  • Midtown Citizen Advisory Council Meeting featuring At-Large Candidates

    Eastgate Park 4200 Quail Hollow Dr,, Raleigh, NC

    I have a few updates for you since our last meeting in January. First, early voting has begun for the upcoming primary. As many of you know, the only Council seats that will be on the ballot will be the At-Large and District C candidates since there are more than two people running for each seat. With that in mind, I think it is important to know the candidates so that you can make an informed choice when voting. Our February meeting will focus on the At-Large Candidates with an in-person discussion with all six candidates that are running for that position. This will be an excellent opportunity for a community discussion on City and local priorities, centering on affordability, transportation, and density. The agenda is appended for your convenience. Please do not miss this opportunity to have an open discussion with the candidates. Try to attend in person, although the meeting will follow our hybrid model of both in-person and virtual participation using Zoom. The Zoom link for the meeting is as follows: Join our Cloud HD Video Meeting us02web.zoom.us I am also providing another reminder about the feedback request for the planned Green Street Phase 1 treatment of Quail Hollow Drive, starting with the cycle track application on […]

  • Five Points CAC Virtual Meeting

    Join Zoom Meeting https://us06web.zoom.us/j/84111555416  Hi Five Points:   Please plan to join us for the March 9th Five Points CAC Zoom meeting.     Captain J.R. Manson will give us a police report for recent crime in the Five Points area.   Then we will be joined by Sgt. Madeline Horner and other members of the Raleigh ACORNS (Addressing Crises through Outreach, Referrals, Networking, and Service) team. ACORNS is a proactive unit that works with residents experiencing crises and connects them with appropriate community resources. The team pairs social workers with law enforcement officers to provide support using the most appropriate and least intrusive interventions possible. This discussion is the follow-up to Captain Manson’s safety presentation in January. During that meeting, there was interest in hosting a special follow-up session in February. However, the weather issues in early February created scheduling challenges for me—and likely for others as well. Planning a special meeting later in February would have placed it very close to our regular March meeting, which is relatively early in March. As a result, I decided it would be best to continue the discussion at our March meeting.   Also at our meeting, we will be joined by Brian Smith, […]
