The petition proposes to rezone approximately 1.16 acres located east of Rozzelles Ferry Road, north of Honeywood Avenue, and west of Brookshire Boulevard in Charlotte, NC. The current zoning is I-1(CD) (Light Industrial, Conditional) and the proposed zoning is ML-1(CD) (Manufacturing & Logistics-1, Conditional). This rezoning aims to allow most uses permitted by-right and under prescribed conditions in the ML-1 district while specifically prohibiting billboard advertising. The site is currently developed with a commercial building that operates as a pet crematory. Staff recommended approval of the petition despite its inconsistency with the 2040 Policy Map's Innovation Mixed-Use Place Type. The rationale for approval stated that rezoning to ML-1 would bring the site up to date with the current UDO without increasing intensity and that the ML-1 district accommodates light industrial uses compatible with the area's proximity to ML-2 districts. The Zoning Committee voted 5-0 on March 4, 2025, to recommend approval of the petition, adopting the staff's consistency statement. The final action by the City Council occurred on March 17, 2025.
