The Charlotte Planning Board issued an unfavorable recommendation (8-2) for a rezoning request at 1210 East Blvd. The applicant, The Drakeford Company, LLC, sought to rezone the parcel from B-1 (Neighborhood Business) to MUDD-O (Mixed-Use Development District – Optional). The proposed project involved a four-story building featuring 10 residential units and 3,186 square feet of ground-floor retail space. This decision highlights concerns that led to the recommendation for denial, which will now be forwarded to the City Council for final consideration.
