Charlotte to add 145 affordable housing units with city funding

CHARLOTTE — The Charlotte City Council may be spending $4 million to help a nonprofit create 145 affordable housing units.

Monday night, city leaders will vote on whether to give $4.1 million to historic West End partners.

The units would be built on West Trade Street next to the streetcar.

The money comes from the Housing Trust Fund and fee-in-lieu funds that developers pay into to increase density.
