Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles leads a discussion about the elimination of single-family only zoning Monday night.
Charlotte City Council members on Monday hit the brakes on the city’s ambitious 2040 Comprehensive Plan over its call to eliminate single-family-only zoning.
The city has been holding public meetings about the plan for months. But as the deadline approaches to approve it, some council members are hearing concerns from residents who are worried about the changes.
“I hope this is crystal clear to you that there is no path that this can happen in the next 60 days,” said Republican council member Tariq Bokhari to City Manager Marcus Jones on Monday. “We have staff that’s done a lot of hard work. But I think it’s become crystal clear that a lot of work has been focused on things that it should have not been.”
