🚉 Charlotte Area Transit System Interim CEO Brent Cagle told The Charlotte Observer what's ahead: upgrades to the CTC, plus work on the transit system plan ahead of a possible one-cent sales tax vote in November 2025. What changes do YOU want to see from CATS next year? charlotteobserver.com/news/local/art…

🚶🏾 We're excited to see this project take shape. Charlotte urgently needs safer options (community wide) for people to move around without relying on cars — something that's been made more difficult on the outskirts of uptown because of I-277. What do y'all think about the plan?

🧻 Spotted in Charlotte's South End: Sidewalk blocked ... for porta-potties!? (Sidewalk on the other side was closed, too). This is why we need City of Charlotte to review sidewalk closure policies. These detours force pedestrians into traffic.

📢 Our director of engagement and impact, Meg Fencil, spoke with Jordan Kudisch about how Trump administration cuts to environmental funding could impact equity in our region. One big thing is tree canopy funding: Fewer trees mean more vulnerable neighborhoods.

🌿 Sign the Catawba Riverkeeper's petition for parking lot reform! More info: bit.ly/4ijZFUU. NC lawmakers introduced House Bill 369 on March 11 to remove mandated parking requirements statewide.
