Leaders of Charlotte's major housing and social service nonprofits and some neighborhoods are speaking out in favor of the city's proposed 2040 Comprehensive Plan. They say it will expand affordable housing and correct past inequities.
The 2040 Plan has faced criticism from some developers and residents since it was introduced last fall. They're concerned that the vision for future development in Charlotte would threaten the character of neighborhoods, especially because of a proposal to allow multifamily housing in areas currently zoned single-family only.
