A
Greetings:
everyone,
my
name,
is
Collin
Brown
I
am
an
attorney
with
a
law
firm
of
Alexander
Rick's
I'm,
a
land
use
attorney,
so
I
assist
petitioners
developers
and
property
owners
with
rezoning
and
welcoming
you
to
the
official
community
meeting
for
rezoning
petition,
two
thousand
twenty
twenty
seven,
which
is
related
to
the
Eastland
mall
property.
Thank
you
for
joining
us.
I
will
say
that
I
typically
handle
a
few
rezoning
community
meetings
a
week,
so
I've
probably
done
hundreds
in
my
career,
but
I
have
never
done
a
virtual
community
meeting.
A
So
I
hope
that
you
all
will
bear
with
me
and
our
team
as
we
embark
on
this
virtual
community
meeting
as
we
get
started.
I'll
give
you
a
overview
of
our
agenda
and
to
start
I.
Guess
I'd
like
to
set
expectations
a
little
bit
with
a
property
in
a
redevelopment
as
significant
and
substantial
as
the
Eastland
mall
resenting.
There
are
a
lot
of
moving
parts.
There
are
a
lot
of
facets.
A
A
lot
of
issues
want
to
be
clear
that
this
meeting
today
is
really
just
about
the
reasoning
which
is
a
land
use
decision
and
the
City
Council
will
be
making
a
determination
about
what
land
uses
are
appropriate
on
the
site.
So
I
know
there
are
a
lot
of
other
moving
parts
going
on
with
the
Eastland
Mall
redevelopment.
Some
of
those
you
may
have
questions
for
this.
This
is
not
I'm.
Rezoning
process
is
not
the
time
that
those
will
be
answered.
There
are
several
other
processes
that
are
ongoing
with
the
City
of
Charlotte
and
I.
A
A
We
couldn't
possibly
get
into
all
that
detail
and
presentation
like
this
one,
so
I
didn't
want
to
let
you
know
that
for
every
reasoning,
the
City
of
Charlotte
maintains
a
website
or
the
rezoning,
and
if
you
want
to
find
out
more
about
this,
you
can
go
to
that
website
and
the
easiest
way
to
do
it
is,
if
you
just
google,
Charlotte
reasoning
and
then
type
in
petition,
2020
0
7.
That
will
take
you
to
the
city's
website.
For
this
rezoning
petition.
You
can
see
the
site
plan.
You
can
really
look
into
the
details
on
that.
A
You'll
also
see
memorandums
from
various
different
city
departments,
so
I
know
that
this
presentation
really
may
just
be
scratching
the
surface
kind
of
giving
you
a
high-level
orientation.
If
you
have
further
questions,
then
certainly
make
use
of
the
city's
website
go
and
take
a
look
at
the
at
the
rezoning
petition.
Take
a
look
at
those
memos.
There's
a
lot
more
information
there.
So
again
you
can
just
google
Charlotte
rezoning
petition,
2020
0
to
7
and
find
a
wealth
of
information
about
this.
So
for
purposes
of
this
meeting,
the
agenda
I'll
go
through.
Some
introductions.
A
The
idea
in
this
presentation
today
will
be
giving
you
an
overview.
This
presentation
should
be
going,
live
and
accessible
on
May
1st,
so
you
can
watch
this
at
your
leisure.
If
you
have
friends
or
neighbors
that
are
interested,
please
feel
free
to
forward
them
the
link.
They
can
take
a
look
at
it
and
then
you've
got
almost
two
weeks.
A
If
you
have
any
feedback
or
questions
you'd
like
to
give
us,
you
can
give
us
that
feedback
and
then
our
goal
is
that
we're
going
to
reconvene
this
team
on
May
13th
and
in
that
session,
we're
going
to
respond
to
questions
that
we've
received
and
we
hope
to
have
the
ability
to
have
a
little
bit
of
an
interactive
question
to
answer
there.
So
that's
our
goal.
My
goal
today
is
to
give
you
a
high-level
overview
of
the
rezoning.
A
Let
you
go
dig
a
little
deeper
on
the
city's
website,
send
us
questions
or
feedback
and
then
again
we'll
reconvene
on
the
13th
to
discuss
this
in
greater
detail.
So
that
said,
let
me
introduce
the
team
that
is
involved.
You
should
know
that
the
property
owners
are
in
this
case.
This
is
pretty
interesting.
