,
and
we
already
have.
So
it's
my
understanding
that
we
do
have
a
light.
So
it's
like
a
it's
like
a
blinking
light
right,
I,
don't
know
how
effective
that
is
at
Craig,
but
but
what
prevents
us?
Because
I
mean
this
was
my
understanding.
N
P
So
what
we
can
definitely
do
is
a
study
of
those
intersections
to
see
if
it
meets
the
needs
of
a
traffic
signal.
I
think
I
think
there's
a
the
wording
as
far
as
traffic
calming,
so
we
wouldn't
necessarily
call
a
traffic
light.
A
coffee
traffic
calming
I
think
maybe
that's
a
little
bit
of
the
disconnect.
So
we
could
study
those
intersections
to
see
if
it
meets
the
need
of
a
signal,
and
we
would
do
rather
than
gather
the
data
to
make
an
analysis
as
he
even
meets
them.
So.
N
So
I'm,
so
what
you're
saying
is
the
current
language,
and
this
is
something
that
I
think
was
the
understanding
of
the
petitioner
as
well,
and
so
there
was
some
confusion
in
the
current
language.
Given
that
confusion,
what
you're
saying
is
it
wouldn't
so
that
that
traffic
calming
language
would
prevent
or
exclude
anything
like
say,
a
lights?
Thinking
grants
a
20,000
I,
couldn't
pay
for
a
full
life
right?
Well,
I
think.
N
P
We'd
probably
have
to
look
at
the
language
a
little
more
carefully
I,
don't
I,
don't
know,
I'm,
not
saying
that
it
would
prohibit
them.
I
think
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
the
the
traffic
calming
component
in
the
and
the
signal
itself,
but
I
think
we
can
look
at
the
traffic
calming
look
at
the
language
as
well,
so
that
it
does
provide
the
flexibility
if
there,
if
it
there's
the
need
and
it
meets
the
requirements
for
a
signal
that
we
could
potentially
potentially
use
that
funding
for
to
fund
a
signal.
Traffic
signal
and.
N
I
guess
what
I'm
asking
is,
if
we
vote
on
this
right
now
and
I,
fully
understand
the
intention
here
right
from
the
from
the
standpoint
of
the
petitioner.
But
if
we
vote
on
this
right
now,
are
we
going
to
be
locking
in
something
that
was
never
the
intention
and
if
that's
the
case,
I
mean
what
procedures
are?
What
no?
What
is
it
that
we
can
do
to
make
sure
that
this
is
also
available
to
share
and
amedy.
P
N
N
A
G
D
G
M
That
was
on
Sharon
Avenue
and
Emory
Lane.
It's
just
just
a
little
bit
further
up
the
corridor
staff
did
recommend
approval
of
that.
Zoning
committee
recommended
approval
that
as
well
and
I
think
they
noted
in
the
zoning
committee
report
that
we
provided
back
after
the
eating.
Several
zoning
committee
members
noted
the
similarity
of
the
petition
to
the
recent
one
west
of
this
site
on
North
Sharon,
Amity
and
Emory
I
recommended
approval
of
that
as
well
and
felt
that
that
project
was
appropriate,
and
so
they
they
felt
both
projects
were
appropriate
for
the
corridor.
M
B
N
J
M
But
I
do
think
that
it
$20,000
commitment
towards
traffic
calming
initiatives
in
the
areas
determined
by
Sita
does
still
provide
the
flexibility
to
apply
that
to
a
signal
analysis,
and
if
that
signal
is
warranted
to
use
that
as
an
initiative
of
calming
traffic.
So
I
don't
think
there'd
be
much
more
changes
than
a
further
refinement
of
the
note.
All.
M
I
would
believe
that
it
provides
that
flexibility,
then
yeah
I,
think
as
determined
by
C
dot
could
be
speed
bumps.
It
could
be.
You
know,
neck
downs
in
the
neighborhood.
You
know
narrow
the
street.
It
could
be
looking
at
a
signal
could
be
pedestrian
signals.
It
could
so
I
think
there's
a
variety
of
things
that
could
be.
A
B
A
certain
amount
of
inconsistency
in
our
decision-making,
and
perhaps
it
is
because
we
can't
figure
out
how
to
do
with
traffic.
It's
just
something
that
happens:
I
just
think
that
in
this
case
the
single-family
homes
along
Sharon,
Amity
and
knowing
what's
going
on.
If
you
go
down
Craig
Avenue
now
you
see
development.
B
You
know
the
houses
are
going
up
and
there's
going
to
be
more
single-family
residential,
coming
out
on
the
street
and
I'm,
not
so
sure
how
we
handle
that.
But
I
think
that
it's
it's
and
it's
inconsistency.
And
then,
if
you
read
the
last
sentence
under
the
zoning
committee's
recommendation,
approval
of
this
petition
will
revise
the
adopted
future
land
use
as
specified
by
the
South
District
plan
from
single
family
of
three
dua
to
residential
12
dua
for
the
site,
and
is
that
what
we're
really
doing?
Is
that
what
we
are
our
intent?
F
His
motion,
we
got
to
do
something,
that's
appropriate
to
ask
the
petitioner
if
they
would
care
to
defer
and
meet
with
council
members
or
discuss
it
or
to
withdraw
it.
That's
what
we
don't
want
us
to
bring
it
on
the
petitioner
and
as
a
denial
and
then
put
it
two
year.
Moratorium
on
the
site,
so
I
would
ask
if
it's
appropriate.
If
we
can
ask
the
petitioner
what
they'd
like
to
do
from
where
we're
at
right
now,
it's.
F
B
J
T
B
So
we
have
a
motion
for
a
deferral
until
March
16th
on
the
floor.
We
have
a
second
all
in
favor
of
deferral.
Please
say
aye
any
opposed.
Okay.
The
item
this
is
deferred
until
March
16th
I
am
not
quite
sure
what
we
do
differently
in
a
month,
but
I'm
I,
guess
you'll
figure
that
out
when
you
meet
with
the
council
members.
Okay,
the
next
item
on
our
petition
around
on
our
agenda
is

The

The

petition
2019
desk

by

South
Tryon
Development
for
approximately
six
tenths
of
an
acre
bounded
by
South
Tryon
and
West
Hill
Street
east
of
John
belt
freeway.
The
proposed
zoning
is
uptown
mix,
used
optional
site
plan
amendment.
The
zoning
committee
recommend,
as
well
as
the
staff,
recommends
approval
of
this
petition.
U
B
All
right,
the
next
section
of
our
agenda
now
takes
us
to
the
portion
for
public
hearings,
and
so
in
this
case,
if
you
are
here
to
speak
on,
one
of
the
petitions
feel
free
to
come
down
and
see
the
city
clerk.
If
you
haven't
already
signed
up-
and
in
this
case
the
petitioner,
we
have
a
staff
presentation-
the
petitioner
gets
three
minutes
unless
their
opponent
signed
up
and
I
believe
we
have
at
least
two
two
hearings
that
have
opposition.
B
Well
note
that
those
items
on
the
agenda,
and
so
until
then,
we'll
have
the
staff
presentation.
A
petitioner
gets
three
minutes,
and
the
council
then
has
questions
and
queries
for
the
staff,
the
petitioner
as
well.
So
the
first
I'm
hearing
tonight
is
petition
2018
114
by
Seahawk
partner
holdings
for
approximately
two-tenths
of
an
acre
located
on
the
eastern
side
of
Thomas
Avenue
in
district
1.
The
current
zoning
is
r5
residential
five
units.
The
proposed
zoning
is
neighborhood
services.
Staff
recommends
approval
of
the
petition
upon
reading
issues.
B
M
Right,
thank
you.
2018
114,
as
we'd
mentioned
just
about
two-tenths,
of
an
acre
right
off
central
lab
on
Thomas.
This
site
is
currently
a
gravel
surface
lot
right
there
at
the
kind
of
the
heart
of
the
Central
Avenue
corridor.
Currently
zoned
r5
proposed
zoning
is
for
neighborhood
services.
This
is
governed
by
the
Central
District
plan
1993,
which
recommends
some
of
the
single-family
uses
up
to
five
dwelling
units
per
acre
surrounding
that
land
use
recommendations
are
mainly
for
office,
retail
and
mixed
use
with
multi
family
components.
This
particular
partition
is
again
redevelopment
of
existing
grab.
M
A
lot
to
a
building
that
won't
exceed
38,000
square
excuse-me,
3,800
square
feet
of
office
uses
and
any
incidental
and
accessory
uses
would
be
a
two-story
structure
with
height
compatible
to
the
surrounding
areas
per
the
historic
district.
It
would
have
an
eight-foot
wooden
fence,
never
green
shrubs,
along
that
northern
property
line
where
you've
got
some
residential,
just
next
door
and
then
an
eight-foot
sidewalk
along
the
property's
frontage.
This
petition
is
inconsistent
with
the
Central
District
plan
recommendation
for
single-family
uses.
M
However,
we
feel
that
the
proposed
development
is
still
consistent
with
the
overall
development
in
the
general
area.
We
do
have
some
protections
built
in
for
some
of
the
residential
component
just
next
door,
and
we
feel
that
the
use
and
building
will
be
compatible.
The
historic
district
will
have
to
weigh
in
and
provide
some
coordination
on
the
building's
final
architectural
style
and
outcome,
so
staff
feels
comfortable
recommending
this
petition
for
approval
upon
resolution,
some
outstanding
issues,
and
that's
mainly
just
to
clarify
a
little
bit
of
that
building
height.
M
B
V
Mayor
council
members,
Colin
Brown
on
behalf
of
petitioner
I
think
mr.
Patton
did
a
good
job
on
the
ever
view.
If
I
can
get
our
slides
up,
I'll
point
out
a
couple
things
as
Dave
mentioned,
the
property's
currently
zoned
residential,
but
it
is
a
commercial
parking
lot.
It's
a
gravel
parking
lot.
The
land
use
plan
calls
for
residential
uses
and,
if
I
had
my
slides,
that
show
you
how
there
we
go.
Thank
you,
ladies
playing
here.
V
This
is
us,
so
there's
kind
of
this
notch
of
four
Lots
that
are
all
surrounded
by
commercial
and
we
think
there's
kind
of
a
natural
line
here
of
commercial
uses.
So
here's
this
lot,
which
is
currently
a
gravel
parking
lot.
It's
got
commercial
on
each
side.
We
think
it's
very
unlikely
that
this
would
develop
as
a
single-family
home,
so
the
petitioner
has
worked
hard
and
coming
up
with
a
plan
that
works
for
the
site.
Initially,
they
were
proposing
a
parking
lot
here.
The
parking
lot
didn't
go
over
very
well
with
the
neighborhood.
V
So
they've
come
back
with
a
the
plan
that
Dave
walked
you
through.
What
I
did
want
to
show
you?
We
are
within
the
historic
district,
so
there
is
a
design
review
going
on.
I
can
show
you.
This
is
what
it
looks
like.
So
the
idea
is,
though
it
is
not
a
single
family
structure,
it
would
look
like
a
single-family
home
and
we
think
really
nice
transition
from
the
single-family
neighborhood
versus
the
more
intensive
kind
of
nightlife
uses
you
have
going
on
here.
The
plan
has
been
well
received
by
the
neighbors
extensive
community.
V
Outreach
has
been
done
by
Andrew
Rove,
who
intends
for
this
to
be
an
office
for
his
own
business
has
had
a
lot
of
conversation
with
the
knavery
owners.
We
have
a
letter
of
support
from
a
statu
who's.
Here
the
residential
neighbors
told
us
that
she's
supportive.
We
hope
to
have
a
letter
of
support
before
from
her
the
site
by
the
time
of
the
decision,
so
I
think
we're
in
good
shape
on
this,
we'll
continue
working
with
the
neighborhood
and
in
staff.
Hafidh
answer
any
questions
all.
E
V
There
will
be
two
layers
if
approve
it'll,
be
subject
to
this
conditional
site
plan,
which
shows
you
exactly
what
the
building
footprint
could
be
and
limits
it
to
these
uses,
so
we're
not
requesting
kind
of
retail
restaurant
uses.
In
addition,
there's
this
other
layer
of
governance,
which
is
the
historic
district,
so
they'll,
be
locked
into
they'll,
have
to
do
a
certificate
of
appropriateness
if
they
wanted
to
deviate
from
that
design.
B
B
We
have
petition
2019
142
by
Kennedy
now
it
for
approximately
a
third
of
an
acre
located
on
the
southeast
corner
of
Tuckasegee
road
in
Enderle
Road.
The
current
zone
is
in
district
3.
The
current
zoning
is
b1
neighborhood
business.
The
proposed
zoning
is
mixed-use
development.
District,
optional
staff
recommends
approval
upon
resolution
of
technical
revisions.
This
petition
has.
M
2019
142
is
about
point
two:
seven
acres
on
Tuckasegee
and
and
early
road.
It's
an
existing
building.
That's
out
there
right
next
to
Charlotte
comfort
systems.
We've
got
a
b1
zoning.
Currently,
what
we're
looking
at
is
request
this
evening
as
a
mud,
mixed-use
development
district
with
some
optional
provisions.
Apparently,
the
plan
for
this
petition
is
under
the
Central
District
plants
again
was
adopted
in
1993,
and
this
does
recommend
single-family
multifamily
up
to
eight
dwelling
units
per
acre
for
the
site.
M
The
plan
also
recommended
a
corrective
rezoning
to
r8
for
this
site,
as
well
as
other
properties,
don't
be
one
along
Tuckasegee,
however,
because
we
had
so
much
existing
b1
zoning
and
business
and
commercial
uses
of
those
properties.
The
site
and
adjoining
parcel
was
not
included
as
part
of
that
correct
of
rezoning.
So
that's
why
we're
still
sitting
at
it
with
some
b1
zoning
on
these
properties.
So
the
proposal
itself
for
this
petition
is
mainly
these
optional
provisions
that
we've
got
along
with
some
mud
uses
that
are
being
proposed
and
some
use
restrictions.
M
There's
instances
where
we
require
projects
to
build
some
of
those
Street
facing
walls
around
those
parking
areas,
that's
an
optional
provision,
they're
looking
to
opt
out
of
that
would
provide
some
landscaping
and
screening
in
lieu
of
that
now
the
petition
also
prohibits
uses
such
as
automobile
service
stations,
adult
establishments,
hotels,
motels,
labs
warehousing.
They
are
also
providing
a
six-foot
sidewalk,
an
eight-foot
planting
strip
along
both
Tuckasegee
and
into
Lee
Road,
six,
with
privacy
fence
along
the
rear
of
the
property.
M
Where
you
see
this
green
line
here,
to
kind
of
give
some
additional
buffering
to
the
residence
just
next
door
and
then
site
lighting
would
be
fully
captured
and
downwardly
directed,
so
you
won't
get
spill
over
off
of
the
property
for
their
own
lighting.
So
the
petitioner
really
is
looking
to
re
use
this
existing
building,
adaptively
reuse,
it
leave
it,
as
is
with
some
renovations
inside
some
facade
improvements.
M
I
would
imagine
that
parking
being
improved
out
on
the
site
and
again
just
maintain
that
building
as
is
and
established
what
we
as
an
eating
drinking
and
entertainment
establishment,
along
with
other
mud
uses
that
could
be
put
on
that
site
staff
does
recommend
approval
of
the
petition.
There's
some
outstanding
technical
revisions
that
we'd
like
to
get
made
related
to
transportation.
While
it
is
inconsistent
with
the
Central
District
plan,
it
is
consistent
with
historic
use
of
the
property
for
b1
uses.
M
Motto
allows
much
of
the
b1
uses
that
are
currently
in
the
zoning
ordinance,
and
we
feel
that
that
zoning
district
would
be
appropriate
to
allow
redevelopment
and
reactivation
of
the
site,
and
so
staff
does
recommend
approval
upon
those
resolutions.
Those
issues
and
we'll
be
happy
to
take
questions
following
presentations
by
the
petitioner
in
the
public.

