Will your Charlotte neighborhood trees be clear-cut for billboards? Here's a list

Charlotte and state leaders are requesting that billboard owners put a pause on cutting trees to improve visibility to their signs. The request comes after Adams Outdoor Advertising cut down a 500-foot stretch of trees — perhaps more than 100 trees — to improve visibility of a billboard along U.S. 74 or Independence Boulevard in Plaza Midwood. The tree clearing caused a massive outcry from local businesses owners along Commonwealth Avenue and residents. Business owners said the trees blocked out noise and pollution coming from the highway. There are 40 active permits around Mecklenburg County where Adams Outdoor and Lamar Outdoor either intend to cut trees or have already. The Plaza Midwood site is one of those places. Here’s a list of the active permits that were issued between July 14 and Nov. 2:

Charlotte tops wishlist for Americans looking to move, study says

A house sitting company has named Charlotte the destination people most want to move to in the United States. TrustedHousesitters, a house and pet sitting company, compared domestic migration statistics with relocation-related Google search data to determine the places people most want to move. Charlotte tops the list, followed by Austin and Dallas in Texas. Honolulu, Hawaii was ranked the highest for travel. The company found U.S. Google searches for “moving to Charlotte” and “living in Charlotte” average a combined 1,890 monthly. The company compared this to data on domestic migration. TrustedHousesitters used Census Bureau data to identify the metro area gained about 24,400 domestic migrants in 2024-25, which was the largest increase among the destinations analyzed. The area’s latest annual gain equates to 8.4 people per 1,000 residents, according to the study. Charlotte was also named the most underrated city in America in 2026 by Clever Real Estate, the Charlotte Observer previously reported. So, how many people are actually moving here?

Will Charlotte's bond money help your neighborhood? We tried to find out

The city of Charlotte has $425 million in general obligation bonds to fund housing, transportation and neighborhood infrastructure projects, thanks to voters approving the measures Nov. 3. It’s the largest bond request the city has ever made. So, what is the money being spent on? Some of the funding is earmarked and identified on the city’s website, but other allocations are described vaguely. And when asked for specific project lists or targeted neighborhoods, the city pointed towards its website and did not provide further context. And by state law , the city doesn’t have to list specific locations of projects. Councilmember Dimple Ajmera said the vagueness stems from a need for flexibility. “Some projects are identified today while others will be selected through a process based on community needs and available opportunities,” Ajmera said. But without a specified list of projects, how can Charlotteans keep track? Charlotte’s 2026 bond referendums City bonds are long-term loans, sometimes 10-year periods, where the debt and the interest are paid back through sales and property taxes, along with other local funding sources. They are the primary way municipalities pay for large-scale projects. Typically, Charlotte requests these bonds every two years and voters historically approve