The
city
of
charlotte
owns
the
property,
the
bulk
of
it.
A
A
smaller
portion
of
the
property,
is
in
by
a
group
called
little
Ora
Lake
partners,
so
we've
assembled
these
pieces
to
to
create
the
bulk
of
the
property
in
the
rezoning
petitioning
for
the
rezoning.
This
is
a
joint
petition
with
the
City
of
Charlotte
and
crawls
on
southeast.
So,
on
behalf
of
the
petitioners
today,
from
the
City
of
Charlotte
you'll
be
hearing
from
assistant
city
manager,
Tracy
Dotson
Todd,
along
with
the
city's
Economic
Development
Department,
may
be
involved
with
us
on
the
13th.
A
To
answer
some
more
detailed
questions
on
behalf
of
cross
and
southeast
today,
you'll
be
hearing
from
Tim
sediment
with
Rozlyn,
as
I
mentioned,
my
name
is
Collin
Brown.
My
associate
Brittney
lens
will
be
assisting
us
in
preparing
the
community
meeting
report,
which
will
summarize
our
presentation
and
then
your
feedback
that
we
receive
over
the
next
week
or
two.
Finally,
one
of
the
major
routes
working
on
this
is
land
design.
A
They
are
a
landscape,
design,
civil
engineering
firm
that
are
really
helping
actually
design
the
potential
development
and
make
sure
that
we're
requesting
the
proper
entitlements
and
zonings
to
accommodate
for
the
vision
that
the
city
and
crawls
and
southeast
has
for
the
site.
So
I
expect
they
won't
be
speaking
today,
but
they'll
be
very
involved
in
probably
helping
us
address
the
questions
that
you
pose
and
hopefully
giving
us
some
feedback
as
we
respond
to
you
on
mate
13.
A
A
Many
of
you
may
be
very
familiar
more
familiar
than
we
are
the
Eastland
mall
area,
but
if
you
can
see
here
on
your
screen,
here's
the
Eastland
mall
property
and
you
can
see
here's
the
Central
Avenue
corridor,
leading
to
Uptown
Independence
Boulevard
Albemarle
Road,
just
to
give
you
a
little
proximity
of
the
site
as
we
zoom
in
closer
here's,
a
tighter
view
of
the
property.
The
subject
properties
are
outlined
in
green.
So,
as
you
can
see,
the
bulk
of
the
site
where
the
star
is
is
the
property
owned
by
the
City
of
Charlotte.
A
To
give
you
some
more
bearings
to
the
western
side
of
the
site
here.
This
is
where
the
Kwik
Trip
currently
is,
and
then
in
the
northwest
corner
as
the
language,
the
Charlotte
East
Language
Academy,
moving
on
here,
just
some
photos
so
you're
familiar
with
the
site.
This
is
a
look
at
the
site
from
Central
Avenue.
A
Now
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
existing
zoning.
As
we
talked
about
the
site,
you
can
see
the
bulk
of
the
site
here
is
outlined
in
green
and
the
existing
zoning
there
are
a
number
I've
highlighted
them
in
yellow
different
zoning
designations
on
the
property.
The
bulk
of
the
site
is
in
B
1
SC
D
as
an
old
ordinance
whole
district.
That
is
not
even
in
Charlotte
zoning
ordinance
city
anymore,
is
the
b1
shopping
center
district.
There's
a
portion
of
the
site
zone
CC.
A
That
is
a
commercial
center
zoning,
and
then
you
see
other
another
piece
of
the
site
that
is
in
mud.
That
is
a
mixed-use
development
district.
So
we've
got
a
bit
of
a
hodgepodge
of
rezoning
districts
currently
on
the
site
to
take
a
deeper
dive
you
can
see.
This
is
one
of
the
older
zoning
documents
governing
the
site.
You
can
see
the
layout
of
Eastland
mall
so
that
you
know
the
existing
zoning
would
accommodate
almost
1.2
million
square
feet
of
retail
square
footages
so
that
accommodated
Eastland
mall,
formerly
a
regional
mall
on
the
site.
A
Since
that
time
there
were
minor
zoning
modifications
to
the
site
to
accommodate
different
development
plans.
What
you
see
on
the
screen
now
this
is
the
zoning
document
for
the
wool
Laurel
Lake
parcel.