You
Mary
laws,
hello.
My
name
is
Kennedy
Howard
I'm
here
with
my
friend
and
business
partner,
Tory
dandy.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
be
here.
We're
excited
about
our
project
at
31:31
Tuckasegee,
a
quick
bio
about
ourselves.
I
came
in
Charlotte
back
in
2001
as
a
financial
representative
at
the
Vanguard
Group,
where
I'm
currently
with
Wells
Fargo
I,
have
over
14
years
of
experience
in
developing
projects,
specifically
for
this
project
that
we're
doing
here
at
the
historic
and
early
Park
neighborhood.
W
Scholarships
Douglass
Twitty,
who
could
not
be
here
today
due
to
businesses
or
other
business
partner,
he's
our
contractor
and
principal
owner
of
Dre
builders,
retired
term.
Lieutenant
colonel
in
the
US
Army
here
with
me
today
also
is
or
engineer
Kenneth
Kornegay
of
CSE
engineering
consultants.
Our
project
is
a
martini
wine.
Tap
establishment
have
to
be
very
specific,
we're
not
a
club,
don't
have
anything
against
clubs,
but
we're
not
a
club.
W
We
also
are
excited
about
providing
jobs.
Economic
mobility
to
the
neighborhood.
Our
concept
is
very
simple:
we
look
to
be
a
part
of
the
neighborhood
networking
social
gathering.
Establishment
parking
will
not
be
an
issue
as
we
will
be
providing
valet
parking
on
the
weekends,
and
we
also
have
spoken
to
our
neighboring
business
partners
like
Scott,
who
owns
the
a/c
company
right
next
door.
Mr.
Soho,
who
owns
the
convenience,
store
and
also
the
owner
of
the
church,
which
is
right
across
the
street
at
end
early
part,
which
is
only
400
feet
from
our
business.
W
W
We
are
proud
to
partner
up
with
the
Charlotte
Mecklenburg
Police
Department,
for
our
security,
as
we
will
hire
off-duty
officers
to
provide
security,
adding
to
a
safe
venue
and
community
environment
when
it
comes
to
leaving
the
neighborhood
we're
not
doing
a
six-year
lease
coming
in
and
coming
out.
We
have
the
actual
privilege
we
actually
owned
the
building.
So
we
have
no
mortgage,
no
note
or
anything
so
we're
here
to
say:
that's
why
I
bring
that
up.
T
B
X
Good
evening,
mayor
and
council,
and
what
I'm
gonna
tell
you
this
evening
is
nothing
I
have
not
already
hoped
told
these,
gentlemen
in
person
I
believe
they
are
exceptional
business.
Tell
us
your
name:
I
am
Daniel
Pentecost,
thank
you
from
the
Park
View
Neighborhood
Association,
and
a
resident
of
the
Park
View
neighborhood.
X
What
I
told
these
gentlemen
is
I
believe
they
are
exceptional
business
developers,
but
they
got
ahead
of
themselves
on
a
building
and
did
not
plan
for
parking.
What
they
did
not
address
in
the
parking
is
that
none
of
the
neighboring
businesses,
according
to
what
we
were
told
when
I
specifically
asked
at
the
community
meeting,
will
give
them
long-term
parking
leases
that
would
enable
them
to
operate
as
a
be
one
business.
So
what
this
rezoning
presents
itself,
as
is
a
Hail
Mary,
pass
to
bypass
the
b1
parking
necessary
to
operate
this
business.
X
It
will
have
an
83
person
capacity
and,
if
permitted
to
go
forward
as
written,
the
council
will
be
embedding
a
business
that
can
attract
80
people
on
the
weekend
with
only
8
parking
spaces.
If
you
reference
their
parking
lot
design,
it
is
not
friendly
for
getting
in
and
out
of
with
lyft,
uber
or
taxis,
and
there
is
no
place
for
valet
stand
for
people
to
easily
drop
their
cars
off.
X
We
believe
that
it
will
create
parking
issues
in
the
neighborhood
and
we
further
believe
that
making
this
in
the
neighborhood
will
make
the
historic
Westside
the
place
you
come
to
build
a
business
when
you
cannot
afford
to
or
forget
to
gather
the
needed
parking
or
you
engage
in
your
business.
Part
of
your
Neighborhood
Association
believes
that
these
guys
are
good
business
people.
We
do
not
think
they
have
a
bad
idea.
We
think
they
got
ahead
of
themselves
and
will
not
have
the
required
parking
enable
to
enable
this
to
be
a
good
neighbor
in
the
neighborhood.
S
Good
evening
my
name
is
John
little
page
I
live
on
Effingham
Road
in
the
and
early
Park
neighborhood
I've
been
resident
there
for
two
years.
Although
I
lived
in
in
early
Park
for
a
short
period
of
time,
I've
had
a
chance
to
get
involved
with
community
events,
educate
myself
and
work
with
other
community
leaders
on
pressing
issues
as
well
as
meet
some
of
the
greatest
people
in
Charlotte
on
the
west
side
that
type
of
community
involvement
engagement.
S
Put
me
in
a
position
when
I
was
recently
elected,
as
vice
president
of
the
Greater
and
early
Park
Neighborhood
Association
and
I'm
here,
to
represent
our
Neighborhood
Association.
Obviously
I'm
here
to
speak
in
opposition
of
this
rezoning
petition,
just
like
mr.
Pentecost
here,
we're
concerned
with
the
rezoning
from
b1
to
a
multi-use
which
will
eliminate
the
requirement
for
parking.
As
mr.
penticoff
stated,
80
people
max
on
the
weekend
eight
parking
spots-
that's
the
math
is
really
hard
to
add
up
there.
S
So
my
concern
is
we're
going
to
set
a
precedent
on
the
west
side
for
new
businesses
coming
in
we're
going
to
up
an
open
up
the
floodgates.
Let
our
neighbors
know
that
parking
is
not
parking
for
new
businesses
is
not
important.
So
what
happens
whenever
you
know
they
get
the
rezoning
parking
starts
overflowing.
You
saw
the
map
there.
It's
at
the
corner
of
Tuckasegee
and
Enderle
Road
in
Turley
road
connects
with
Freedom
Drive.
That's
a
major
thoroughfare
on
the
west
side,
cutting
coming
back
and
forth.
It's
a
residential
neighborhood
back
there.
S
We
still
have
two
cars
on
the
both
sides
of
the
street
due
to
overflow
quality
of
life,
emergency
services
having
a
hard
time
getting
back
there,
such
as
Charlotte,
Fire,
Department,
EMS
police
department,
every
second
counts
during
emergencies
and
I
feel
that
this
is
a
security,
a
safety
issue.
If
we
start
having
parking
on
both
sides
of
Street
and
on
the
sidewalks
I
support
this
business
I
want
it.
We
as
a
neighborhood
want
it,
but
we
want
to
make
sure
it's
done
right.
S
We
have
so
much
talent
in
the
Westside
who's
you
know
can
could
work
for
mr.
Howard
could
provide
so
much
to
musicians.
Artists
in
the
kitchen
there's
many
many
opportunities
here,
but
we
have
to
make
sure
this
is
done
in
a
correct
manner.
We
have
to
make
sure
that
parking
is
Matt.
The
neighbors
are
not
being
overrun
with
parking
and
a
safety.
The
safety
side
of
it
is
paramount,
so
we
want
to
work
with
them.
We
want
to
make
this
work
so
I'm
asking
you
to
to
take
all
this
into
consideration.
I.
S
B
W
Thank
you
and,
as
we
spoke
earlier,
I'm
sure
I'm
aware
of
your
concerns,
but
we
weren't
and
are
not
a
head
of
ourselves.
This
project
and
this
study
we've
been
doing
this
for
over
a
year
and
a
half
almost
two
years
we
owned
the
building.
We
will
not
be
putting
all
these
resources
and
money
out
if
we
felt,
as
though
parking
would
be
an
issue.
If
you
look
at
breweries
in
the
area,
we
have
more
parking
than
larger
facilities,
but
I
understand
your
concern.
W
What
parking
is
not
an
issue
we
do
have
verbal
agreements
as
well
with,
as
I
mentioned,
our
next-door
neighbor
Scott
the
church
across
the
street
as
well,
and
the
convenience
store
as
far
as
parking
there
would
not
be
on
street
parking.
It
will
not
be
on
street
parking
at
all.
We
looked
at
that,
so
we
already
took
that
into
consideration.
B
E
W
E
W
Know
you're
asking
about
the
agreements
right
with
the
parking
we
can
get
verbal
agreements.
We
can
get
them
in
writing
as
well.
Okay,
but
some
when
you
talk
about
a
parking
but
we're
going
through
rezoning,
because
you
talked
about
a
parking
variance,
we
talked
about
a
parking
variance.
You
have
to
have
it
recorded.
Some
of
the
business
owners
do
not
want
to
have
it
recorded
more
particular
than
one,
because
it
has
to
be
like
a
five
year.
Correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
it's
five
year,
it
has
to
be
recorded.
So
parking
is
not
issue.
E
Okay,
that's
what
I
would
deduce
from
what
you
just
said,
and
my
second
question
is
I'm.
Looking
at
the
parking
lot
and
I
see
that
you've
got
some
these
three
spaces
that
are
catty-corner,
it
would
seem
that
if
you
rotated
those
thank
you,
it
would
seem
that
if
you
rotated
those
counterclockwise,
you
could
put
an
exit
here.
That
would
improve
flow
in
this
parking
lot.
Have
you
all
looked
at
that.
B
J
P
Can
they
can
yeah,
they
can
have
another
access
off
and
early
road
I
think
that
was
part
of
the
discussions
when
we
were
initially
speaking
with
them
about
that.
But
the
brought
up
the
fact
that
they're
trying
to
get
maximized
the
number
of
parking
spaces.
So
that's
why
that
one
access
off
end
of
the
road
didn't
come
to
fruition?
We
do
think
whether
we,
if
they
have
just
the
one
axis
of
Tuckasegee
road,
it
could
still
be
served
because
it's
not
going
to
generate
that
many
trips,
but.
H
Have
a
cop
have
a
comment
that
for
an
establishment
that
is
gonna
primarily
be
centered
around
martinis
and
wine,
there
might
be
some
wisdom
in
limiting
parking
and
modifying
behavior
so
that
folks,
don't
actually
drive
to
this
establishment.
I
might
use
other
means
of
transportation
which
might
but
a
safer
community
rather
than
folks,
thriving
and
parking,
and
then
going
to
that
establishment
and
drinking
wine
and
martinis
I.
W
Totally
agree
and
that's
why,
in
my
presentation,
I
said
we're
going
to
have
a
big
push
with
lyft
and
uber
as
what
most
establishments
like
our
kind
do.
I
totally
agree
with
you
as
well
also
right
next
door,
which
is
like
50
feet
with
Scott
homes.
To
a
see
we
have
more
than
enough
parking
right
there
as
well,
but
I
mean
I,
agree,
we're
promoting
lyft
and
uber
as
well.
B
F
Two
questions
one
two,
mr.
Winston's
point
I'm
working
in
with
the
rezoning
in
my
district
right
now
facing
some
of
the
same
challenges
with
concerns
around
a
lack
of
parking,
not
the
alcohol
component.
So
it's
a
bit
different,
but
one
of
the
solutions
that
they've
come
up
with
they're
going
to
try
to
push
for
and
I
might
recommend
that
you
guys
consider
in
your
dialogue
with
the
neighbors
is
they're.
F
Gonna
have
some
sort
of
a
reward
for
customers
who
show
with
their
phone
and
show
the
receipt
that
they
just
used
an
uber
or
a
left
to
get
there.
So
it
might
be
now
you
can't
you
can't
discount
alcohol
that
way,
but
if
there's
food
or
if
there's
a
cover,
charge
or
something
that's
not
alcohol
and
you
could
incentivize
people
to
say
if
you
show
me
a
time
stamp,
uber
or
lyft
receipt,
you'll
get
in
free
or
you'll,
get
whatever
food
item
for
ten
percent
off
or
something
that's.
F
The
strategy
that
one
business
I'm
working
with
has
come
up
with
and
I
think
it
proved
effective.
In
this
circumstance,
also,
you
said
it's
not
going
to
be
a
nightclub
and
I
know
type
of
businesses.
You
run
and
it'll
tend
to
be
nightclubs.
Are
there
our
restrictions
on
this
that
are
in
the
rezoning
or
is
there
anything
that
you've
committed
to
along
those
lines?
Yeah.
W
That
is
correct.
First,
it's
not
going
to
be.
None
of
my
businesses
have
been
nightclubs.
The
Jazz
Cafe
was
not
a
nightclub,
it
was
a
live
band.
Establishment
now
in
between
the
chairs
and
stuff,
people
may
get
up
and
dance
a
little
bit
did
overhead
music,
but
it
was
not
a
nightclub
Sydney's
martini.
My
bar
as
well,
is
not
a
nightclub
beer
to
be
provided,
live
bands
every
weekend
for
five
and
a
half
years
every
weekend.
So
I
just
wanted
to
clarify
that,
but
I
understand
where
you're
coming.
W
Not
not
opening
a
nightclub
at
all
and
as
far
as
the
business
operations-
oh,
let
me
get
back
to
when
you
talk
about
uber.
That's
a
great
idea.
I
like
that
and
my
business
partner
Tory
even
had
it.
We
brought
that
up
and
have
that
on
our
marketing
plan.
They
have
some
sort
of
incentive
and
discount
with
uber
and
lyft,
and
the
final
point
is
business
hours.
Operation
subjects
have
changed,
but
we're
opening
up
at
5:00
we're
ending
at
11:00
11:30
Monday
through
Thursday
we're
not
going
to
be
open
on
Monday.
We
don't.
W
B
D
I'm
trying
to
understand
why
the
staff
would
recommend
that
we
change
a
be
one
use
to
a
mud
rezoning
just
in
order
to
remove
the
parking
requirement.
I
mean
that
would
make
sense
if
there
was
no
need
for
parking
spaces
there,
and
therefore
that
parking
requirement
was
kind
of
onerous.
But
in
this
case
there
is
a
need
for
that.
Much
and
more
parking
and
I'm,
just
not
sure,
I'm
hearing
why
we
would
support
this
I
mean
the
way
the
parking
works
in
a
lot
of
areas
like
this.
D
M
M
This
was
operating
as
likely
of
somewhat
of
a
nonconformity
under
how
it
was
established
well
back
in
the
past,
and
the
parking
requirements
just
were,
but
they
could
fit
on
site
and
then
zoning
came
in
establish
that
put
a
specific
recommendation,
a
requirement
on
how
many
spaces
per
square
footage
you
would
have,
but
we
have
some
other
uses
up
and
down
Tuckasegee
that
have
about
the
same
amount
of
parking
spaces
for
a
b-1
use
and
it's
in
a
looks
like
a
new
building
or
it's
been
renovated.
That's
because
that
status
never
changed.
M
They
just
kept
the
building
operational.
This
building
has
not
been
you
know
as
well
occupied,
so
we
kind
of
lose
some
of
that
non-conforming
status.
They
would
have
to
do
60
spaces
if
I
remember
correctly,
for
an
operation
like
this
based
on
the
square
footage
I
think
it
was
one
per
75
square
feet
might
optional,
I
think
or
the
mud
district
is
one
per
600.
So
that's
why
we
get
about
seven
and
a
half
spaces
required.
They've
got
eight.
So
they're
meeting
the
mud
requirements
so
we're
not
waiving
any
ordinance
requirements.
M
It's
just
the
mud
requirements
are
much
less
than
the
b1
requirements
of
when
we've
got
an
adaptive
reuse,
that's
the
one
tool
that
we
have
to
kind
of
facilitate
adaptive,
reuse
of
a
building
without
being
overly
onerous,
but
certainly
understand
the
parking
you
know.
Component
of
it
is
much
different
than
if
it
were
operational
under
b1.
M
That
staff
still
felt
that
going
to
a
mud,
optional,
allowed
them
to
adaptively
reuse,
the
building
in
its
historic
state
and,
as
it's
been
and
then
provide
