Success flows through knowledge, so we inform our membership about the most relevant issues and policies with in-depth information and links to all pertinent resources. We focus primarily on the relevance and content of the recently adopted Charlotte UDO (Unified Development Ordinance) and share expert as well as third-party resources to help inform the decisions we must make to improve HOUSING AFFORDABILITY.
The Positive Outcome We Want To Achieve:
The significance of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), that went into effect on June 1, 2023, is a landmark document. Our goal is to ensure ongoing improvements, changes, edits, and additions come to light using not only the spirit of cooperation, but will be manifested with an eye on watching this translated to real world issues. As the voice of advocacy for our industry, we are keeping a keen and watchful eye on changes as they happen. Furthermore, an outcome that serves all is touched by all, so we encourage all those in our membership to read, review, and stay current with this document. Link to the UDO document here.
What We’re Doing Now
As has been mentioned earlier in this space, there are “clean-up” items in the ordinance that need to be addressed along with other policy matters that need further attention. In an effort to help you track these requests for changes, and submit your own for requesting amendments to the UDO as issues arise, we have created a form for our members To download that form, click here.
