The rezoning petition 2025-053 proposes a site plan amendment to an existing petition (2014-069) to increase entitlements for medical office and health institution uses within the Novant Health campus. The 34.03-acre site is located north of Albemarle Road, west of Novant Health Parkway, and east of I-485 in Charlotte, NC. The current zoning of B-1(CD) and O-2(CD) is proposed to be amended to B-1(CD)SPA and O-2(CD)SPA. The amendment seeks to increase the allowable square footage for medical office, retail, restaurant, and personal service uses from 37,000 to 59,500 square feet. This expansion aims to reinforce the site's established institutional and healthcare character. Staff recommends approval subject to the resolution of requested technical revisions, affirming its consistency with the 2040 Policy Map's Campus Place Type recommendation.