some
other
solutions
to
parking
through
some
other
arrangements,
they
did
try
to
get
a
parking
reduction.
That's
where
they
ran
into
that
challenge
of
folks,
not
wanting
to
moralize
it
as
much
as
we
require.
M
So
this
is
really
the
only
other
option
to
keep
the
building
as
is
use
it,
as
is
without
having
to
go
through
and
really
the
building
not
be
able
to
be
operational
in
any
form,
because
I
don't
see
where
they
would
be
able
to
fit
60
spaces
on
that
site.
The
other
alternative
would
be
go
to
the
Zoning
Board
of
Appeals
and
get
a
variance
if
that
would
be
applicable.
M
But
then
you
run
into
the
whole
scenario
of
hardship
and
all
that,
so
this
was
really
the
you
know,
solution
that
staff
felt
was
appropriate
just
from
the
historic
context
of
the
building
and
and
feel
that
we
still
get
an
adaptive,
reuse
and
meet
the
mud
requirements.
But
you
know
certainly
I
think
there's
other
alternatives
there.
Providing
that
could
help
alleviate
some
of
the
parking
concerns.
B
I
W
Not
exact,
but
the
church
across
the
street
there's
over
a
hundred
parking
spaces
they're,
not
over
100.
We
required
58
Scott,
which
is
right
next
door,
his
company,
the
air
condition
of
facility
he
has
over
20
we
can
put
in
there
in
addition
to
our
28.
So
that's
more
than
enough
right
there,
and
mr.
so
across
the
street,
in
the
back
portion
of
his
convenience
store,
which
is
within
the
limits.
W
If
we
were
to
do
a
parking
variance
which
he
doesn't
want
to
do,
has
over
recounted
743
to
be
exact,
and
he
said
we
can
use
the
front,
but
that's
not
including
the
front
at
all
and
I
will
say
this.
You
mentioned
it
seats
like
83
you're
not
going
to
have
83
cars.
Let's
be
realistic.
When
you
have
a
venue
that
seats
83
people
come
together,
maybe
two
or
three
or
four
people.
So
realistically
it
would
be
like
30
or
40.
I
just
want
to
mention
that.
M
B
W
E
W
E
E
P
Haven't
had
any
conversations
about
that
and
early
road,
is
it
just
almost
like
a
local
road,
so
we
typically
don't
put
crosswalks
on
just
on
a
local
Road,
where
it's
just
gonna
be
two
lanes.
I.
Think
under
thee
is
a
widen
out
to
provide
on
street
parking
so
with
providing
the
on
street
parking
that
and
so
price
trapping
calming
so
that
drivers
could
have
much
speed,
so
I,
don't
I,
think
I
would
be
fine.
The
way
the
road
is
if
people
park
across
the
street
and
cross
the
road
I'm.
E
P
That's
the
convenience
stores,
yes,
xyg,
actually
a.m.
there's
actually
a
pedestrian
crossing
right
across
there,
so
they
could
use
the
pedestrian
crossing,
so
they
can
get
across
Texas
Road
and
then
they
can
come
across
the
to
the
establishment.
So
we
already
have
some
ways
to
get
petitions
across
the
road.
It's
right
here.
J
B
I'm
hearing
is
that
having
access
or
agreements
to
that
for
parking
seems
to
be
a
significant
part
of
this
discussion,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
that
there
are
any
other
questions.
Anyone
else
have
a
question
aside
from
the
parking
issue:
okay,
I
think
you
heard
you
heard
from
the
council:
do
I
have
a
motion
to
close
the
public
hearing.
Some
take
a
motion,
a
second
all
in
favor,
say
aye.
Okay.
Thank
you
very
much.
Gentlemen.
Thank.
W
B
Alright,
the
next
item
that
we
have
is
petition
2019,
what
153
by
spectrum
companies
for
approximately
27
acres,
located
off
Carolyn
Lane
and
Joe
wittiest
with
Witten
Whittier
world
access
to
the
University,
City,
Boulevard
and
district
for
zoning,
a
single-family
residential
the
proposed
zoning
is
urban.
Residential
conditional
staff
recommends
approval
upon
us
outstanding
issues.
We
have
the
staff
presentation
and
then
mr.
McBaine,
we
back
then
will
you
coordinator
for.
M
Right,
Stu
Petain,
Thank,
You,
2019
150
to
just
about
27,
just
shy
of
27
1/2
acres
located
off
Carolyn
Lane,
Joe
Whitner.
It's
got
some
frontage
on
University
City
Boulevard
in
that
area,
Twitter
Lane
and
Rocky
River
Road
as
well.
We're
looking
at
a
are
three
single-family
residential
zoning
district
for
the
property.
The
proposed
zoning
is
a
you
are
to
conditional
zoning
district.
The
adopted
future
land
use.
This
property
is
a
bit
unique.
We've
got
several
area
plans
that
have
some
policy
on
this
site.
M
We've
got
the
University
City
area
plan
from
2015,
as
well
as
the
Newell
small
area
plan
from
2002.
We've
got
about
four
to
five
different
land
use
recommendations,
I've
got
some
multi-family
office
and
retail
residential
office
and
retail
single-family
residential
and
then
multi-family
residential
on
the
back
side
of
the
property
as
well.
So
there's
some
different
guidance
from
each.
So
we've
got
some
inconsistencies.
We've
got
some
consistencies,
that's
really
a
kind
of
a
challenging
parcel
to
really
convey
out
what
the
recommendations
kind
of
art,
because
there's
so
many
mixes
along
there.
M
But
overall
we've
got
like
I
said:
different
uses
that
are
being
recommended
office.
Retail
different
densities,
some
up
to
22
dwelling
units
per
acre
remaining
parcels
in
the
Newell
small
area
plan-
are
really
recommended
for
presidential
at
8
and
for
dwelling
units
per
acre
respectively,
and
that's
really
for
some
of
those
properties
that
are
going
back
to
some
of
that
single-family
transition
to
the
rear
of
the
property
that's
being
in
this
petition.
M
So
the
proposal
itself
we're
looking
at
405
residential
dwelling
units
at
a
density
of
fourteen
point,
seven
seven
dwelling
units
per
acre:
we
do
have
multiple
transportation
improvements
which
are
outside
of
the
ordinance
requirements
for
this
petition
and
also
an
80
foot
buffer.
That's
going
to
be
along
the
site's
eastern
boundary
against
existing
single-family
neighborhoods.
So,
with
this
petition,
we've
got
a
reconfigured
intersection
at
University,
City
Boulevard.
M
So
these
folks
will
have
another
alternative
to
get
back
out
to
University
City
or
get
through
from
Rockland
and
head
back
down
south.
So
the
petition
itself,
as
we
said,
has
multiple
transportation
improvements,
we're
looking
at
an
area
in
the
university
city
that
you
can
see
we're
a
little
bit
in
short
supply
of
connectivity.
We
kind
of
end
a
project
here
we
end
a
road
in
this
area.
This
is
fairly
well
cut
off.
So
one
of
the
things
we
often
hear
in
this
area-
that's
really
starting
to
grow.
M
We
don't
have
the
same
infrastructure
in
University
cities,
we
did
in
parts
of
South
End,
where
we've
got
light
rail
as
a
form
of
transportation
and
we're
starting
to
get
a
little
bit
more
density
within
this
area.
The
infrastructure
transportation
network
isn't
necessarily
in
the
same
frame
to
support
some
of
that,
so
any
opportunities
we
get
to
enhance
that
transportation
network
certainly
are
welcome,
and
this
petition
certainly
carries
that
forward.
The
staff
does
recommend
approval
this
petition.
M
We
do
have
some
outstanding
issues
to
work
through
for
transportation
and
infrastructure
who
said
it
inconsistent
with
the
universitary
plan,
a
noodle
small
area
plan,
as
we've
got
mix
of
uses
and
different
densities
for
the
site.
That
request
the
density
does
exceed
some
of
those
recommendations,
but
we
do
feel
that
it
complements
the
adaptive
vision
for
the
University
City
area
plan.
It
proves
accessibility,
maximizing
those
local
Street
connections,
multimodal
access,
we've
got
different
improvements
for
Dave
McKinney
Avenue
extension.
M
We've
got
a
mix
of
residential
uses,
which
provides
us
some
appropriate
transition
between
some
of
the
student
housing
and
the
single-family
detached
homes
on
either
side.
We
do
achieve
the
small
area
plan
for
Newell
the
objective
by
providing
a
broad
range
of
housing,
and
we
feel
that
the
intensity
is
reasonable,
considering
that
were
just
over
0.5
but
just
under
0.7
miles
to
the
University
City
Blue
Line
station.
So
with
that
in
mind
against
staff
does
recommend
approval.
Y
You
thank
you
mayor
pro-tem,
good
evening,
mayor
Mayor,
Pro
Tem,
members
of
City
Council
members,
zoning
committee,
Keith
mcvane,
with
more
Van
Alen,
a
Jeff
Brown
of
our
firm
and
I
over
are
assisting
spectrum
properties
with
this
petition.
Some
companies
with
this
petition,
as
you
mentioned
with
me
here
tonight,
representing
the
petitioner,
is
Jason
fish
and
Ian
Waggoner
they'll
be
available
to
answer
any
questions.
Y
As
Dave
mentioned,
27
acres
located
at
the
Northeast
on
the
just
on
the
intersection
of
Carolyn,
a
southeast
quadrant
of
the
intersection
of
Carolyn,
a
University
City
Boulevard
spectrum
companies
is
a
local
Charlotte
company,
been
in
existence
for
about
37
years
specializing
in
residential
communities,
Nick's
use
developments,
office
and
hotel
the
developments.
These
are
some
of
the
most
recent
developments
that
the
spectrum
has
done
throughout
the
city.
Y
From
a
land-use
perspective,
as
Dave
mentioned,
we
are
subject
to
two
land-use
plans:
the
University
City
area
plan,
as
well
as
the
Newell
area
plan,
which
recommend
non-residential
uses
along
the
highway
949
frontage
as
well
a
mixture
of
residential
uses,
as
you
get
further
back
from
the
site.
This
proposed
development
proposes
residential
uses,
two
different
types
of
mixture
of
residential
uses,
both
multifamily
and
town
homes
for
sale,
with
the
transition
to
lower
density
at
the
back
of
the
site,
as
recommended
by
the
Newell
area
plan
from
a
transportation
perspective.
Mr.
poutine
has
mentioned
mr.
Y
puttan
has
mentioned
a
couple
of
items
in
terms
of
improvements
we
did
do.
A
traffic
study
worked
with
seed
out
on
a
transportation,
Technol
member
or
a
transportation
impact
statement.
We
are
making
improvements
along
University
City
Boulevard,
a
directional
crossover,
X
actuary,
a
signal
proposed
at
the
new
tree
line,
Carolyn
and
Dave
McKenna,
Boulevard
extension
as
well
as
left
turn
lanes
and
right
turn
lanes.
Y
Also
look
at
signalizing
the
intersection
here
that
would
provide
as
part
of
the
development
of
the
site
and
it
a
two-lane
road
with
bike
lanes
sidewalks,
as
well
as
three
trees
and
and
and
on
street
parking.
That
would
connect
the
site
to
the
future
to
the
existing
station
at
on
highway
29
49.
We
are
also
connecting
Twitter
to
sanctuary
that
was
mentioned
and,
as
required
by
the
Senate
by
the
subdivision.
Y
Here
the
higher
density
Apartments
are
located
up
toward
University
Boulevard,
where
the
area
plan
also
supported
higher
intense
mix
non
residential
uses
such
as
convenience
stores
and
get
and
and
and
fast-food
restaurants.
We
we
see
this
as
a
better
location
for
residential
for
a
residential
community
composed
of
apartments
and
townhomes,
as
they
mentioned.
80
foot
buffer
here
50
feet
undisturbed.
An
additional
30
feet
of
real
landscaped
buildings
are
over
a
hundred
feet
away
at
their
closest
point
along
here.
We
do
have
some
again
townhomes
zero,
a
little
bit
closer
but
maintain
the
80
foot
buffer.
Y
A
large
amount
of
open
space
areas
that
are
part
of
the
development
of
the
site.
We
did
also
commit,
as
part
of
the
conditional
plan
to
install
traffic
calming
devices
in
the
Crab
Orchard
neighborhood
here.
If
traffic
on
those
streets
increase
to
the
point
where
they
qualify
for
traffic
calming
devices
such
as
speed
fun,
we
do
have
some
architectural
renderings
of
what
we
think
the
buildings
might
look
like.
These
are
not
part
of
the
petition,
but
this
is
looking
down
Dave
McKenney
at
the
apartments
that
are
being
proposed.
Y
L
You
know
it's
important
for
us
in
University
City
that
we
make
sure
that
we
offer
a
variety
of
housing
options
and,
while
across
most
of
Charlotte
we're
seeing
robust
investment
in
apartments,
it's
also
important
to
us
that
we
tried
to
wherever
we
can
include
for
sale
products
that
will
also
serve
the
employment
in
University.
City
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
road
connections
when
we
first
started
working
on
the
Niecy
improvements
to
accompany
the
investment
of
blue
line.
L
This
the
road
connection
of
extending
Dave
McKinney
Boulevard
was
very
ambitious,
but
we
stood
fast
behind
that
because
we
recognize
the
value
of
having
parallel
connectivity
to
North,
Tryon,
Street
and
I'll.
Give
you
an
example
why,
about
three
weeks
ago
we
had
a
significant
accident
on
North
Tryon
Street
near
the
University
that
shut
down
the
light
rail
and
both
sides
of
North
Tryon
Street.
L
We
do
not
have
parallel
connectivity
along
North,
Tryon
Street,
so
we're
thrilled
that
this
project
came
before
us
and
gave
us
that
opportunity
to
add
that
connectivity
I
also
think
it
is
going
to
be
a
remarkable
enhancement
for
folks
who
travel
on
Rocky
River
Road,
because
for
a
lot
of
the
residents
who
live
on
rye
or
live
off
of
Rocky
River
Road
or
who
traverse
that
it
has
no
additional
outlet.
So
traffic
does
tend
to
stack
on
Rocky,
River,
Road
and
Dave.
L
Mckinney
Boulevard
will
give
commuters
and
travelers
an
alternative
to
only
using
Rocky
River
Road
to
North
Tryon.
Street
I
also
want
to
remind
you
of
the
importance,
especially
in
our
more
suburban
neighborhoods,
that
are
becoming
more
dense
and
urban.
The
importance
of
investing
in
grid,
as
I
have
mentioned
several
times
before
you.
We
cannot
keep
building
our
big
roads
bigger.
We
have
to
create
more
grid
in
the
City
of
Charlotte,
especially
outside
of
Center
City,
to
accommodate
vehicular
commuters.
L
So
the
city's
vision
for
development
in
University
City
along
this
corridors,
for
people
to
be
able
to
walk,
to
places
and
to
be
able
to
cross
the
street
to
get
to
destinations.
So
if
you
have
any
recommendations
or
ways
that
you
can
help
us
to
convince
NCDOT
that
our
big
roads
are
not
just
for
moving
cars,
that
our
streets
belong
to
people
too,
we
would
so
greatly
appreciate
that.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration
of
this
development
proposal
and
if
you
have
any
questions,
I'll
remain.
Z
Good
evening
my
name
is
evade.
Se
I
want
to
start
by
thanking
council
members
and
zoning
committee
members
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
against
a
rezoning
petition.
20