That's
the
area
to
the
east
of
the
site
is
currently
Zone,
B
1,
C
D,
and
there
is
a
site-specific
zoning
plan
which
accommodates
a
grocer
on
the
site.
So,
as
you
can
see
from
this,
there
are
a
variety
of
hold
zoning
districts.
A
Many
of
them
are
outdated,
and
so
one
of
the
things
that
this
rezoning
has
intended
to
do
is
bring
some
modern
zoning
districts
to
the
site
to
accommodate
more
contemporary
development
and
as
we
we
look
to
what
type
of
zoning
is
appropriate
as
we
do
with
every
rezoning.
We
look
to
see
if
City
Council
has
provided
any
guidance
to
area
planets
and
in
this
area
there
is
an
adopted
area
plan,
the
Eastland
area
plan.
A
This
was
adopted
by
Charlotte
City
Council
in
2003,
so
this
has
been
around
a
while,
but
I
think
our
city
leadership
has
been
looking
at
the
Eastland
issue
in
trying
to
plan
for
the
future,
and
so
this
is
a
policy
document.
It
is
not
governing,
but
it's
what
we
look
to
you
when
redevelopment
is
occurring
and
if
you
can
see
this
is
the
recommendation
for
the
Eastland
mall
site,
the
star
shows
you
the
main
portion
of
the
site,
so
in
2003
our
council
looked
at
this.
There
are
a
number
of
stakeholders.
A
Some
of
you
all
may
have
been
involved
in
that
process
and
the
land-use
recommendation
for
the
bulk
of
the
site
is
here
it's
mixed-use
and
further
than
that,
the
plan
calls
for
a
mixture
of
single-family
residential
multi-family
residential
office
and
retail
and
here's
a
piece
in
the
middle
of
the
site.
That
said,
primarily
retail.
B
A
Really
reflected
that
specific
zoning
in
that
area,
but
overall
what
we
take
from
this
is
council.
At
that
time
the
stakeholders
involved
supported
future
of
Eastland
mall
being
a
real
mixed-use
campus
with
all
types
of
residential
uses
and
commercial
uses.
So
that's
the
best,
the
document
that
our
planning
staff
and
council
will
look
to
so
following
that
lead,
the
development
team
has
proposed
a
rezoning
plan
and
I'll
walk
you
through
that
now
now,
I'll
tell
you
for
any
of
you
following
or
if
you
want
more
information
on
this.
A
Every
rezoning
petition
that
is
filed
the
City
of
Charlotte
Planning
Department,
a
design
and
development
department
will
maintain
a
website.
So
if
you'd
like
more
information,
if
you
would
like
to
look
at
these
plans
in
greater
detail,
the
easiest
way
to
find
that
is,
if
you
just
google
Charlotte
rezoning,
2020
0
to
7.
That
will
take
you
to
the
city's
dedicated
webpage
for
that
for
this
rezoning.
When
you
get
there,
you'll
be
able
to
see
a
copy
of
the
rezoning
plan
that
I'm
showing
you,
you
can
also
see
departmental
memos
from
each
city
department.
A
That's
reviewed
it
such
a
really
good
way
to
follow
the
rezoning.
You
have
additional
questions
you
might
find
them
answered
there,
one
of
the
things
when
you,
if
you
or
to
go
to
that
web
page
and
again,
if
you
want
to
find
that
just
Google
Charlotte
reasoning,
2020
0,
27
that'll,
take
you
there.
One
of
the
things
you'll
see
is
this
is
our
rezoning
plan.
In
Charlotte
we
have
two
types
of
zonings:
we
have
conventional
zonings
and
conditional
zones
conventional
zonings
presenting
is
where
essentially,
you
just
get
a
set
of
zoning
letters.
A
You
open
up
the
ordinance
and
you
can
develop
anything
that
have
allowed
in
that
zoning
district.
Most
of
the
reasonings
that
I
work
on
are
a
little
more
detailed.
They
are
conditional
stonings,
which
have
a
site
specific
rezoning
plan
accompanying
them
when
you're
looking
at
a
project
with
a
scope
of
eastland.
Yes,
we
had
proposed
a
conventional
zoning
for
the
site.
That's
something
that
our
planning
department,
the
city's
planning
department,
is
not
comfortable
with.
So
they
asked
the
development
team
to
consider
a
conditional
zoning
and
that's
what
we
have
we
have
submitted.
