Mecklenburg County's Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), adopted in 2023, restructured the local zoning framework and created new transit-oriented development categories along the LYNX Blue Line and Silver Line corridors. The County Commission, Charlotte City Council, and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Planning Commission handle the bulk of rezoning and conditional use applications. Suburban towns like Huntersville, Cornelius, and Matthews generate steady rezoning activity on the metro fringe, while urban infill proposals concentrate in South End, NoDa, and the Camp North End area.