152
I
want
to
take
a
quick
poll,
real
quick
as
far
as
the
council
members,
how
many
of
you
have
recently
driven
through
that
area
in
the
last
three
months.
Z
I
have
visuals
in
the
PowerPoint,
which
I
hope
will
help
you
visualize
kind
of
the
magnitude
of
this
decision
and
really
the
impact
that
it
will
ultimately
have
on
three
Charlotte
neighborhoods
as
a
community.
We
would
also
like
to
extend
an
invitation
to
those
of
you
that
have
not
been
there
in
the
recent
time
to
come.
Z
Visit
walk
through
drive
through
the
area
so
that
way,
you're
able
to
see
as
far
as
what
will
be
impacted
when
you
vote
on
this
matter,
I'm
here
expressing
not
only
my
concerns,
but
also
the
concerns
of
my
neighbors,
some
of
whom
are
here
this
evening.
The
individuals
that
are
here
tonight
represent
the
majority
view
of
this
proposal
among
the
residents
of
crowd,
war,
trade
and
Shady
hills,
Crab,
Orchard
and
Shady
hills
are
the
two
communities
that
are
adjacent
to
this
piece
of
land
that
is
being
considered
for
redevelopment.
Z
I
do
want
to
do
a
quick
segue
to
let
you
know
that
our
rezoning
process
is
somewhat
similar
to
what
was
just
on
agenda
14,
so
just
so
you're
kind
of
taking
that
into
consideration.
In
this
brief
speech,
I
hope
to
illustrate
two
main
points
to
the
council.
I
hope
you
sincerely
consider
these
two
points
for
making
a
decision.
The
first
is
that
the
rezoning
petition
will
permanently
and
negatively
harm
our
to
establish
subdivisions.
Some
of
the
residents
of
these
communities
have
lived
in
their
homes
for
over
20
years.
Z
The
second
point
is
that
I
hope
to
illustrate
the
ripple
effect
of
this
decision,
essentially
on
college
towns,
autumn
wood,
as
well
as
in
Newell
neighborhoods.
Well,
the
proposal
puts
forward
density
that
the
six
existing
nor
future
planned
infant
structure
is
able
to
accommodate.
It
puts
the
west
Rocky
River
Road
project
beyond
capacity
before
it
is
even
completed
and
undercuts
the
progress
at
the
Northeast
Corridor
infrastructure
plan
over
to
create
in
our
area,
but
also
negates
the
level
of
density
that
the
City
Council
approved
under
the
2002
renewal
area
plan.
Z
Now.
The
first
point
is
the
impact
on
court,
red
and
Shady
hills.
This
zoning
will
essentially
replace
what
is
currently
allowed
to
be
79
single-family
homes
to
scale
up
to
405
housing
units.
The
developers
are
planning
three
roads
to
help
the
residents
of
the
proposed
405
units
come
in
and
out
of
these
homes,
so,
as
you
can
see
on
their
so
proposed,
Road
a
proposed
Roby
and
proposed
road
three
are
essentially
how
folks
are
going
to
be
entering
and
exiting
these
405
unit
rows.
Z
The
word
is
hope
to
get
public
right
on
right
away
on
Twitter
lane,
which
is
currently
a
private
road
by
a
report
that
was
provided
after
the
community
listening
session,
facilitated
by
university
city
partner.
The
traffic
frequency
in
these
two
subdivisions
will
increase
from
the
current
50
vehicle
trip
per
day
to
over
3000
per
day
once
the
project
is
complete.
Z
The
these
two
subdivisions
cannot
accommodate
the
traffic
of
this
magnitude
and
allowing
this
rezoning
to
go
through
without
addressing
the
real
issues
that
I
have
mentioned
would
cause
irrevocable
damage
to
these
two
small
and
established
communities
as
it
currently
stands.
School
buses
have
a
hard
time,
navigating
our
roads
when
cars
are
parked
overnight
on
Rockland
Drive,
and
that
is
in
Crab
Orchard.
If
a
vehicle
is
parked
on
the
street,
which
happens
on
a
daily
basis,
school
buses
and
emergency
vehicles
have
a
hard
time
getting
through.
With
the
current
50
vehicles
a
day.
Z
This
is
just
a
quick
image
which
is
actually
on
Twitter
lane,
I,
obviously
taking
a
first-person
view
when
I
was
taking
a
shot.
These
plans
for
moving
additional
residents
seem
short-sighted,
the
big
issue
being
connecting
proposed
street
B
to
Twitter
Lane,
which
currently,
as
it
stands,
when
one
vehicle
is
parked.
Z
Z
B
Z
Just
quickly
hit
on
this,
then
the
last
thing
I
want
to
share
with
you
is
basically
the
second
point
in
terms
of
how
college
towns,
autumn,
woods
and
Newell
neighborhoods
are
gonna,
be
impacted,
and
this
is
a
result
of
what
will
happen
to
West
Rocky
River
Road
project.
The
first
with
that
I
want
to
point
you
basically
and
I'll.
Just
kind
of
jump
to
this
I
want
to
point
you
to
number
two
and
number
four,
which
is
where
West
Rocky
River
Road.
Z
The
two
roads
that
are
proposed
are
basically
supposed
to
feed
into
this
area
as
it
currently
stands
is
already
a
backup
here
at
number
two,
which
is
leading
to
North
Tryon
and
so
does
happen
on
all
Concord
Road
as
well.
So
we
are
not
opposed
to
the
development.
What
we
are
insisting
is
basically
funding
for
completion
for
David
McKinney
Avenue
for
takes
place
before
this
project
is
able
to
move
forward,
and
then,
lastly,
we
urge
you
to
think
long
term
about
the
impact
that
this
will
have
on
West
Rocky
River
Road.
Thank
you.
O
My
name
is
Martin
Zimmerman
and
for
those
new
members
of
City
Council
I
am
the
former
director
of
facilities
planning
for
UNC
Charlotte
and
actually
have
been
involved
on
a
number
in
a
number
of
capacities
going
back
27
years
at
which
time
actually
represented
the
Chancellor
in
the
very
very
early
planning
of
light
rail.
It's
a
university
city
I'm
not
actually
opposed
to
this
project,
although
I
signed
up
in
opposition,
what
I'd
like
to
speak
to
very
briefly
is
what
is
the
flaw?
O
I'd
like
this,
to
mention
just
three
examples
where
I
think
this
process
has
been
flawed
and
it's
caused
a
lot
of
frustration,
obviously
to
members
of
the
audience
here
and
also
to
members
of
my
Citizens
Association
and
college
towns,
to
which
I
am
an
advisor
to
the
Board
of
Directors.
The
first
is
the
the.
O
What
I've
seen
in
the
past
is
some
developers
bring
these
drawings
site
plan
and
the
architectural
to
the
very
first
meeting,
the
second:
that's
not
what
happened
in
this
project
that
doesn't
happen
frequently.
The
second
point:
I'll
try
to
move
through
all
three
of
them
is
B
is
University
City
partners
who
do
a
marvelous
job
on
a
consistent
basis,
but
the
year-long
negotiation
that
occurred
occurred
outside
generally
outside
contact
with
the
community
at
large
certainly
didn't
occur
with
the
college
towns.
Community
and
third,
is
a
staff
analysis.
O
There
was
no
staff
analysis
posted
on
the
website
as
a
four
o'clock
this
afternoon,
so
instead
I
had
to
call
Keith
McBain
to
find
out
what's
going
on
in
the
project
and
what
their
communications
was
with
the
staff.
Those
are
three
simple
issues
that
relate
to
a
flawed
process
and
it
is
my
intention
to
continue
discussions
with
Mayor
Pro
Tem
I
sell
mr.
chihuahua
about
this
flawed
process
to
see.
If
there
are
ways
we
can
bring
this
into
into
the
kind
of
process
that
we
can
be
proud
of.
Y
Y
We
are
exploring
that
and
doing
that,
because,
when
we
met
with
the
residents
of
Crab
Orchard
and-and-and-and
the
residence
on
Carolyn,
there
were
concerns
about
traffic
on
those
residential
streets,
and
we
do
not
intend
our
traffic
to
have
to
use
these
streets.
That's
what
we
are
looking
to
extend
Dave
McCanney
to
West,
Rocky,
River,
Road
Carolyn
is
a
loop
road,
there's
really
no
other
outlet.
We
don't
see
any
reasons
why
the
residents
of
the
community
would
need
to
enter
carolyn
lane
unless
or
visiting
a
neighbor.
We
are
reconfiguring
this
intersection
here.
Y
There
will
be
left
turn
lane
right
turn
lane
we're
hoping
for
a
signal,
but
if
a
signal
cannot
be
approved
by
NCDOT,
there
will
be
a
directional
crossover
here,
as
well
as
a
directional
crossover
here
with
appropriate,
left
and
right
turn
lanes.
So
we
do.
We
are
improving
and
we
are
adding
Lane
age
to
this
part
of
Dave
McCanney
and
to
Carolyn
to
make
sure
there's
sufficient
a
comma
or
width
in
lanes
and
roadway
to
accommodate
the
traffic
from
the
development
and
from
the
from
the
neighborhood
here
and
then
in
terms
of
again
I.
Y
Think
that
covers
most
of
the
points
we
are
building
the
network
to
address
the
issues
of
a
traffic
impact
on
the
Jason
neighborhoods.
We
also
one
of
the
things
we
did
through
this
process
was
reconfigure
how
Brook,
Nicole
and
Twitter
Lane
come
together.
We
originally
had
this
as
a
straight
connection
through
the
site.
We
reconfigured
this
so
that
there's
more
turns
making
this
a
less
convenient
opportunity
for
people
to
cut
through.
There
is
public
right-of-way
here
on
Twitter
we
have
an
easement
as
well,
so
we
believe
we
can
also.
B
H
Have
a
question
for
mr.
McBain,
with
some
of
the
slides
I
just
noticed
that
site
plan
that
you
have
up
there.
Some
of
these
are
yeah
a
few
of
these
slides
of
renderings.
It
notes
that
it
says
not
part
of
the
petition
I
mean
is:
is
this
just
something
that
takes
to
get
our
idea
like?
How
committed
are
we
to
to
this
actual
stuff
on
these
slides?
So.
Y
This
site
plan,
we
don't
have
an
illustrative
site
plan
like
this
in
the
petition,
but
this
site
plan
does
implement
the
conditions
of
the
conditional
planning
of
the
conditional
plan.
The
conditional
plan
limits
the
apartment
community
to
this
portion
of
the
site,
limits
it
to
no
more
than
340
units,
and
it
has
they.
The
buildings,
as
illustrated
here,
have
to
be
oriented
toward
Dave,
McKenney
or
Carolyn.
It
cannot
move
closer
to
the
neighborhood
than
the
buffer
and
the
setbacks
were
showing
here
also
for
the
townhomes.
Y
Y
It
requires
the
townhomes
to
front
the
streets
with
parking
and
access
to
the
rear
so,
and
it
also
in
input,
shows
where
the
storm,
water,
detention
and
open
space
areas
would
be
that
are
also
committed
to
on
the
on
the
conditional
plan
in
a
more
general
term.
This
is
one
possible
site
plan.
It
would,
there
could
be
more
townhomes
or
less
townhomes.
It
could
be
slightly
different
configuration
to
these
buildings,
but
they
would
need
to
be
oriented,
as
you
see
them
here,
about.
Y
And
then
these
are
to
give
the
council
and
I
the
council
in
the
community
an
idea
of
what
the
architectural
commitments
are
that
would
or
part
of
the
plan.
There
are
design
guidelines
and
architectural
commitments
that
are
in
notes
on
the
conditional
plan.
This
is
how
those
notes
would
translate
to
a
proposed
building.
B
B
E
Z
Thank
you
for
asking
that
question.
Really.
The
big
piece
is
just
to
kind
of
look
at
the
bigger
piece,
so
obviously
connectivity
is
an
issue,
but
the
three
roads
that
are
proposed
in
this
development,
so
Road
a
B
and
C
all
are
feeding
into
these
small
neighborhood
roads
which
are
not
designed
to
really,
as
you
can
see,
Brook
Nicole
Lane,
so
these
roads
here
both
of
this
main
road,
also
feeds
into
essentially
what
will
become
Twitter
Lane.
This
road
is
currently
not
funded.
Z
Z
Like
I
said,
our
roads
are
not
designed
that
where,
if
a
car
is
parked
which
happens
on
a
daily
basis,
even
the
school
bus
cannot
get
through
so
increasing
the
volume
of
vehicles
that
go
through
we're
worried
and
like
the
gentleman
mentioned
earlier,
it
sounds
like
this
plan
has
been
going
on
for
about
a
year,
but
our
residents
are
just
now
learning
about
it.
As
of
November
December,
we
were
the
community
hearing
where
one
of
the
statements
that
we
were
told
was
obviously
it
costs
money
to
send
out
mailers.
Z
We
really
have
to
be
honest
and
say
that
all
of
this
traffic
is
going
to
go
on
to
West
Rocky
River
Road,
so
it
does
not
only
impact
our
two
neighborhoods,
but
really
the
college
towns,
autumn
wood
and
new
old
residents,
which
ultimately,
anyone
that
wants
to
leave
that
apartment,
complex
and
get
on
old,
Concorde
Road
will
be
cutting
through
Rockland
Drive,
because
that
is
the
most
likely
way
to
be
able
to
get
down
here.
So
you'll
come
through
the
neighborhood
you'll
come
down
here.
Z
Z
You
can
carve
that
road
up
or
that
Street
up
in
any
different
ways
that
you
want,
but
it
just
could
not
handle
that
density,
and
so
that
is
our
biggest
concern
is
that
we
don't
just
make
the
decision
saying
here's
a
new
development
we're
about
to
have
400
units
take
place.
But
what
we're
really
saying
is
this
northeastern
corridor
plan?
Z
J
P
Dave,
beginning
is
a
city.
Woody
would
be
a
city
maintained
road.
There
is
a
four
day:
mckinney
extension,
it's
a
two-face
part
we're
still
in
seventy
percent
design
on
a
segment
we're
still
seven
percent
design
on
a
portion
of
Dave
McKinney
Road.
We
were
working
with
the
petitioner
that
they
didn't
come
up
with,
though
additional
design
up
to
their
property
line
so
that
they
construct
all
of
de
McKinney
extension
as
part
of
their
development,
so
that
all
the
road
would
happen
whenever
their
development
happened.
J
M
They
usually
get
posted
Friday
and
it
looks
like
just
scrubbed
on
the
website
real
quick.
This
is
for
some
reason
the
only
petition
where
that
didn't
occur,
so
I
just
need
to
check
in
and
was
there
some
other
oversight
as
to
why
that
happened,
but
certainly
that's
something.
We'd
get
posted
at
the
latest
Friday
before
the
hearing,
but
again,
looking
at
all
the
other
petitions.
This,
for
some
reason,
seems
to
be
the
only
one
that
that
didn't
occur
on.
M
We
did
have
some
late
meetings
on
this
petition
as
late
as
Thursday
morning,
Thursday
after
getting
into
almost
a
lunchtime
from
it
wasn't
even
Friday
on
this
one.
So
we
were
still
working
through
some
transportation
items,
so
it
may
have
just
gotten
kind
of
lost
in
that
final
push
to
get
everything
together,
but
again
that's
something
that
we
certainly
need
to
do
a
better
job
of
making
sure
that's
posted
on
there,
but
typically
they're
getting
Friday
before
at
the
latest
and.
J
Y
Had
a
we
didn't
have
that
specific
plan?
The
plan
we
presented
at
the
community
had
a
different
road
configuration
where
these
roads
were
straight
did
not
have
as
much
detail
on
the
townhome
community
development
as
I
was
still
underway.
We
did
show
the
road
network
and
the
connections
we
had
examples
of
buildings
that
spectrum
companies
had
built
architectural
EES,
architectural
styles.
That
would
be
similar
to
the
drawings
you
are
seeing
tonight.
So
we
did
have
provide
some
of
that
information.
It
did
evolve
over
time.
Y
The
proposed
plan
we're
presenting
tonight
based
on
input
both
from
the
community
and
from
the
city
and
Department
of
Transportation.
So
there
was
some
information
slightly
different
in
terms
of
notice.
I
thought
there
was
a
question
about
notice
asked
we
did
hold
a
small
meeting
with
a
smaller
group
of
residents.
Initially
it
wasn't
a
lack
of
wanting
to
send
out
more
notices.
Y
J
C
J
C
M
Statutory
notice
is
all
adjacent
property
owners
that
are
adjacent
to
the
boundary
of
the
rezoning.
We
go
beyond
that
by
providing
that
statutory
requirement
plus
three
hundred
feet
within
the
300
foot
radius
of
the
property,
and
then
we
take
an
extra
step
and
notify
any
registered
HOAs
or
community
organizations
within
a
mile
of
the
site.
M
J
C
B
I
P
Excuse
me
first
Twitter
Lane.
Actually,
when
this
large
sub-element
came
into
play
years
ago,
there
was
always
the
intent
for
that
road
to
be
connected
as
part
of
a
second
face
of
the
large.
This
large
development
right
here.
So
with
this
development,
that's
being
proposed
they're
actually
going
to
go
ahead
and
make
the
connection
to
Twitter
lane
right
now,
rather
than
we're
waiting
for
the
phase
two
of
the
development
to
occur.
As
far
as
Brook
Neal
plays
they're
different,
going
to
make
a
connection
to
that
I
think
you
know.
I
Can
you
back
up
to
the
slide
where
he
took
a
picture
of
the
from
the
car?
My
question
was
about
the
impact,
not
the
plan,
so
there
was
an
it
might
have
been
in
his
in
another
step,
okay,
so
the
question:
what
they
were
saying
is
the
concern
that
one
about
how
narrow
the
road
is,
the
concerns
with
school
buses
getting
or
emergency
vehicles
if
we're,
including
increasing
the
impact
from
50
cars
or
50
trips
to
3,000.
I
P
There's
so
there's
gonna
be
the
there
certainly
have
the
connection
to
Carolyn
and
then,
with
this
development
and
working
with
the
city
and
working
with
the
reimbursement
agreement,
then
they
would
build
and
Dave
McKean
II.
Extensions
of
that
would
also
provide
another
way
for
folks
to
be
able
to
exit
development.
They
can
use
Carolyn
right
lane
which
can
get
you
a
49
with
the
connection
to
Twitter
lane.
That
could
also
give
them
another
option
to
be
able
to
do
that.
P
Y
B
Y
I'm
a
mare
I
can
also
add
for
that.
If
you
choose
Felix's
right,
a
portion
of
Twitter
Lane
is
a
private
street.
It's
built,
it's
meant
to
be
built
to
look
like
a
public
street.
The
portion
of
Twitter
lane
that
we
will
be
connecting
to
is
actually
will
be
a
public
street
sanctuary
and
then
Twitter
toward
our
site
is
actually
was
shown
on
the
previous
approved
plan
as
a
public
street
and
will
continue
to
be
a
public
street
and
we
were
connecting
a
public
street
to
that
beyond
sanctuary
it
converts
to
a
private
street.
Okay.
B
The
next
item
on
our
agenda
is
24:
it
is
20