A
A
The
northern
piece,
which
is
closer
to
the
single-family
neighborhoods
to
the
north,
that
is
an
mx2
innovative
zoning
district,
move
to
the
next
slide
and
lead
us
a
little
bit
about
those,
so
the
two
dozen
zoning
districts
that
we're
using
little
confusing
because
they
both
have
the
word
mixed
in
them
on
the
right-hand
side.
This
is
straight
from
the
ordinance
and
you're
welcome
to
take
a
look
at
this.
A
The
parcels
fronting
on
Central
Avenue,
we're
proposing
or
a
mixed-use
development
district,
and
if
you
want
to
follow
along
with
me
here
in
the
ordinance
that
encourages
really
a
mixture
of
uses
more
commercial
in
nature,
so
we
see
that
being
a
more
commercial,
more
intensive
side.
The
northern
development
area,
which
is
closer
to
the
single-family
homes,
we're
proposing
an
mx2
district
and
the
mx2
district
is,
is
less
intensive
than
the
regular
mud.
A
As
you
see
here
in
the
ordinance,
it's
really
more
residential
II
intended
and
to
accommodate
a
range
residential
housing
types,
the
switching
back
to
the
plan,
so
you
can
see
it
again,
the
northern
personal
there's
an
MX
to
that
area.
The
development
of
vision
is
for
a
less
intensive
residential
use,
some
more
single-family
homes,
the
parcels
to
the
south,
more
intensive
commercial
development
in
between
the
mud
districts
area,
one
we
think,
would
be
more
of
a
commercial
village.
Well,
there's
some
flexibility
and
development
area
to
to
lap
to
accommodate
a
potential,
a
sports,
entertainment
district.
A
That's
a
look
at
the
rezoning
plan,
some
information
about
the
reasoning
districts.
Now
these
rezoning
districts
were
using
in
this
conditional
zoning
generally
we're
going
to
default
to
the
standards
of
the
district.
In
some
cases,
both
of
these
are
conditional
requests
and
we've
requested
some
options
to
allow
some
of
the
innovative
development
that
might
occur
on
the
site
and
I
want
to
point
those
out
to
you.
So
in
the
mud
area,
you'll
see
a
couple
optional
requests:
one
is
some
innovative
signage.
A
We
think
if
the
sports,
entertainment
vision
does
come
to
fruition,
we
would
need
some
different
signage
than
you
would
see
in
a
DIF
in
a
typical
commercial
development
same
as
far
as
lighting
might
need
that
for
sports
fields.
Things
like
that,
so
we've
asked
for
innovative
standards
on
our
signage
and
lighting,
also
some
flexibility
on
parking
and
maneuvering
areas.
And
finally,
hopefully
we
have
a
request
for
some
drive-thru
uses.
I
should
point
out
that
the
existing
zoning
bill
II
won
a
CD
and
CC
districts.
A
They
don't
limit,
drive
throughs
and
if
you've
gone
down,
Central
Avenue,
you
can
see
that
area
is
developed
with
very
vehicular
intensive
uses.
That
is
not
the
direction
the
development
team
wants
to
go
any
small,
nor
is
it
the
direction
the
city
wants
to
see
it
again.
So
this
rezoning
has
some
pretty
clear
restrictions
on
drive-throughs.
As
you
can
see
here,
only
three
are
allowed
of
those
three.
Only
one
can
be
a
typical
restaurant
with
a
drive-through.
A
Second,
can
be
a
limited
service,
restaurant,
something
you'd,
see
like
a
Starbucks
or
maybe
an
era,
and
then
the
third
could
not
be
a
restaurant
at
all
but
could
serve
you
know,
maybe
a
pharmacy
or
financial
institution
like
a
bank
with
a
driver,
so
those
are
the
restrictions
other
than
that
no
other
drive-throughs
will
be
allowed.
Those
are
the
optional
provisions
related
to
the
mud
zoning.
A
In
addition,
as
part
of
this
reasoning,
the
development
team
has
committed
to
standards
over
and
above
that
are
that
are
more
restrictive
in
the
underlying
zoning.
I
want
to
point
those
out,
there's
a
commitment
to
provide
a
Main,
Street
focal
point,
I'm,
pretty
central
to
the
site,
where
the
developer
has
agreed
to
self
imposed
some
height
and
design
and
pedestrian
requirements.
Additionally,
there's
a
commitment
to
provide
a
2
acre
public
park
internal
to
the
site,
there's
a
commitment
to
provide
a
multi-use
path
that
will
connect
the
CMS
school
to
the
core
of
this
site.
