Residents turn to old tool in legal fight to block duplex, triplex construction
Some Charlotte residents are turning to the courts to try and restrict the building of duplexes and triplexes in their neighborhoods. Under the city’s new development rules, those multifamily units are allowed to be built in areas previously zoned only for single-family homes. City leaders adopted the new rules three years ago to guide Charlotte’s growth and encourage more density. For more, we turn to Ashley Fahey of The Charlotte Ledger for our segment, BizWorthy.

THC drinks could soon be banned in NC. How will it affect Charlotte businesses?
For some, a night out no longer has to end with a cocktail, a beer or a glass of wine. A can of THC-infused seltzer offers another way to enjoy the festivities, without necessarily drinking alcohol. The beverages, which contain tetrahydrocannabinol — the primary psychoactive compound found in cannabis that produces a “high” — appeal to customers who are sober-curious, abstaining from alcohol or want to try something different. But their presence in the North Carolina beverage market is facing an uncertain future as lawmakers consider tighter restrictions on hemp products. A federal law originally scheduled to take effect Nov. 12 would narrow the definition of legal hemp, eliminating most THC-infused drinks containing more than 0.4 milligrams of THC per container. Congress has since delayed those restrictions until Dec. 11. North Carolina lawmakers have also considered similar restrictions through House Bill 328 , but the bill remains stalled in the House Rules Committee. Rep. Tricia Cotham, who was a co-sponsor of the bill, lost her re-election bid earlier this month, meaning passage of the bill could be more difficult with Democrats set to take control of the House in January, The News & Observer reported .