by
present
Midwood
Charlotte
LP
for
approximately
two
tenths
of
an
egg
from
the
south
side
of
Central

The
current
zoning
is
general

pedestrian

the
proposed
zoning
is
general
business
production.

optional

recommends
approval
regarding
and
as
long
as
they
have
a
resolve
outstanding
issues,
and
this
we
have
three
speakers,
speaking
in
favor
of
so
we'll
have
a
staff
presentation
in
three
minutes
for
mr.

150
5.18
acres
on
the
south
side
of
Central,
Avenue,
just
east
of
pecan
and
west
of
Thomas

ice
we're
back
in
the
Central
Avenue
corridor.
With
this
petition,
it
is
a
currently
b2
zoning,
with
a
ped
overlay
on
on
that
we're
looking
at
a
b2
pet
with
some
optional
provisions.
This
is
under
the
plaza
central
pet
scape
plan,
which
does
recommend
retail
mix
juice
for
retail
office
multi-family
residential
uses.
M
It's
part
of
the
village
center
district
and
the
two
block
sections
of
Central
Ave
is
really
the
heart
of
this
district
and
preservations
of
his
historic
character
as
a
priority.
The
village
retail
area
is
the
larger
area
east
of
the
CSX
railroad
tracks,
including
that
bill
sentimental
potentially
be
a
highly
walkable
compact

mixed-use
retail
village.
This
proposals
for
a
non
residential
use
permitted
by
Wright
and
under
prescribed
conditions
in
b2
ped.
M
It's
really
allowing
to
up
to
sixty
eight
hundred
and
fifty
square
feet
gross
floor
area
which
is
equal
to
about
the
existing
square
foot,
building
with
some
additional
about
258
square
feet
and
added
onto
it,
there'll
be
a
new
rear.
Entryway

