City-Initiated Rezoning - Downtown — Historic trolley barn and museum, Belmont Rail Trail greenway, and city-owned civic uses in Belmont, NC

The City of Belmont seeks to rezone a 2.68-acre downtown parcel from Business Campus Development (BC-D) to Downtown District (DD) following its recent acquisition from NCDOT. The rezoning would align the property's zoning with its intended use as a city-owned civic asset and support future development of a historic trolley barn museum and greenway trail. Downtown District zoning permits residential, hospitality, commercial, and civic uses without many of the parking and design restrictions of the BC-D district.
