Charterwood, a mixed-use development proposed for Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard
The proposed project includes six buildings with up to 154 condos and townhouses and 73,000-sqft of office and retail space on 15.7-acres
The tallest building is proposed to be six stories, or 78 feet tall, about the same height as Aloft Hotel in East 54. The Chapel Hill Planning Board voted 7-1 to recommend approval of the project, but only if the maximum height was reduced to 54 feet.
Because neighbors have presented a valid protest petition, the project will require a three-quarters majority of council votes for approval. The petition presented by neighbors of the project represents owners of 43 percent of the property within a 100-foot buffer of the proposed rezoning.
