Marinel Ubaldo Streit, Regional Field Director, PowerUp NC | NCLCVF, has alerted Livable Raleigh to the upcoming rezoning case Z-11-25:

The rezoning case Z-11-25 (2230 S New Hope Rd) proposes development on a reforested, environmentally sensitive floodplain area. This forest is one of the last natural buffers remaining along New Hope Road, protecting nearby neighborhoods from flooding, erosion, and extreme heat.

The Planning Commission has already recommended DENIAL of this case, recognizing the significant environmental and community risks.
