The Charlotte City Council adopted a city-wide text amendment to the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) to implement and support goals of the Charlotte Future 2040 Comprehensive Plan. This semi-annual maintenance update modifies, adds, and deletes provisions across 26 of the UDO's 39 Articles to reflect best practices, correct scrivener’s errors, and address implementation challenges. The amendment clarifies applicability of the North Carolina Fire Code appendices and general definitions—including commercial vehicles and affordable housing provisions in the bonus menu. Frontage and zoning district standards were refined with new Section 3.6 for multi-frontage lots and clarifications on pedestrian entries and curb locations. Special purpose and overlay districts received updated purpose statements and certificate of appropriateness language for historic areas. Use permissions were adjusted to add multi-family attached and stacked dwellings in OFC and OG districts with prescribed conditions and introduce a Research and Development – With Light Industrial use. Accessory regulations were streamlined by removing setback differentials and permit requirements for donation boxes and prohibiting fabric screening on chain link fencing. Parking tables were updated with clearer guidance, new minimums and maximums for financial institutions and retail goods establishments, and corrected EV charging calculations. Landscape and tree preservation standards were reorganized and clarified, and administrative boards now require residency within Charlotte or its ETJ.