A
Additionally,
we've
put
a
cap
on
the
number
of
residential
units
that
can
be
developed
so
across
the
site,
78
acres,
no
more
than
1050
residential
units
could
be
developed.
We
have
some
airs
the
MX
portion,
the
site
closer
to
the
single-family.
Those
would
this
would
be
single-family
type
homes,
the
rest
of
the
site,
the
core,
the
muds
evenings.
They
would
allow
multifamily,
but
that's
the
overall
cap
on
residential,
that's
allowed
just
to
paint
a
little
bit
of
a
luster
tip
for
you,
it's
kind
of
laid
out
for
some
of
those
guys.
A
As
you
see
the
zoning
areas
here,
we've
kind
of
highlighted
at
multi-use
paths
connecting
from
the
school
to
the
center
of
the
site.
We
haven't
identified
exactly
where
these
elements
will
go,
but
we
have
a
general
idea
of
where
the
main
street
focal
point
would
be
and
potentially
where
the
public
park
would
go
so
that
it
does
just
so.
You
can
kind
of
conceive
in
your
mind
how
this
melee,
if
we
have
anyone
next
up
the
City
of
Charlotte,
when
we
talk
about
a
lot
with
rezoning,
sometimes
especially
a
greenfield
development
traffic
impacts.
A
So
once
you
all
know,
the
city
has
conducted
a
traffic
impact
analysis
for
the
site
and
not
surprisingly,
one
of
the
things
that
the
traffic
engineers
look
at
is
the
current
use
of
the
site,
as
we've
talked
to
the
current
entitlements
on
the
site,
allow
a
regional
mall
of
over
a
million
square
feet
of
retail.
There
are
a
few
uses
in
the
world
that
generate
more
traffic
more
trips
than
a
regional
mall.
So
the
good
news
is
that
the
street
network
out
there
is
pretty
robust
at
one
point:
there
are
major
thoroughfares
around
the
site.
A
There
are
multiple
signalized
access
points
to
the
site,
and
this
was
an
area
of
town
that
supported
this
regional
mall.
As
that
has
gone
away,
the
traffic
engineers
have
determined
that
there
is
excess
capacity,
and
so
we
think
there's
capacity
in
the
existing
infrastructure
to
support
the
redevelopment
vision
that
the
petitioners
have
set
forth.
So
we're
comfortable
with
that
I.
Do
want
to
point
out
a
number
of
external
connections
this
the
traffic
impact
study
has
identified
potential
traffic
improvements
that
are
not
necessary,
but
that
may
be
warranted
in
the
future.
A
A
Into
portion
of
the
site
to
the
north
and
west
you'll
see
a
circle
I'll
zoom
in
on
this,
and
you
can
see
there,
it
is
circled.
The
rezoning
would
require
a
connection
to
Stilwell
a
circle.
We
want
to
make
everyone
aware
of
that
now.
This
is
provided
for
in
our
zoning,
but
it
is
not
just
related
to
this
vending
any
development
of
the
Eastland
mall
site.
In
accordance
with
our
subdivision,
there
would
have
to
be
a
connection
between
the
site
and
Stillwell
Oaks.
This
is
not
a
major
access
point
to
the
site.
A
We
do
not
think
that
significant
commercial
traffic
would
be
passing
through
this
area.
The
fact
this
connection
would
be
made
to
the
portion
to
the
area
of
the
site
that
the
development
team
intends
to
be
single-family
housing.
So
it's
in
the
interest
of
I
think
the
neighborhood
and
the
development
team.
This
not
be
a
major
traffic
cut
through
and
I
wanted
to
point
that
out
to
you
all,
but
if
you,
if
you're
a
neighbor
who's
living
in
close
proximity
site,
you
didn't
want
to
know
this
connection
to
make
you
aware
of
that.
I
said
that.
B
A
B
Great
Thank,
You,
Colin
I
appreciate
it.
This
too
is
my
first
virtual
community
meeting
a
little
bit
different,
but
I
can
say
that
one
of
the
special
things
about
the
Eastland
project
has
been
the
community
engagement,
and
so
we
really
do
look
forward
to
being
able
to
be
back
into
the
community
and
see
in
meet
face
to
face
to
talk
about
this
project
as
it
moves
forward.
As
Colin
said,
it
is
not.
