The Charlotte City Council approved the condemnation of easements on a property located at 2831 Flintridge Drive, owned by Dai C. Cheng and Ruiying L. Cheng. The decision was made after the city was unable to reach a voluntary agreement with the property owners. The total parcel area is 10,500 square feet (0.241 acres). The city is acquiring a 3,618 square foot (0.083 acre) storm drainage easement and a 755 square foot (0.017 acre) temporary construction easement, totaling 4,373 square feet (0.100 acres) in easements. The appraised value for these easements is $36,050. The recommendation was to proceed with condemnation while continuing negotiations and offering mediation, with just compensation to be determined by the court if necessary. The property is currently zoned N1-B, Neighborhood 1-B, and no structures are impacted, only trees.
