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 28.0637-acre property located along the south side of Miranda Road and west of Beatties Ford Road in Mecklenburg County.
§ The property is owned by JDSI, LLC.
§ The site is currently vacant with some single-family residential uses and is zoned R-3, which allows for single-family residential uses up to three dwelling units per acre.
§ The petitioned area consists of seven parcels; parcel identification numbers: 037-081-05, 037-081-30, 037-081-29, 037-081-19, 037-081-16, 037-081-25, and 037-081-21.
§ The property is located within Charlotte’s extraterritorial jurisdiction and shares a boundary with current city limits.
§ The intent of the annexation is to enable the development of 121 single-family homes on the site as part of a larger development that extends across another parcel already within city limits.
Consistent 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.
