Good morning, y'all. There are quite a few opportunities this week to learn more about the #CLT2040Plan. I've created a public folder with source material about the plan that I encourage you to read here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/…

This plan is more than folx are reducing it to.

@BPCCharlotte

There is a forum that the @BPCCharlotte is hosting where @winnerspath, @CLTgov Asst. City Manager and City Planner, will share with us tomorrow night, 3-17-21, at 6:30 register here: bpc-charlotte.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=…

There are a lot of opportunities for you to engage this plan, the leaders behind the plan, and the elected officials who are tasked with voting for the plan. Please find out how and where you can get involved here: cltfuture2040.com/events/

There are TWO today--get informed.

As always, the virtual open house can be accessed 24/7 here (through 4/26) here: openhouse.cltfuture2040plan.com

@TheAtlantic

Good morning, friends. Here is your daily reading on the benefits of elimination single-family only (R1) zoning. This time it's from @TheAtlantic. Please educate yourself find out what you can't or can't tolerate. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

I can't stress enough how important it is for you to interrogate motives--yours, mine, and everyone's--in this debate. Many Council members (Black and white) live in "beautiful" R1 zoned neighborhoods they want to protect. Pay attention the the Myers Park and Eastover HOAs.

Just as in the debate about prematurely swinging open the doors of schools, folx will couch their objection to elimination R1 zoning to something more popular than NIMBYism, but when it's all stripped away, I think this is an argument that remains.
