Explanation
§ Public hearings to obtain community input are required prior to City Council taking action on annexation requests.
§ A petition has been received from the owners of this 32.29-acre property located southeast of North Tryon Street, east of Trevi Village Boulevard, and west of La Paz Place in northeastern Mecklenburg County.
§ The property is owned by Peggy Love Taylor.
§ The petitioner is High Street District Development, Inc.
§ The property is currently occupied with single-family dwellings and accessory structures that will be removed prior to redevelopment.
§ The annexation area is zoned N2-A(CD) (Neighborhood 2-A, Conditional).
- Rezoning petition 2025-049 rezoned the site from N1-A (Neighborhood 1-A) to N2-A(CD) (Neighborhood 2-A, Conditional) in September of 2025. The site’s entitlements under the approved Neighborhood 2-A rezoning site plan allow for the development of multi-family attached dwelling units.
§ The petitioned area consists of two parcels: parcel identification numbers 051-091-05 and 051-091-08.
§ The property is located within Charlotte’s extraterritorial jurisdiction and shares boundaries with current city limits.
§ Intent of the annexation is to extend municipal services to facilitate redevelopment of the site with 190 duplex, triplex, quadraplex, or multi-family attached units.
§ In the evaluation of this annexation area, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Stormwater Services, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, Charlotte Department of Transportation, and Charlotte Solid Waste Services noted that this annexation area would have noted that this annexation area would have minimal to no impacts to the departments’ resources.
§ In reviewing the area’s current and future land use, the Charlotte Fire Department noted that the site is within the Effective Response Force travel time standards and provided advisory considerations.
§ The potential revenue generated from this annexation area is projected to exceed the estimated cost of extending municipal services to the site.
Consistency with City Council Policies
§ The annexation is consistent with city voluntary annexation policy approved by the City Council on March 24, 2003; more specifically this annexation:
- Will not adversely affect the city’s ability to undertake future annexations;
- Will not have undue negative impact on city finances or services; and
- Will not result in a situation where unincorporated areas will be encompassed by new city limits.
