Cut-through traffic from Oak Grove Hill Phase 3 road removal
Huntersville
Summary
Removing the Carver Avenue connection to Mount Holly-Huntersville Road means traffic from the new development and existing phases may funnel through Westminster Park and Wedgewood Drive, which lack sidewalks and are narrow. The board ultimately recommended denial over this connectivity concern.

Impact analysis
The developer says the road connection costs so much (roughly $2 million with a $326,000 stream-mitigation fee) that the project dies without this revision — but residents bear the traffic cost instead.
If approved, the developer gains a viable project and one road connection; neighbors fear they'd shoulder the cut-through traffic.
Westminster Park and Wedgewood Drive residents face more cut-through traffic on streets with no sidewalks, curbs, or room for either.
