SR-1315 — Mixed-use development with residential units (multifamily, townhomes, single-family attached and detached), non-residential uses, and active open space
This is a large 172.3-acre mixed-use rezoning for Monroe Village, a planned development with three distinct areas: commercial/mixed-use (up to 125,000 SF), residential with some commercial (up to 16,000 SF), and single-family detached homes. The development includes architectural standards, building height limits (up to 3 stories), and multiple access points, which could significantly impact nearby properties and transportation infrastructure.
PLMA-2027-00010 — rezoning
This rezoning request seeks to convert 1.02 acres from Regional Corridor Mixed-Use to Residential Low Density for single-family residential use. The proposal is inconsistent with the City's Land Use and Transportation Plan, which designates this area as a Regional Mixed-Use Center intended for retail, employment, high-density residential, and other mixed uses near major highways.
PLMA-2027 — rezoning
This rezoning case proposes changing a 1.2-acre parcel at 202 Walnut Street from Residential High Density to Residential Medium Density zoning. The change is consistent with the city's Land Use and Transportation Plan designation of Traditional Development, which prioritizes residential uses. Developers should note this represents a downzoning that would reduce residential density on the property.
PLMA-2026-00201 — Residential
A 3.097-acre property on Fowler Road is being rezoned from Regional Corridor Mixed-Use (RC-MX) to Residential Low Density (RLD), consistent with the Land Use and Transportation Plan's designation of the area as Suburban with residential as a priority use. The rezoning would convert this property from mixed-use development potential to single-family residential, affecting surrounding residential parcels in Monroe.
PLMA-2026-00134 — Single-family residential
This rezoning request seeks to change a 9-acre property from Regional Corridor Mixed-Use to Residential Low Density for single-family residential use. The Planning Board's resolution denies the request because it conflicts with the Land Use and Transportation Plan, which designates this area as a Regional Mixed-Use Center intended for retail, employment, high-density residential, and mixed-use development rather than single-family homes. The denial creates uncertainty about future development of this strategically-located property near major highways.
PLMA-2026-00100 — rezoning
This case involves rezoning 3.382 acres from Neighborhood Business to General Industrial at 4301 Old Charlotte Highway. The proposal conflicts with the Land Use and Transportation Plan, which designates this Suburban area for residential development, not industrial uses. Developers should monitor this case as it may affect commercial/industrial development feasibility and neighborhood compatibility standards in this corridor.
BR-0049 — other
BR-0049 concerns the Concord Avenue Bridge project with an estimated cost of $136,988.46 and projected completion in 2027; betterment costs are needed in Summer 2029.