The
the
rezoning
is
just
one
piece
of
the
puzzle
through
this.
B
There
will
be
a
lot
more
community
engagement
as
we
go
through,
as
well
as
a
lot
more
discussions
around
the
project.
So
with
that,
let
me
step
back
a
little
bit
and
just
talk
about,
looks,
I,
went
the
wrong
way,
I
step
back
a
little
bit
and
talk
about
the
ISA
history,
and
you
know
we
have.
The
city
has
really
been
involved
with
this
site
for
more
than
two
decades,
and
that
was
even
a
decade
before
the
mall
closed
in
2010
and
I.
B
Think
Colin
mentioned
a
couple
of
studies
that
he's
an
area
plan,
but
there
was
also
a
study
done
by
the
Urban
Land
Institute.
All
of
the
studies
and
all
of
the
analysis-
that's
been
done
with
the
site
over
the
years,
has
really
called
for
a
mixed-use
site,
and
that
is
why,
as
we
started
to
work
through
this
plan
with
cross
and
southeast,
and
we
got
to
a
mixed-use
plan,
we
felt
like
we
could
go
ahead
and
file
for
the
rezoning.
B
Even
though
we
still
have
a
lot
more
work
to
do
rezoning
take
a
little
bit
of
time,
and
we
thought
now
was
the
right
time
that
we
could
do
that
and
get
some
confidence
that
the
project
is
moving
forward.
But
don't
forget
the
rezoning
piece
out
of
the
way.
While
we
continue
to
work
on
other
pieces
of
the
project,
there
has
been
a
timeline
you'll
see
here
about
the
malls
declined,
but
also
some
of
these
studies.
I
mentioned
the
Uli
study,
as
well
as
the
Eastland
area
plan.
B
The
community
engagement
has
been
very
strong
with
more
than
40
interviews,
focus
groups,
email
campaigns,
we've
taken
a
lot
of
that
input
and
the
focus
of
the
sites
has
always
pretty
much
stayed
the
same
since
it
solidified
I,
think
I'm
going
to
say
it's
solidified
really
in
some
of
the
early
plans,
but
also
then,
how
about
2012
about
the
priorities
for
the
site
and
again,
I'll
hit
those
again
in
a
second
but
we're
very
eager
to
move
this
project
forward
and
are
excited
about
the
opportunity.
Hence
the
filing
for
the
rezoning.
B
The
priorities
and
Colin
outlined
a
lot
of
what's
coming
and
you
will
hear
Tim
cinema
outlines
some
of
these.
But
what
we've
heard
from
you
all
and
City
Council
is
that
you
want
a
project.
That's
going
to
be
an
enhancement
to
the
east
side.
You
want
a
project
that
unifies
the
communities
and
the
diversity
that
is
on
the
east
side.
It
creates
connectivity
and
walkability
as
well
as
offers
open
space
and
then
there's
an
opportunity
for
civic
development
as
well
as
increase
Expo
economic
development
opportunities.
B
Some
of
this
you'll
see
come
through
and
the
rezoning
plan.
Some
of
this
we
are
still
working
on
I'll,
highlight
you
know
we
we
have
conversations
about.
How
do
we
create
initiatives
to
support
small
business
here?
You
won't
see
that
in
a
rezoning
plan,
but
you
will
hear
and
talk
about
it
in
future
discussions
about
the
development
of
the
site.
So
going
now
back
to
the
redevelopment
and
then
scuse
me
the
rezoning
of
it
I'm
gonna,
kick
it
over
to
Tim
cinema
with
crime
selfies.
To
give
you
a
little
bit
more
on
the
vision.
C
C
Since
that
time
we've
been
hard
at
work.
I
just
did
all
that
I'm
encouraged
to
hear
Tracey's
comments
about
getting
his
far
on
this
effort,
as
never
before.
Believe
me,
we're
not
just
psyching
the
ball
yet.
We've
got
a
long
way
to
go
and
we
want
to
make
this
vision
into
a
reality.
Certainly,
after
getting
selected
in
the
fall
of
2018,
we
spent
much
of
2019
in
a
community
engagement
effort.
During
that
season
we
conducted
14
neighborhood
meetings.
C
We
interacted
with
over
700
of
you
and
many
of
you
participated
in
that
effort
and
through
that
effort,
really
we
listened
and
learned
from
you
as
what
you
wanted
to
see
in
the
vision
and
what
you
didn't
want
to
see
in
the
vision.
