Charlotte Zoning Meeting · City Council Zoning Meeting on 2026-04-20 5:00 PM - Apr 20, 2026 · 20 Apr 2026 meeting

I think it was Mr. Triffin?

Yes.

Okay, could you please come down and talk about your 21 points?

Thank you.

So it's already been spoken into the room that I did go out and meet with the neighbors and luckily had my boots on and went tromping through the woods.

I will say that a couple of things that I take away from both that

exchange and then looking at what we've got here is a real concern around the grade of the building and the changes that are going to be necessary.

It was a pretty steep slope down into there.

And when you're envisaging coming up out of that development, and God forbid, you should try to make a left-hand turn.

Hopefully, we're already looking at some restrictions that would make that right in, right out.

But coming up, you really don't have visibility

And the proximity of that curve is something that has not really been changed.

And so that does give me pause.

I am, as you can see from some of the votes tonight, particularly supportive of dense housing.

I think I made that very abundantly clear to the neighbors that I don't necessarily think that this is only a single-family house situation, but it may well be a bit less dense than what you've got there, particularly if we are looking at what I think you've said or what the –

Entitlement services suggested with a 55-foot setback at the front, that really does begin to give me some pause about what that looks like for that buffered area and the distinctions that are going to be made between that area and the creek and just some of the infrastructure that is going to be necessary to really bring that grade and address what I think is going to be a whole lot of runoff.

So I do have some concerns.

I'm appreciative of everybody who's come out.

And again, I guess I would throw out to you, are we wedded to this 55 feet from Wendover Road?

And while I do appreciate this, the one that's up on the screen that shows sort of a cross-section, I really would love to appreciate from the developer what you see as great improvements that are going to be necessary for you to do the vision that you've got out there.