non

such
as
a
welcome
cooler
preserve
the
building
with
the
ability
to
make
present
renovations
as
part
of
this
proposal
as
well,
then,
the
optional
request
really
allow
for
that
be
to
bed
without
parking,
an
exemption
from
streetscape
improvements
along
Central
Avenue
and
we're
looking
at
a
petition.
M
That's
using
an
existing
building
existing
streetscape
existing
conditions
and
really
just
want
to
go
through
that
adaptive
reuse
component
of
it
to
get
some
different
outcomes
for
the
building
staff
does
recommend
approval
of
the
petition
upon
resolution.
Some
outstanding
issues
related
to
same
building
design,
some
technical
revisions.
It
is
consistent
with
the
plaza
central
pet
scape
plan,
which
recommends
retail
mix
use
and
against
staff,
does
recommend
approval
we'll
be
happy
to
take
questions
following
the
petitioners
presentation.
B
Y
Evening,
mayor
Mayor,
Pro,
Tem
members
of
council,
Mazzone
and
committee
Keith
nickname
was
more
of
an
Allen
assisting
Central
Avenue
Plaza
Midwood
petitioner,
with
this
petition.
2019
155,
as
Dave
has
mentioned
a
small
site
located
on
the
Main
Street
of
Central
Avenue
building.
The
talk
that
occupies
95
percent
of
the
site
has
historically
been.
Y
That
way
has
never
really
had
parking
since
originally
constructed
as
a
retail
as
a
retail
building
commercial
building,
I'm,
not
sure
of
the
exact
age
of
the
building,
but
is
one
of
the
older
historic
buildings
along
central
and
again,
the
request
is
to
allow
that
building
to
continue
to
be
reused
and
adaptively
reused
with
both
retail
and
restaurant
uses.
We
have
been
working
with
the
Plaza
Midwood
Merchants
Association,
as
well
as
a
Osmund
with
neighborhood
ization,
as
well
as
the
commonwealth
morning
outside
Neighborhood
Association.
Y
They
have
asked
us
for
two
additional
conditions
to
this
petition,
one
that
we
limit
the
amount
of
area
of
the
existing
building
that
can
be
used
for
type
2,
eating
drinking
and
entertainment
establishments,
and
we
have
agreed
to
do
that.
It's
limited
to
5,300
square
feet.
The
remaining
amount
of
the
allowed
square
footage
would
be
other
uses
allowed
other
than
the
type
ii
ii
ii
ii
ii
and
that
other
those
other
uses
would
need
to
also
have
frontage
on
Central
Avenue.
So
those
are
two
additional
conditions
that
they've
requested.
Y
We
are
also
working
and
we
have
committed
and
the
conditional
plan
to
improve
the
alley
in
the
rear,
with
additional
lighting
and
pavement
to
help
improve
that
access
in
the
back.
There
is
a
city
parking
lot
adjacent
property
here
we
are
also
going
to
work
with
the
Merchants
Association
to
help
partially
fund
improvements
to
the
remainder
of
the
alley.
That
will
be
something
that
will
be
done
through
the
Merchants
Association
and
by
the
petitioner.
This
is
the
existing
two
retail
storefronts.
As
they
look
today
on
center
on
Central
Avenue,
they
would
be
maintained.
Y
There
would
be
some
referred
refurbishment
some
renovations
up
to
that
frontage.
This
is
one
potential
look
for
that.
This
is
not
necessarily
what
it
ultimately
look.
Look
look
like,
but
again
you
windows,
new
new
new
detail
to
the
existing
materials
to
make
it
again,
look
look
like
it
did
the
first
day
it
was
built
I'll,
be
glad
to
answer
any
questions.
F
Just
want
to
say
they
have
been
working
closely
with
the
plasmid
wood
merchants.
I
expect
before
the
decision
next
month,
we'll
have
a
formal
letter
of
support
from
them.
The
improvements
on
the
alleyway
are
a
big
win
for
the
neighborhood,
both
from
aesthetic
perspective
and
from
a
safety
perspective
with
improved
lighting.
A
lot
of
people
use
that
to
cut
through
from
bar
to
bar
restaurants,
restaurant
and-
and
this
is
right
in
the
middle
of
one
side
of
the
block
of
central
between
pecan
and
Thomas.
That
I
would
argue,
is
the
single
most
defining
feature.
F
That
block
is
the
single
most
defining
feature
of
Plaza
his
business
district
and
by
locking
this
in
as
an
adaptive,
reuse
project
and
having
an
investment
made.
There
I
think
we
assure
the
long-term
preservation
of
that
block,
without
which
I
don't
think
positive.
It's
positive
it
anymore.
So
if
anybody
else
to
know
any
questions
out,
mr.
Winston
does
but.
H
Know
we
can
tie
this
in,
but
I
really
do
think.
We
need
to
look
at
those
handful
of
parking
spots
that
aren't
street
parking
that
is
allowed
on
Central
Avenue
at
certain
times.
I,
don't
know
how
if
we
can
tie
it
in,
but
if
we
can
I,
don't
know
why
it's
there.
It
creates
some
significant
traffic
situations
and
it
really
stands
out
again.
If
this
is
eating
drinking
establishment,
we
want
people
to
walk
there
being
that
as
a
neighborhood
or
or
take.
B
F
A
they
are
very
polarizing,
a
lot
of
them.
Midwood
Merchants
Association
has
long
said
they
want
to
keep
them
both
for
the
parking
that
it
provides,
which
is
minimal,
but
also
for
I.
Think
the
comfort
level
of
people
walking
there,
the
sidewalks
they're
not
very
deep.
They
do
provide
some
safety
from
traveling
for
people
walking
on
that
side
of
central.
F
This
petition
and
I
wouldn't
want
to
hold
this
petition
to
any
expectation
on
those
spots,
but
I
do
think
it's
worth
the
conversation
and
also
we
have
to
consider
to
that.
Obviously,
the
Gold
Line
Phase
three.
If
we
go
down
that
path
will
be
going
down.
Central
Avenue
here
so
we'd
have
to
take
that
in
consideration
before
we
made
any
other
decisions
of
an
impact.

the
adopted
future
land
use
as
part
of

Hux
area
plan,
which
is
from
2015.
It
does
recommend
single-family
uses
up
to
four
dwelling
units
per
acre,
we'll
get
into
some
nuances
in
that
plan.
That
would
accommodate
some
additional
density,
as
suggested
by
this
rezoning
and
provide
some
appropriateness
for
it
in
the
language
of
the
plan
itself.
M
The
proposal
overall
is
468
dwelling
units,
so
we're
looking
at
eight
dwelling
units
per
acre,
we're
looking
at
single-family

then
maximum

strip
and
six-foot
sidewalk
along
the
public
frontage
of
the

as
well
as
some
internal

That
would
provide
future
stub
for
potential
connectivity.

we

the

As
we
mentioned
it,

denser
than
what
the

Oaks

plan
doesn't
recommend.
M
However,
the
adopted

suggested
some
small
clusters
of
slightly
higher

could
be
appropriate
at
strategic
locations
such
as
along
the
edge
of
open
space,
this
site,
in
particular
buts,
the
tradition,
golf
club
and
some
other
dedicated
open
spaces,
and
that
can
serve
as
a
good
buffer
between
this
site
and
the
surrounding
slightly
lower
density
sites.
So
part
of
that
language
in
that
plan
does
suggest
that
the
eight
dwelling
units
per
acre
is
not
too
far
off
what
the
plan
envisioned
given
that
open
space
nearby.
M
So
just
to
kind
of
go
back
and
look
at
that,
you
can
see.
We've
got
parking
open
space
here
park,
an
open
space
in
this
general
area.
So
for
that
language,
in
the
plan
we
fill
the
eight
dwelling
units
breakers,
is
consistent
and
would
be
a
good
transition
off
of
this
road.
So
we
do
recommend
approval
and
we'll
be
happy
to
take
questions
following
presentations
this
evening.
U
Evening,
madam
mayor
members
of
City
Council
ensign
committee,
I'm
John
Carmack,
we're
here
on
behalf
of
the
petitioner
Frank
McMahon
with
land
designs
here
as
well,
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
of
your
questions.
Dave
did
a
very
good
job
going
over
the
proposal.
So
I'll
be
very
brief.
Once
again,
it's
about
eight
and
a
half
acres,
south
side
of
Polk
and
white
road,
just
west
of
intersection
of
Mallard,
Creek,
Road
and
polka
white
road
you've
got
the
tradition,
golf
course
to
the
south
and
Mountain
Creek
Park
to
the
north,
and
this
is
the
site.
U
This
is
an
aerial
of
the
site
that
shows
the
park
in
the
golf
course
as
well.
The
proposal
will
excuse
me
into
the
sites
currently
zoned
r4.
The
parcels
to
the
north
and
east
are
also
zoned
r4.
The
golf
courses
of
zone
r3
to
the
west
you've
got
multiple
zoning
districts,
r8
CDR,
six
CDR,
five
CD
and
r4
CD,
which
is
an
unusual
configuration
for
districts.
But
that's
what
exists
to
the
west
of
the
site.
The
proposal
is
to
allow
a
maximum
of
68
drawing
use
to
be
constructed
on
site.
U
The
joints
can
only
be
comprised
of
single-family
detached
dwelling
units
or
single-family
attached,
town
I'm
drilling
units
or
a
combination
thereof.
We
would
be
doing
streetscape
improvements.
Excuse
me,
the
developer
would
be
doing
streetscape
improvements
along
Polk
and
white
Road
installing
new
streetlights.
There
would
be
a
street
connection
from
Polk
and
white
road
into
the
site.
It
would
stub
along
the
Western
property
line.
There
are
architectural
standards,
including
no
vinyl,
siding
would
be
allowed
and
we're
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have.
U
We
you
were
at
our
community
meeting
if
you
recall,
really
none
other
than
the
community
meeting.
What,
after
the
community
meeting
I
sent
our
PowerPoint
presentation
to
those
individuals
that
attended
the
community
meeting
I
never
got
a
response
as
to
acknowledging
their
receipt
or
any
questions
or
concerns,
so
it
would
be.
I
really
couldn't
represent
to
you
what
their
thoughts
are,
but
we
at
the
community
meeting
it
was
not
well
attended,
as
you
know,
and
we
did
reach
out
after
the
community
meeting
to
those
folks
and
sent
them
the
PowerPoint
presentation.
G
Pro
Tem,
thank
you,
madam
mayor
and
I,
always
struggle
and
I
say
it
when
we
take
a
fairly
recent
area
plan
like
prosperity,
Hawks,
which
is
2015
and
then
go
against
it,
which
would
change
it
then,
and
in
this
case,
we'd
be
going
from
the
recommended
four
dwellings
per
unit
per
acre
to
8,
so
we're
doubling
it
and
the
justification
being
that
it's
a
long
open
space,
which
is
tradition,
golf
club
that
Golf
Club
is
in
bankruptcy.
It's
the
land
is
owned
by
the
county,
I
believe.
G
M
I
think
we
slide
that
we
have
up
here
in
the
Mallard
Creek
Park
is
another
one,
that's
close
by
and
I
think
that
was
another
part
of
that
area.
Plan
that
didn't
just
talk
about
it
being
just
adjacent
to,
but
in
proximity
to
and
I
think
that's
part
of
when
staff
reviewed
it
they
caught
out
the
traditional
golf
club
because
it
is
adjacent
but
I,
think
the
you
know,
area
plan
does
suggest
that
strategic
locations
along
the
edges
of
open
space
could
be.
You
know
justified
for
an
increase
in
some
of
that
density.
M
So
I
think
we
looked
at
both
areas
being
you
know,
adjacent
to
the
golf
course,
but
also
in
close
proximity
that
Mallard
Creek
Park.
Those
were
two
that
we
felt
gave
us
a
little
bit
more
comfort
with
an
increase
between
that
four
to
eight
and
the
home
type
as
well
that
we're
looking
at
single-family
attached
and
detached
and
not
apartments.
We
felt
it
still
was
somewhat
compatible
with
some
of
the
development
you
see
along
Polk
and
white
road
and
then
back
along
Mallard
Creek
so,
but
certainly
understand.
Okay,.
G
H
To
that
and
I
read,
I
did
go
through
this
and
it
is
a
bit
confusing
because
in
one
sense
you
do
say.
Obviously
you
say
that
it's
inconsistent,
but
then
you
say
that
the
plain
and
does
call
for
increased
density,
so
this
could
be
seen
as
following
the
plan.
So
it's
kind
of
you
kind
of
step
on
both
sides
of
the
line
there.
I
read
it
as
that
it
was
not
I,
read
it
as
being
consistent
with
the
plan
because
they
call
for
these
anomalies
I,
guess
that
would
be
no
consistent.
So
what
is
it.
M
I
think
when
you
look
at
it
from
a
base
recommendation,
it's
inconsistent,
but
from
the
nuances
that
it
calls
out
other
aspects
of
the
plan
that
where
you
can
look
at
increased
density,
then
there
is
some
general
consistency
with
it.
But
if
you
look
at
it
just
on
its
base
recommendation,
then
if
that's
where
we
make
that
real
policy
standpoint
from,
is
that
underlying
recommendation
and
those
nuances
help
to
provide
some
of
that
support.
M
If
we
look
at
it
from
the
standpoint
that
we
did
and
I
think
that's,
so
we
just
caught
out
the
base
policy
recommendation
of
for
dua
and
then
in
the
rationale
where
we
justify
what
our
point
of
view
is
on
it.
That's
where
we
pulled
in
some
of
the
other
nuances
of
the
plan
that
help
provide
some
of
that
support
from
the
rationale
standpoint,
so
I
would.
H
Like
to
see
between
now
and
next
month,
what
what
a
hypothetical
situation
would
look
like
where
you
would
get
that
increase
in
density,
that
potential
multifamily
space
so
that
it
would
meet
the
definition
of
this
plan.
So
I
can
understand
you
know,
as
the
Mayor
Pro
Tem
said,
you
know,
when
do
we
consider
you
know
it
getting
into
that
nuance
of
the
plan?
Yes,
I.
B
Didn't
say
that
it's
not
said
in
the
plan
I
said
when
we
adopt
the
plan,
we
generally
don't
get
those
nuances
what
they
are
and
what
they
would
be
like
and
how
they
are
defined.
Reliance
is
a
very
broad
term,
so
I
just
I
just
feel
like
at
some
point
when
council
is
given
a
document,
and
it's
not
really
quite
clear
what
the
word
means:
I
just
wonder
how
it
evolves
and
I
think
that's
what
mr.
Winston
is
asking:
how
does
it
evolve
so
I?
That's
an
interesting
concept.
B
D
D
I
generally
agree
with
the
concept
of
needing
to
have
a
good
reason
in
order
to
set
aside
a
plan.
The
thing
that
I'm
wondering,
though,
is
in
five
years
since
we
adopted
that
plan
has
the
housing
landscape
changed
and
what
is
actually
the
shelf
life
we
planned
and
the
fact
is
we're
seeing
a
lot
of
development,
that's
being
called.
You
are
too,
and
I've
got
a
really
difficult
one
in
my
district
right
now,
and
it's
being
done
that
way,
because
what
the
market
is
looking
for
is
smaller,
Lots
and
lower
overhead.
D
So
it's
a
challenge
to
kind
of
be
a
little
dynamic
and
responsive
to
the
market
and
whether
I
think
the
open
space
argument
is
probably
not
a
valid
reason.
But
it's
I'm
just
pointing
out
the
difficulty
of
not
being
rigid
with
our
plan
and
ignoring
market
dynamics
could
be.
This
is
appropriate
in
my
life,
okay,.
B
Okay,
the
next
item
on
our
agenda
is
26
2019
158
by
m/v
MPV
properties
for
approximately
three
and
a
half
acres
located
on
the
south
side
of
East
Woodlawn,
and
the
current
zoning
is
single-family.
Residential
and
urban
residential
conditional
proposes
urban
residential
conditional
and
urban
residential
conditional
with
the
site
plan
on
them
and
staff
recommends
approval
of
product
resolution
of
outstanding
issues,
and
we
mr.
Brown,
to
speak
with
us
and
mr
patanè
de
présentation
2019.
M
158
three
and
a
half
acres
on
the
south
side
of
eastwood
lon,
just
east
of
Murray
Hill
Road.
The
site
is
currently
zoned
r4
and
you
are
to,
with
the
previously
approved
conditional
plan.
That's
that
portion
that
you
can
see
kind
of
split
in
this
orange
area.
Here
we're
looking
at
a
you
are
to
for
the
entirety
of
the
site.
The
previous
conditional
plan
was
a
little
bit
smaller
in
size.
The
Woodlawn
Station
area
plan,
which
was
2008,
does
recommend
residential
land
use
up
to
22
dwelling
units
per
acre
for
the
majority
of
the
site.
M
You
can
see,
there's
still
a
slight
portion
of
the
site
that
wasn't
part
of
that
previous
rezoning.
That
is
only
recommended
for
that
four
dwelling
units
per
acre.
So
again,
we've
got
a
pre-existing
conditional
plan.
We've
got
to
split
land,
use
recommendation
for
a
little
bit
of
the
site,
so
we've
got
22
greater
than
22
and
then
excuse
me
up
to
and
then
just
for
dua
for
another
portion.
So
this
proposal,
overalls
for
37
single-family
attached
units
at
10.1,
four
units
per
acre,
we're
looking
at
three
storeys
in
height,
not
to
exceed
45
feet.
M
The
previously
approved
plan,
as
you
can
see,
I
think
we
included
that
in
your
packets
was
a
little
bit
of
a
different
design.
In
this
standpoint,
from
an
architecture
and
layout
form,
it
was
a
little
bit
less
clustered
than
the
previous.
Where
that
plan
that
we're
looking
at
this
evening,
this
plan
does
provide
a
little
bit
more
tree,
save
and
open
space
in
the
back.
The
previous
plan
brought
the
units
all
the
way
down.
M
This
one
does
stop
those
units
here
and
and
provide
some
of
that
tree
save
area
on
the
backside,
so
how
we
thought
it
was
a
little
bit
of
a
better
design
than
what
we
had
previously
for
this
site.
Staff
does
recommend
approval
the
petition
upon
resolution
of
some
outstanding
issues.
It
is
consistent
with
the
Woodlawn
stationary
plan
for
that
portion.
M
B
V
Mayor
councilmembers,
Collin
Brown
behalf
of
Mayor
Phil,
Patrick,
Vermillion,
Bailey
Patrick,
is
here
with
me
as
well
mr.
Driggs
teed
this
up
well
for
us
in
pointing
out
that
he's
seeing
more
and
more
of
these,
you
are
twos,
we
are
seeing.
You
know,
demand
for
townhome
housing
in
desirable
areas.
This
is
one
of
them.
Dave
had
a
good
presentation,
so
just
one.
This
is
three
and
a
half
acres
here,
there's
Woodlawn.
V
This
is
right
across
from
the
Sam
smart
as
you're
getting
down
towards
South
Boulevard
and
just
want
to
reiterate
what
Dave
said:
the
majority
to
site
two
and
a
half
acres
is
already
zoned.
You
are
to
CD.
This
is,
it
is
approved,
420
townhomes
already,
and
so
with
that
left
you
with
is
this
kind
of
these
two
sliver
parcels
here
between
what
could
be
a
townhome
development
in
the
single-family
neighborhood,
and
so
what
npv
did
was
assemble
that
so
then
now
they
have
it
all.
V
Now
that
you
have
it
together,
you
can
do
a
little
bit
better
job
on
the
site
plan,
I.
Think
as
Dave
mentioned.
If
the
area
plan
calls
for
20
up
to
22
for
this
portion
of
the
site,
we're
at
ten
so
I
think
that
is
we're,
certainly
not
maxing
out
what
the
plan
calls
for.
We
are
over
the
four
but
I
think
we've
met
in
the
middle,
the
pros
redevelopment
actually
like
Dave,
Dave's,
color
version
better,
but
we've
done
he
mentioned
the
buffer
all
around
the
side
of
the
property.
V
This
is
a
reorientation
from
our
first
site
plan,
we've
clustered
the
homes
in
the
middle,
and
then
we
have
a
street
going
around
a
drive
around
to
give
more
buffer
from
the
neighbors.
We've
had
two
good
community
meetings.
Our
team
was
out
there
on
Friday
afternoon
meeting
with
a
couple
neighboring
property
owners
to
talk,
buffering
and
separation
from
their
properties.
So
I
think
we've
made
good
progress.
These
are
some
conceptual
renderings
we've
shared
with
the
neighbors.
V
These
are
not
sending
commitment
yet,
but
we
did
want
to
show
them
the
type
of
development
that
could
be
going
in
there
generally
I
think
we've
gotten
a
good
response
from
the
neighborhood
I'm,
not
saying
anybody's.
You
know
clapping
or
cheering,
but
I
think
there
was
an
expectation
the
site
would
be
developed.
Existing
zoning
allows
it
I
think
they
appreciate
what
the
team
has
done
to
accommodate
some
of
their
concerns.
B
V
B
M
159
we've
got
a
mud
CD
currently
on
the
property
on
Dacians
crossing
road,
we're
looking
at
proposed
zoning
of
Tod
TR.
We
just
went
through
a
rezoning
back
here
on
verbena
street
for
a
large
land
holding
in
this
general
area
for
Tod
as
well.
So
this
would
continue
that
up
to
nations
crossing
and
bring
that
Tod
zoning
a
little
bit
forward.
We
do
have
a
land
use
recommendation
currently
for
mixed-use
retail
office
residential
that
was
part
of
a
rezoning
petition
back
in
2017
for
that
mud
district.
M
That
would
be
still
consistent
with
Tod
in
terms
of
uses
and
outcomes
from
that
potential
land
use
plan
adoption
from
2008.
As
we
said,
we've
got
newly
adopted
two
he's
owned
him
back
here
around
verbena
street,
so
this
would
just
comprise
some
continuity
and
continue
that
forward
staff
does
recommend
approval.
Q
Okay,
good
good
evening,
madam
mayor
City,
Council
and
Planning
Commission
members,
my
name
is
Tom
West
I'm
with
West
engineering
and
we're
located
at
224,
westinghouse
Boulevard
in
Charlotte
I'm
here
tonight
representing
the
owner.
That's
the
properties
LLC
on
this
rezoning
petition.
Mr.
Jepson
and
his
family
have
owned
the
property
since
1992.
Q
Existing
buildings
are
currently
empty
in
need
of
renovation.
The
existing
building
architecture
is
that
of
the
1940s
post-war
industrial
era,
with
its
iconic
barrel
roof.
Mr.
Zeb
says
vision
of
the
property
is
to
revitalize
and
repurpose
the
existing
buildings,
while
preserving
their
character,
as
well
as
the
character
of
the
surrounding
neighborhood
and
I
am
here.
They
answer
any
questions
that
you
might
have.
B
Hey
the
next
item
is
petition
number
20
1961
by
Crescent
communities,
approximately
two
and
a
half
acres
bounded
by
South
Tryon
West
Hill
I'm,
the
tenth
District
one.
The
current
zoning
is
uptown
mixed-use
optional.
The
proposed
is

