CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Charlotte City Council members are delaying the vote on a controversial Walgreens in Dilworth.
The proposed drugstore would replace a house on the corner of Kenilworth and Morehead.
The community is divided on the project. Some say it would be a welcome addition, but others say the Walgreens would hurt the neighborhood's historic character.
“I think it's a bad idea. There's too many places in Charlotte where you can put a Walgreens,” Chris Bankhead said.
“I think it'd be good for the people because it's easy access to their medicine (and) pharmacy. It's a store right beside the hospital,” said Kumar Smith.
The council postponed the vote because not enough members were there to vote Monday night. It's rescheduled for Nov. 26.
