Explanation

§                     The City has received a petition for voluntary annexation of private property.

§                     Public hearings are required prior to City Council action on annexation requests.

§                     This property is located within Charlotte’s extraterritorial jurisdiction.

§                     The area proposed for annexation shares boundaries with current City limits.

§                     Annexation of this area will allow for more orderly development review, extension of City services, capital investments, and future annexation processes.

§                     The 94.334-acre “Retreat at Cameron Commons” site is located along the Cabarrus County Line, north of University City Boulevard in Mecklenburg County.

-                     The site is currently vacant.

-                     The petitioner has plans to develop 155 single family homes on the site.

-                     The property is zoned R-4, which allows for single family residential uses up to four dwelling units per acre.

-                     The property is located immediately adjacent to City Council District 4.

-                     The petitioned area consists of six parcels; parcel identification numbers: 051-301-79, 051-221-77, 051-301-78, 051-301-80, 051-301-77, and 051-081-28.

 

Consistency with City Council Policies

§                     The annexation is consistent with voluntary annexation policy approved by City Council on March 24, 2003; more specifically this annexation:

-                     Is consistent with the policy to not adversely affect the City’s ability to undertake future annexations;

-                     Is consistent with the policy to not have undue negative impact on City finances or services;

-                     Is consistent with the policy to not create unincorporated areas that will be encompassed by new City limits.
