Streets Map to Implement Transit Oriented Development Zoning Along Blue Line Action: Adopt the Streets Map to implement Transit Oriented Development for the Blue Line. Committee Chair: Julie Eiselt, Transportation and Planning Staff Resource(s): Liz Babson, Transportation Johanna Quinn, Transportation Tracy Newsome, Transportation Explanation § The Streets Map is a key implementation tool for the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Zoning Ordinance, which was adopted by City Council on April 15, 2019. § The Streets Map sets the vision for the public realm within TOD by assigning street classifications and setting ultimate curb locations for Complete Streets in the TOD areas around the Blue Line. § Street classification and curb location are used to determine design requirements such as setbacks, building placement, streetscapes, and other key design elements related to street frontages, providing predictability, consistency, and clarity for development. § Until the Streets Map is adopted, TOD districts rely on area plans, some of which do not include Charlotte’s most recently adopted Complete Streets design policies. § The Streets Map will also form the basis for the design of capital projects along streets. Background § The Streets Map is intended to complement the adopted TOD Ordinance to create safe and comfortable Complete Streets for all users and to provide multi-modal access to transit stations and the destinations around those stations. § The information on the Streets Map reflects previously-adopted policies from the Urban Street Design Guidelines (USDG), the Transportation Action Plan, Charlotte WALKS, and Charlotte BIKES. § The Streets Map includes recommendations for the cross section of each arterial street in TOD around the Blue Line. These recommendations include number of lanes, bicycle facilities, and on-street parking and center space where applicable. Community Input § The Streets Map incorporates significant public comment from previously-adopted City Council policies. Thousands of people commented during the adoption of USDG, TAP, Charlotte WALKS (adopted 2017), and Charlotte BIKES (adopted 2017). § Information about the Streets Map has been provided across the City to community and advocacy groups including the Bicycle Advisory Committee, the Ordinance Advisory Committee (OAC), Town Halls, and Biketoberfest 2018. § Staff has also met with the broader community as part of the TOD Zoning Alignment, attending all property owner and community meetings. The TOD Zoning Alignment and Streets Map are two key implementation tools for the recently adopted TOD districts. § A Streets Map Stakeholder Group was formed to address questions from the OAC and to have a more in-depth conversation about the Streets Map. The Stakeholders were made up of developer and advocacy group representatives and met a total of three times. § The city collected public comments on the map June through September, and at the October 14, 2019 Council Business Meeting, Council heard public comments on the Streets Map. § The Streets Map is available at <https://charlottenc.gov/Projects/Pages/StreetsMap.aspx>. Committee Discussion City of Charlotte Page 13 Printed on 10/28/2019 City Council Business Meeting Meeting Agenda October 28, 2019 § The Streets Map was presented to the Transportation and Planning Committee on July 22 and September 23, 2019. At the meeting on September 23, 2019, the Committee voted to recommend that the Streets Map be presented to full City Council for public comment. § During the City Council Strategy Session on October 7, 2019, information was provided about the Streets Map including the content, development, and application of the Streets Map to TOD. 16.

Staff Resource(s): David Czerr, Charlotte Water Ron Hargrove, Charlotte Water Explanation § This agreement will allow the city to accept wastewater flow from the City of Belmont and allows for the construction of a sewer lift station and dual sanitary sewer lines under the Catawba River. § The agreement supports the Stowe Regional Water Resource Recovery Facility (Stowe RWRRF) (adjacent to Council Districts 2 and 3) and associated regional infrastructure, outlined in a presentation to City Council on April 9, 2018. § On May 13, 2013, Council approved a Memorandum of Agreement and authorized a Nutrient Allocation Purchase Agreement with the City of Belmont. § On February 13, 2017, Council approved a professional services agreement for a Preliminary Engineering Report that provided preliminary design for the Stowe RWRRF and associated Belmont and Mount Holly facilities. § On October 7, 2019, the Belmont City Council approved the Interlocal Agreement. § The design and construction contracts for the Belmont and Mount Holly facilities as well as the Stowe RWRRF will be presented to Council at future meetings. Background § The city’s studies indicated the need for a wastewater treatment plant near the confluence of Long Creek and Lake Wylie. It also indicated that wastewater treatment needs for Mecklenburg County, the City of Belmont, and the City of Mount Holly could be best met through a regional partnership. § The Stowe RWRRF will consolidate three significant discharge permits for existing wastewater treatment plants for Belmont, Mount Holly, and Clariant Corporation, and will require Belmont and Mount Holly to decommission their existing plants.

Reference - Property Acquisitions and Condemnations § The City has negotiated in good faith to acquire the properties set forth below § For acquisitions, the property owner and staff have agreed on a price based on appraisals and/or estimates. § In the case of condemnations, the value was established by an independent, certified appraisal followed by a third-party appraisal review. § Real Estate staff diligently attempts to contact all property owners by: - Sending introductory letters via regular and certified mail, - Making several site visits, - Leaving door hangers and business cards, - Seeking information from neighbors, - Searching the internet, - Obtaining title abstracts, and - Leaving voice messages. § For most condemnation cases, City staff and the property owner(s) have been unable to reach a settlement. In some cases, condemnation is necessary to ensure a clear title to the property. § If the City Council approves the resolutions, the City Attorney’s office will initiate condemnation proceedings. As part of the condemnation process, real estate staff and the City Attorney’s Office will continue to negotiate, including court-mandated mediation, in an attempt to resolve the matter. Most condemnation cases are settled by the parties prior to going to court. § If a settlement cannot be reached, the case will proceed to a trial before a judge or jury to determine “just compensation.” § Full text of each resolution is on file with the City Clerk’s Office. § The definition of easement is a right created by grant, reservation, agreement, prescription, or necessary implication, which one has in the land of another, it is either for the benefit of land, such as right to cross A to get to B, or “in gross,” such as public utility easement. § The term “fee simple” is a synonym for ownership and is an estate under which the owner is entitled to unrestricted powers to dispose of the property, and which can be left by will or inherited.

Reference - Property Transaction Process Property Transaction Process Following City Council Approval for Condemnation The following overview is intended to provide further explanation for the process of property transactions that are approved by City Council for condemnation. Approximately six weeks of preparatory work is required before the condemnation lawsuit is filed. During this time, City staff continues to negotiate with the property owner in an effort to reach a mutual settlement. § If a settlement is reached, the condemnation process is stopped, and the property transaction proceeds to a real estate closing. § If a settlement cannot be reached, the condemnation lawsuit is filed. Even after filing, negotiations continue between the property owner and the City’s legal representative. Filing of the condemnation documents allows: - The City to gain access and title to the subject property so the capital project can proceed on schedule. - The City to deposit the appraised value of the property in an escrow account with the Clerk of Court. These funds may be withdrawn by the property owner immediately upon filing, and at any time thereafter, with the understanding that additional funds transfer may be required at the time of final settlement or at the conclusion of litigation. § If a condemnation lawsuit is filed, the final trial may not occur for 18 to 24 months; however, a vast majority of the cases settle prior to final trial. The City’s condemnation attorney remains actively engaged with the property owner to continue negotiations throughout litigation. - North Carolina law requires that all condemnation cases go through formal non-binding mediation, at which an independent certified mediator attempts to facilitate a successful settlement. For the minority of cases that do not settle, the property owner has the right to a trial by judge or jury in order to determine the amount of compensation the property owner will receive.
