Hybrid Midtown Citizens Advisory Council Meeting
2026-05-18 19:00 - 21:00 | Eastgate Park, 4200 Quail Hollow Dr,, Raleigh, NC, 27609
I hope that everyone had a great weekend and wonderful Mother’s Day.

Please note the date of our meeting. We are meeting a week earlier than normal (May 18) due to the Memorial Holiday the following Monday. Please mark your calendars accordingly.
The agenda for the May meeting and minutes from the April meeting are appended.

In addition to our police report and Councilor updates, we are pleased to have representatives of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at NC State at our meeting this month. OLLI at NC State is a membership-based organization offering courses, lectures, study trips, and events for adults 50 and older. Founded in 1991 as the Encore Program for Lifelong Enrichment, they received an endowment from the Bernard Osher Foundation in 2014 and became the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at NC State. Here is a link to their organization for further information: https://olli.lifelonglearning.ncsu.edu/about-us/

In addition, we will be introduced to a NCDOT beta mapping tool called “Projects Near Me” that will be having its soft launch this month, followed by going live this summer. The status of transportation projects occurring across the state. The tool consolidates project information into a single accessible location, helping users quickly identify nearby NCDOT projects, understand their status, and access relevant details without needing to navigate multiple systems or contact the Department. Here is a preliminary link to the mapping tool:
https://www.ncdot.gov/projects/ProjectsNearMe/

One last important matter that is of utmost importance to the sustainability of the Midtown CAC. Our last election was in June 2023. We have several vacancies in the administration of our CAC that need to be filled. Kathleen Cody will not be continuing in her vital role as our Secretary / Media Specialist. We also need both Chairman, Vice Chairman and Liaisons for succession planning for now and in the future. The intent is to have an election for new officers in June. If you are interested, please contact me within the month so we can generate a slate of candidates for the June meeting.
Hope to see everyone next Monday evening.
Thank you,
Larry

Organizing meeting for restarting Raleigh’s Central CAC
2026-06-06 14:00 - 16:00 | John P. (Top) Greene, 401 MLK Jr Blvd, Raleigh
Hi neighbors,
Our first organizing meeting for restarting Raleigh’s Central CAC (Citizen Advisory Council) is a week from today on Saturday, June 6 at 2:00 PM in the John P. “Top” Greene African American Cultural Center (401 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.).
Attached is an updated PDF about restarting the Central CAC. The PDF has more information and links. Please email the PDF to your friends and neighbors. Also consider printing it out and dropping it off to them as well.

We’re starting to build momentum in our reactivation efforts! Our second organizing meeting on July 18 will include the president of Shaw University and hopefully Raleigh’s Mayor Janet Cowell (once she confirms her plans).

We hope to create a new Central CAC board that reflects the diversity of our community. So please get involved and consider being nominated to a board position. It’s a great way to meet your neighbors!

Please respond to Mike Motsinger (michael.motsinger@gmail.com) and Brian Rineer (brineer@bellsouth.net) and let them know about your interest in restarting the Central CAC. Also let them know if you would like to serve on the new Central CAC board and be nominated to a particular position.

Thanks for helping and being involved in your community,
Your neighbors and the RCAC team