makes

with
the

The

recommends
approval
with
the

about

we
have.

two
point:
four
acres:
South
Tryon
East
Hill
Street
used
to
the
John
Belk
freeway.
That's
currently,
building
that's
under
construction
zone.
Do
you
mud
optional?
This
would
be
you
mud
optional,
with
the
site
plan
amendment.
The
crux
of
the
request:
really.
This
is
under
the
sentence:
Charlotte
Center,
City,
2020
vision
plan,
which
doesn't
make
specific
land-use
recommendations.
However,
none
of
the
plan
encourages
future
development
that
will
contribute
to
the
overall
viability
and
livability
at
Center
City.
M
This
petition
is
not
necessarily
related
to
the
actual
development
of
the
site,
but
the
outcome
of
the
development
in
regards
to
signage
so
we're
preserving
all
the
previous
optional
requests
and
design
details
from
petitions
in
2014
and
2017
respectively.
What
we're
prepared
or
what
the
petitioners
excuse
me
is
that
the
following
optional
provision
would
be
applicable
or
applied
to
this
site
as
a
site
plan
amendment,
and
that
would
be
to
increase
the
previously
approved
attached
electronic
signs,
which
are
either
video
or
LED
from
a
maximum
size
of
300
square
feet
to
450
square
feet
each.
M
So
it's
an
increase
in
sign,
sign
allotment
for
the
building
and
staff,
does
recommend
approval
of
this
petition,
and
we
do
have
one
outstanding
technical
item
that
we
need
them
to
clean
up.
Nothing
significant
that
would
change
the
outcome
of
the
request
or
sign
of
request
that
they're
looking
for
again
we're
maintaining
all
the
other
development
approvals
and
optional
provisions
from
those
two
periods.
Petitions.
This
would
just
be
a
change
in
the
signs
square,
footage
from
300
to
450
square
feet
and
again,
staff
does
recommend
approval
and
we'll
be
happy
to
take
any
questions.
V
Mayor
councilmembers,
Colin
Brown
on
behalf
of
Crescent,
the
list
of
the
millon
Elizabeth
McMillan
is
here
as
well.
Mr.
Penton
I
thought
did
a
good
job
in
the
overview.
This
is
a
simple
sign,
request,
I'll
fast
forward
and
hit
the
highlights.
Five
years
ago
we
stood
before
you
talking
about
the
rezoning
to
accommodate
this.
What
is
now
called
the
ally
center
at
the
time
we
made
requests
for
signage
and
at
the
time
we
requested
two
electronic
signs
up
to
300
feet.
V
Well,
technology
and
signage
has
changed
a
lot
in
five
years,
and
now
what
has
happened
because
al
I
would
like
to
put
their
logo
at
the
top
of
the
building
which
they're
lapped?
We
could
put
the
ally
sign
right
there
as
a
static
sign,
but
now
technology
being
where
it
is.
They
would
like
to
have
the
technology
to
make
that
electronic
sign
so
that
it
can
be
purple
their
color
on
the
fourth
of
July
it
can.
It
can
wave
like
an
American
flag,
so
to
do
that
we
are
requesting.
V
B
V
B
F

