The first rezoning will enable the development of a 90-townhome division along Mount Holly Road near Mt. Holly-Huntersville Road. The second rezoning is for 64 units as part of the Oaklake Townhomes project, which is a three-phase development near the intersection of Mt. Holly-Huntersville and Oakdale roads.
Councilwoman LaWana Mayfield was the only member to vote against both rezoning requests, The Charlotte Observer reports.
