Members have been diving into the 2040 Comp Plan and engaging in conversations to understand what the Plan includes and how it will impact the commercial real estate industry. Last month, Larry Shaheen (The McIntosh Law Group) provided members with an overview of the Plan as well as the areas of concern for our industry. Then, members met face-to-face (virtually) with Council Member Ed Driggs to have a discussion about what is happening at City Council as well as speak about the Comp Plan’s impacts on commercial development, our community, and our members. We encourage members to take a look at the many resources available and get involved to be a voice for CRE as these policies unfold.

 

In addition to the Mentorship Program, where DLs have the opportunity to meet one-one-one with CRE industry leaders, NAIOP Charlotte if offering a new program exclusively for Developing Leaders to meet other DLs and grow their professional network in Charlotte’s commercial real estate community. Registration for the program opens this week! Click here for more information.