A
parallel
effort
that
we
conducted
was
doing
a
lot
of
research
and
in
spending
a
lot
of
time
with
design
consultants
trying
to
build.
What
is
the
vision
for
the
site
and,
through
those
conversations
through
the
research
through
the
consultant
work,
the
vision
began
to
crystallize
I'm
going
to?
C
So
the
essence
of
the
vision,
the
big
idea,
if
you
will,
is
not
just
having
one
lead,
tenant
or
one
lead
anchor
tenant
the
east
one
site
is
nuanced:
this
complex
it's
it's
a
a
opportunity
to
do
something
very
transformative,
with
a
total
of
78
acres
and
so
the
essence
of
the
vision
is
this
big
idea
on
the
right
hand,
side
of
the
slide?
Where
you
see
the
word
active,
that's
where
we
had
contemplated
doing
a
sports
activator
anchor.
If
you
will
a
second
activator
going
kind
of
cover.
C
Counterclockwise
is
where
you
see
the
words
reside
as
Colin
dedicated
the
northern
part
of
the
site.
That's
the
residential
piece,
the
vision
there
is
setting
a
quality
standard
that
is
very
high
for
the
neighborhood,
those
are
for
sale,
homes
and
townhomes,
principally,
and
also
market
rate
apartments
and
again
the
goal.
There
is
a
very
high
end:
high
quality
development
in.
C
It's
kind
of
hard
to
see
on
this
slide
is
a
signature
Park
in
public
space,
the
parks
and
the
Greenway
connectors
that
that
weave
through
the
site
would
be
a
third
key
activator.
We
see
those
essentially
as
a
community
living
room,
perhaps
where
festivals
and
other
events
in
the
community
could
be
hosted
right
there,
and
if
we
attract
those
three
activators,
the
sports
piece,
the
residential
and
the
public
spaces,
we
believe
will
attract
the
commercial,
restaurant,
food
and
entertainment
types
of
amenities
that
we
all
want
as
well.
A
A
Meeting
in
March
has
been
delayed,
and
so
now
we're
accomplishing
that
through
this
virtual
community
meeting,
which
we
expect
to
go
live
on
May
1st,
you
may
see
that
at
your
leisure,
if
you
have
comments
or
questions,
please
get
those
back
to
us
by
May
12th,
so
that
we
can
try
and
be
responsive
to
those
at
our
virtual
follow-up
meeting
on
May
13th
and
this
at
that
point.
We
would
then
hope
to
proceed
to
City
Council
for
a
public
hearing
on
May
18th
and
then
after
City
Council.
A
This
would
go
to
our
zoning
committee,
who
would
make
a
recommendation
and
then
we
are
optimistic
that
we
b-before
the
council
on
June
15th
or
a
council
decision
on
this
reasoning,
but
stay
tuned
that
that
process
sometimes
changes
as
far
as
the
information
you
hear
today.
If
you
have
questions
and
I
know,
but
some
reasons,
there's
there's
great
detail
in
great
minutiae,
but
you
are
welcome
to
log
in
again
to
the
city's
website.
Google
resenting
petition,
2020
0:27.
You
can
look
through
our
site
plan.
You
can
look
through
the
development
standards.
A
There's
there's
much
more
meat
on
the
bone
in
there.
If
you
have
questions
feel
free
to
send
an
email,
we
set
up
a
dedicated
email
which
is
eastland
at
Charlotte,
NC
gov
and
additionally,
we
expect
to
have
a
little
more
interactive
response.
Meeting
on
May
13th
we're
still
working
out
all
the
details,
but
stay
tuned,
we'll
push
out
information
through
that
through
the
regular
channels
and
you
Meghan.
Hopefully
you
can
log
in
again
with
us
on
the
13th
and
hear
some
of
the
responses
to
the
questions.
Then
Tracy
anything
else
before
we
go
I,
don't.
B
Think
that
I
think
I
would
reiterate
to
the
schedule
that
this
is
the
schedule
specifically
for
the
rezoning.
There
were
again
be
more
discussions
related
around
public
investment
and
more
details
around
the
site,
as
we
evolved
through
the
process.
So
I
want
the
community
to
be
very
clear
that
this
is
one
step
in
the
process
and
there
will
still
be
many
more
opportunities
for
community
engagement
and
input
as
we
move
along.