We
had
a
motion
to
close
all
in
favor,
say
aye
next
petition
that
we
have
is
item
29
and
I'm
in
his
petition,
2019
162
by
Kenneth
Simmons
for
approximately
three
acres
along
the
northern
side
of
olkhon
Court
near
the
intersection
with
North
Tryon
is
in
district
4.
The
current
zoning
is
I
to
industrial.
The
proposed
zoning
is
transit,
oriented
development.
Transitional
staff
recommends
approval
of
this
petition.
Mr.
Penton
is
going
to
give
us
the
staff
presentation
and
mr.
B
M
You
2019
162
2.8
acres
on
old
Concord,
just
in
the
close
to
the
proximity
of
intersection
with
North
Tryon
Street,
the
sites
currently
zoned
I
2,
which
is
industrial
they're.
Looking
at
a
proposed
request
of
TOD
TR,
which
is
transitory
and
development
transitional.
We
are
looking
at
the
old,
conqueror
transit
station
area
plan
with
this
petition,
which
was
adopted
in
2013.
It
does
recommend
office
retail
uses
for
the
site.
M
It's
also
supportive
of
transit,
supportive
uses
within
point
five
miles
of
a
transit
station,
which
this
petition
is
within
a
half
mile
walking
distance
to
that
station.
So
staff
does
recommend
approval.
The
request
is
for
a
Tod
district
and
it's
within
that
half
mile
welcome
distance
to
the
old
Concord
Road
station
that
states
that
existing
employment
based
non
residential
areas
are
expected
to
remain
approval.
AA
Our
church
is
about
45
years
old.
We've
been
in
this
particular
case
of
all
45
years
and
about
11
years
ago,
I
auditorium
burned
down
on
a
Saturday
night.
If
you
can
imagine
what
that's
like
and
but
we
had,
the
church
had
built
a
Family,
Life
Center
and
we've
been
meeting
as
a
church
in
that
Family
Life
Center
for
all
this
time,
but
but
our
desire
has
been
to
build
an
auditorium:
a
worship,
center,
separate
worship
center
from
the
Family
Life
Center.
AA
Now
what
we
have
been
thinking
of
doing
and
because
half
of
our
membership
comes
in
on
buses,
we
run
a
bus
ministry
on
Sunday
morning.
We
also
have
a
we
also
advertise
the
light
rail
and
on
our
gospel
tracts
and
on
a
website
as
well,
and
we
push
that
that
public
transportation
and
simply
because,
when
you
look
at
our
church,
like
I
mentioned,
half
of
the
half
of
the
membership
comes
in
on
the
buses.
AA
That
makes
any
kind
of
sense
and
I
believe
that
we're
in
a
position
where
people
can
take
great
advantage
of
the
light
rail
and
use
it
for
our
church.
Our
church
is
a
very
multicultural
Church.
We
believe
the
church
is
out
of
your
reflection
of
its
community
and
when
you
look
at
Harbor
Baptist
Church,
it
is
a
reflection
of
Charlotte
North
Carolina
we've
had
people
from
all
walks
of
life
and
we
we
minister,
to
the
CCT
community
of
first
Center
transition
next
door
to
ask
some
of
those,
ladies,
are
members
of
our
church.
AA
We
go
and
get
them.
We
have
a
strong
ministry
on
UNC,
Charlotte
campus
as
well,
and-
and
we
have
some
of
those
students
come
to
our
church
as
well,
so
we
want
to
stay
in
this
place.
We
believe
that
we're
gonna
have
some
signal
growth
over
the
next
years,
and
we've
noted
that
light
rail
will
be
very
beneficial
for
us
as
a
church
as
well.
So
thank
you
for
your
consideration.
Thank.
B
M
164
is
just
over
an
acre
on
Johnson
Taylor
Road.
That's
just
south
of
a
I-485
are
looking
at
a
proposal
for
R
3
to
R
8
MF
C
D,
which
is
an
r8
multifamily
conditional
district
and
I
recently
had
a
large
rezoning
for
the
property
that
you
see
here
in
orange.
That
went
from.
You
are
three
and
you
are
two
CD
that
was
for
a
mix
of
apartments,
some
senior
living
a
daycare
at
this
intersection.
M
Here
we
also
had
a
decision
this
evening
on
some
townhome
development
on
both
sides
of
Johnson
aileron
in
this
general
area.
This
is
a
1.1
acre
tract.
That's
looking
at
8
dwelling
units
attached
single-family,
so
eight
townhomes
we've
got
connectivity
to
the
project
that
we
just
kind
of
talked
through
and
had
a
daycare
component
along
with
some
public
infrastructure
for
a
larger
scale.
Multifamily
mixed-use
development
we've
got
access
provided
via
right
and
right
out
on
Johnston
Taylor
Road.
M
We
do
have
some
internal
connections
as
we
talked
about
and
then
some
of
the
streetscape
connections
on
Johnson
Taylor
and
then
setback
of
12
to
24
inches
for
garages
from
front
walk
claim
for
some
architectural
standards
that
we
have
as
part
of
this
petition,
usable
porches
and
Stoops
as
well
so-
and
we
look
at
the
area
plan-
for
this
is
prosperity
Hux.
This
is
a
residential
recommendation
for
up
to
four
dwelling
units
per
acre
again.
M
This
certainly
could
be
looked
at
as
part
of
tying
into
this
larger
project
here,
particularly
with
the
road
connection
that's
being
provided,
so
we've
got
would
end
up
with
a
component
of
multifamily
apartments,
daycare,
some
townhomes
and
then
again,
we've
got
the
school
on
this
end
and
then
some
additional
attached
single-family
in
this
portion,
and
then
we
transition
back
to
some
of
the
more
our
less
dense
single-family
as
you
get
a
little
bit
south
of
Johnston,
a
Lee
Road.
So,
as
we
had
talked
through
this
proposal,
staff
did
recommend
approval
this
petition.
M
We
do
have
a
few
outstanding
issues
related
to
transportation
and
site
design,
mainly
that's
trying
to
work
through
where
that
access
points
going
to
be
on
Johnston
Naylor.
It
really
depends
on
location
on
how
we
deal
with
it
being
a
write
and
write
out
or
dealing
with
some
median
breaks
within
that
road.
It's
as
well.
So
again,
we
do
have
a
few
issues
that
we
still
need
to
work
through,
but
overall
staff
does
recommend
approval
and
we'll
be
happy
to
answer
questions
following
petitioners.
Presentation.
A
R
Thank
You
mayor
Lyles
and
good
evening,
council
members,
the
zoning
committee,
my
name
is
Nick
Tosca
and
I'm
with
the
law
firm
pointer
school
here
in
Charlotte
and
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
the
petitioner
P
dann
Holdings
LLC,
which
is
run
by
Dan
McCain,
who
is
here
as
well
tonight
and
he's
the
developer
and
the
owner
of
this
site,
as
well
as
our
site,
designer
of
Sean
Penn
with
coal
Genesis
stone.
So
just
a
little
bit
of
background
dan
is
a
small
independent
builder
here
in
this
community,
he's
been
doing
it
for
over
30
years.
R
He
builds
small,
affordable,
single-family
and
multi-family
homes
for
sale
and
for
rent,
and
the
goal
of
this
zoning
specifically
is
to
allow
development
for
up
to
eight
residential
units
through
a
mixture
of
cost-effective
housing
types,
most
likely,
townhome
and
quadruplets
drug
structures.
Just
to
give
you
a
quick
timeline
that
that's
the
timeline
there
of
what
we've
done
in
the
process
and
I
just
would
highlight
for
you
that
we
met
with
the
Neighborhood
Association
Prosperity
village
Association.
They
are
supportive
of
the
project
and
that
we
had
a
community
meeting.
There
were
no
major
concerns
raised.
R
Just
some
issues
with
traffic
in
the
area,
generally
speaking,
so
if
holly
can
pull
up
the
second
page
of
this
I
have
a
the
site
plan
to
show
you
that,
generally,
we
just
have
the
residential
and
the
parking
envelopes
shown
there.
I
might
not
be
working
now,
but
the
site
there.
It
is,
and
then,
in
addition
to
the
parking
envelopes
that
you
see
there,
we
also
have
we're
showing
the
drive
access
and,
as
dave
said,
the
connection
to
the
the
rezoning
that
took
place
right
adjacent
to
this
site.
R
You
will
see
setbacks
and
everything,
but
we
we
have
discussed
with
staff
the
idea
of
on
the
next
recent
metal
taking
out
the
setbacks,
and
things
are
just
showing
it
that
it'll
be
conditioned
upon
the
building
layout
and
the
orientation
of
the
buildings
and
then
in
case
you're
interested
in
knowing
what
the.
If
we
can
go
back
to
the
PowerPoint.
R
What
this
will
look
like
when
it's
built
dan
tends
to
build
duplexes
and
townhomes,
and
this
is
an
example
of
the
duplex
that
will
be
built.
A
1-bedroom
1-bath,
the
rents
for
$775,
which
in
this
area
is
a,
is
pretty
affordable
and
then
he
also
has
these
townhomes.
That
is
also
the
type
of
product
that
you'll
see
on
the
site.
There.
R
It's
a
three
bedroom
two
bath,
townhome
that'll
rent
for
around
one
thousand
three
hundred
ninety
five
dollars
again
pretty
affordable
for
this
area,
and
this
is,
as
you
can
see,
these
are
southern
style
and
very
Charlotte
feel
to
them
products
and
affordable
compared
to
the
area.
As
they've
said,
there's
only
a
couple
outstanding
issues
which
I
think
we've
addressed
and
the
primary
one
being
the
the
access
issue,
which.
I
M
We
just
met
recently
I
think
I
was
about
on
the
10th
of
February.
So
after
that
meeting
I
think
the
discussion
was
to
look
at
some
of
the
alternatives
they
proposed
with
CDOT
staff
and
get
them
some
feedback
between
the
prep.
For
the
meeting
for
this,
we
haven't
had
a
chance
to
get
back
and
something
we'll
work
through
as
they
get
to
zoning
committee.
M
I
will
have
that
ironed
out,
so
we
can
present
that
to
zoning
committee
and
they
can
make
the
recommendation
based
off
what
those
changes
are
and
then
we'll
bring
that
back
with
a
decision
to
y'all,
and
then
we
evaluate
that
when
it
gets
to
be
that
point,
but
we
still
have
a
few
things
to
work
through
with
them.
When.
I
B
Thanks
very
much
all
right.
The
next
item
is
item
31
2019
165
by
would
partners
for
four
acres
on
the
north
side
of
West
Moorhead
Street,
it's
in
district
3.
The
current
zoning
is
wide
industrial
as
well
as
single-family
residential,
a
multi
Road.
It's
got
every
reasoning
in
this
four
acres.
An
office
as
well,
and
the
request
is:
zoning
is
transit,
oriented
development,
community
center
staff
recommends
approval
and
we
will
hear
from
the
staff
and
then
we
will
hear
from
mr.
Brown
again.
M
Okay,
2019
165
4
acres
on
West
Morgan.
It
does
have
frontage,
then
back
on
Miller
to
nab
and
then
a
parcel
on
Morton
Street
as
well
as
we
had
mentioned.
It's
got
just
about
all
of
the
zoning
districts
that
we
have
on
the
site.
There's
I
1r5
are
2202,
so
I've
got
quite
a
mix
out
there.
Currently
we
would
go
to
a
Tod
CC
under
this
proposal
that
would
consolidate
all
those
zoning
districts
into
one.
M
We
get
a
mix
of
uses
that
would
likely
be
developing
on
the
site
under
some
of
those
other
districts,
but
with
more
continuity
and
better
design
standards
than
what
we've
got
currently
out
there.
This
is
under
the
Bryant
Park
land-use
and
streetscape
plan,
which
was
adopted
in
2007,
does
recommend
a
mix
of
uses.
There
is
a
portion
on
the
back
side,
that's
recommended
for
residential
up
to
or
equal
to,
22
dwelling
units
per
acre.
As
you
can
see,
the
majority
is
recommended
for
mixed
uses
as
much
of
the
area
out
here.
M
We've
seen
a
mix
of
mud
and
TOD
zoning
in
this
area,
both
with
the
same
general
outcomes
of
being
what
would
be
transit
supportive
in
the
area
of
the
Silver
Line,
which
is
just
nearby
there's
two
stops
within
this
general
area
that
would
come
into
play
so
we're
in
about
within
a
quarter
to
a
half
mile
of
those
sites.
That
would
be
part
of
that
future
Silver
Line
so
again
between
the
mix,
juice,
language
recommendation
and
some
of
the
other
development
ongoing
Tod
along
that
potential
silver
line
would
be
something
that
would
make
general
sense.
M
So
we
do
recommend
approval
of
this
petition.
As
we
said,
it's
consistent
with
the
mixed
use
component.
That's
liked
inconsistency
with
that.
Single-Family
up
to
12
22
dwelling
units
is
inconsistent,
but
overall,
we've
got
general
consistency
with
the
adopted
plan,
feel
the
Tod
district
is
appropriate
and
we
do
recommend
approval
and
we'll
be
happy
to
take
any
questions.
Following
the
petitioners
presentation.
V
Mayor
councilmembers,
Colin
brown,
on
behalf
of
wood
partners
and
thanks
Boyd
from
wood,
is
here
tonight
as
well.
I
think
they've
got
to
give
a
good
overview
with
this
being
a
Tod,
conventional
reasoning.
There's
not
a
lot
of
detail
for
me
to
delve
into
I
definitely
would
be
helpful
to
have
a
map
of
the
proposed
Silver
Line.
So
you
can
see
those
stations
in
proximity
to
this
site
here
here
it
is
again.
V
This
is
another
look
at
it,
so
we've
got
a
four
acre
site.
It's
a
pretty
interesting
assemblage
and
this
property
has
some
unique
history.
Had
some
uses
that
were
very
negative
influence
in
the
community
now
mostly
vacant.
There's
some
off
here.
This
is
a
look
at
it
from
the
street.
That's
the
use.
I
mentioned
that
has
now
been
vacated.
It's
a
look
at
Moorhead
and
then
the
question
is
you
know?
What
does
this
become?
As
you
can
see,
we
looked
at
a
number.
V
There
have
been
a
number
of
mud
zonings
that
have
occurred
in
the
area,
our
initial
conversations
with
staff.
We
talked
about
that
and
staff
said
well.
We've
spent
so
much
time
on
the
Tod
and
we
are
confident
in
its
design
standards
about
two
months
ago
you
approved
Tod
zoning,
which
extends
right
here,
so
that
was
staffs
recommendation
that
we
pursue
that
we
are
proposing
a
Tod
CC
site
plan
that
is
consistent
with
staffs
recommendation.
Happy
to
answer
any
questions.
B
Petition
2019
1
169
by
Thompson
thrift
development
for
approximately
15
acres,
located
on
the
east
side
of
Ridge
Road
outside
of
the
city
limits.
The
current
zoning
is
commercial
center.
The
proposed
zoning
is
commercial
center
site
plan.
Amendment
with
5-year
vested
rights
staff
recommends
approval
upon
resolution
of
issues,
and
we
are
going
to
hear
from
the
staff
and
mr.
Brown.
Okay.
M
Thank
you,
2019
169,
just
under
16
acres
on
Mallard
Creek
in
Ridge
Road.
This
petition
is
currently
zoned
CC,
which
is
commercial
center.
We're
looking
at
a
request
for
CC
with
the
site
plan
amendment
they
do
have
a
five-year
vested
right
included.
We
did
talk
there
a
little
bit
of
that
at
lunch.
We'll
continue
to
talk
to
the
petitioner
about
the
need
for
that
request
remaining,
but
as
we
move
forward,
we're
looking
at
the
northeast
area
plan,
which
is
from
2000,
does
recommend
multifamily
office
retail
uses
for
this
site.
M
This
site
was
part
of
a
little
previously
approved
plan
that
had
some
previous
entitlements
that
were
shifted
over
to
the
north
side
of
Mallard
Creek
Road.
So
essentially,
this
petition
is
coming
back
and
looking
at
trying
to
re-establish
some
of
those
entitlements
on
this
side
of
the
road
as
well.
So
we're
looking
at
280
multifamily
residential
units,
some
general
Road
improve
for
our
planning,
strips
12-foot
multi-use
paths
along
Ridge,
Road,
eaten
eight-foot
planting
strip,
an
8-foot
sidewalk
along
all
other
streets.
M
Well,
we
will
have
an
ad
a
compliant
bus
waiting
pad
which
cats
will
work
with
a
petitioner
on
determine
where
that's
going
to
be
located,
and
then
you
have
other
general
development
standards
on
site,
bicycle
parking
which
will
align
with
the
city's
vision,
zero
principles,
50-foot
maximum
building
height
and
then
some
architectural
standards
which
are
fairly
standard
for
a
project
of
this
type
with
multifamily.
We
do
recommend
approval
this
petition.
B
V
To
mr.
Penton
Colin
Brown
on
behalf
of
Thompson
thrift,
the
confident
team
is
here
behind
me.
One
of
things
I
want
to
say
with
the
property
location.
This
is
not
currently
in
the
City
of
Charlotte,
so
this
is
Landon
Mecklenburg
County
that's
enter
etj
Thompson
thrift
intends
to
annex
in.
So
this
is
a
potential
upside
for
us.
I
know
this
seems
in
the
seems
like
a
long
way
out
when
I
think
this
is
past
45.
What
I
do
want
to
point
out
is
here's
the
county
line.
This
is
Cabarrus
County.
V
This
is
Bruton
Smith
Boulevard,
so
this
maze
we
make.
It
may
be
a
long
way
from
uptown,
but
it
is
very
near
the
heart
of
Cabarrus
County
and
Conchords
economic
engine,
so
very
good
proximity,
that's
one
of
the
reasons
is
so
desirable.
You've
got
a
huge
economic
center
here
and
you
have
access
to
45
and
85.
So
it's
a
tremendous
location,
there's
a
look
at
it
from
Mallard
Creek.
The
sites
is
over
here.
V
Existing
zoning,
the
state
said
it's
got
commercial
center.
Zoning
already
was
one
of
the
early
ones,
so
in
the
early
2000s
we
spent
a
lot
of
time
with
staff
unpacking
this
another
challenge
on
the
site,
so
I
think
we're
consistent
with
the
plan
recommendation.
Another
challenge
is
when
the
original
setting
was
done.
45
wasn't
there
we've
got.
Ncdot
is
put
some
roads
together.
So
we've
spent
a
lot
of
time
unpacking
jigging.
This
we've
had
no
no
attendees
that
we've
done
actually
to
multiple
community
meetings.
