The Charlotte City Council has approved Rezoning Petition 2024-111 by The Presbyterian Home at Charlotte, Inc., amending zoning regulations for the 27.27-acre Sharon Towers senior living campus. The rezoning maintains existing entitlements while consolidating previous rezoning approvals into a unified plan. The request includes minor modifications such as combining two buildings into one, increasing the permitted height in certain areas, and updating site plan requirements. The redevelopment will support 466 independent living units, 96 skilled nursing units, 40 assisted living units, and 60,000 square feet of non-residential space. The project aligns with the city’s institutional and mixed-use development goals, ensuring enhanced senior care services while integrating community amenities and pedestrian connectivity.
This rezoning supports the expansion of senior housing options in Charlotte, ensuring continuity of care for aging residents. It also enhances community engagement by maintaining open spaces and improving accessibility within a well-established senior living campus.
