“The arc is where most black, brown and low-income communities live.
It has the
lowest life expectancy, lots of industrial uses and (least amount of) tree

measure the achievement of equitable growth.
“One of the
plan goals is achieving housing diversity through Charlotte, which means
rezoning the city to allow different forms of housing everywhere including in
the wedge.
This means
duplexes, triplexes and townhouses.
While that
would help achieve affordable housing goals, it also helps to undo the legacy
of segregation.”
