Trees and the Comprehensive Plan
2025-03-11 18:00 - 20:00 | Durant Nature Preserve, 3237 Spottswood Street, Raleigh, 27615
Trees were selected as one of six special topics for focus as Raleigh begins the process of updating its Comprehensive Plan. This document is extremely important in guiding Raleigh’s growth as all zoning and development regulations are required by North Carolina law to be consistent with the plan. As part of the plan update, the City is inviting the public to learn about and share their ideas about trees at two community events:

Keynote Presentation: Tuesday, March 11 from 6 to 8 pm at Durant Nature Preserve

State of Trees in Raleigh and a Community Conservation: Tuesday, March 18 from 6 to 8 pm at Dix Park Chapel

If you are interested in attending one or both events, please register here: https://raleighnc.gov/planning/events/reflecting-raleigh-events

East CAC
2025-03-24 19:00 - 20:00 | Lions Park Community Center, 516 Dennis Avenue, Raleigh, 27604
You all are going to love our special guest for this month’s CAC meeting because he’ll be covering a topic we all really care about! Sean Driskill, the manager of Raleigh’s Vision Zero program will be presenting at our meeting next Monday.

For those of you who are confused by the program name as I originally was, Vision Zero refers to the goal of reducing traffic fatalities so much that we end up having zero fatalities. A lofty goal, but they’re starting out just trying to reduce injuries and fatalities along our transportation network. 🚙

Please come to our meeting Monday the 24th at 7 pm at the Lion’s Park Community Center to learn more about how the City of Raleigh is working to achieve this goal and to share your thoughts.

Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Best,
Jean Mosher

Residents,
I previously mentioned that we would not have a speaker for our upcoming meeting. That has changed. We will have Robert Rice, Chairman of the Raleigh CAC as our guest speaker. I have provided updates in the past and we have completed surveys to help us guide our further association with the City. Robert will provide an update to those efforts.
As you may recall, all CACs belong to the larger organization, Raleigh CAC or RCAC. In addition, Councilor Christina Jones, is now our Council liaison to facilitate effective communication between our organization and City Council.
In other news, Sarah Shaugnessy, City Planning, has provided further information and City web site links about Reflecting Raleigh, our next Comprehensive Plan update. While I would have preferred an in person update, she has provided the following information:
“We have made all of our in-person Community Conversation events accessible online for anyone who was not able to attend. All of the community conversation events were recorded and are available for viewing on Raleigh’s YouTube Chanel. We welcome you and other Midtown CAC members to view them and share your thoughts though our related surveys. I have linked these resources below for ease of access. We will use all of this online community engagement to guide the development of the plan in phase II.

Affordable Housing Summit Recording | Links to Presentations | Housing Priorities Survey
Weathering the Storm Community Conversation Recording | Links to Presentations | Stormwater Management Survey
A City in Motion Community Conversation Recording | Links to Presentations | Transportation Survey

If you wish to speak to a staff member one-on-one, I would encourage you to attend one of our upcoming Ask-A-Planner events. The focus is trees and urban ecosystems, but staff are happy to address any questions related to the comprehensive plan. The schedule is below.”

March 20, 3-6pm, Virtual Webinar
March 24, 3-6pm, Biltmore Hills Community Center
March 27, 3-6pm, Walnut Creek Wetland Center

I hope that you find this information helpful. See everyone Monday evening, March 24 at 7:00 at Eastagate Park Community Center or on line virtually.
Regards,
Larry

Hillsborough-Wade CAC (Virtual)
2025-03-25 19:00 - 21:00
Hi CAC neighbors,
We have an agenda update for our Hillsborough-Wade CAC meeting this coming Tuesday, March 25 at 7:00 PM. We will meet on Zoom, the link is below.
Our meeting will feature a presentation on AI (Artificial Intelligence). This will be a good opportunity to learn more about AI and how you can use it.
Click on the below image to watch a 4 minute video about AI.
Agenda
• Police report.
• Update from Hillsborough-Street Community Service Corporation.
• Presentation about AI: understanding the basics and “how-tos” plus an overview on AI developments and how they impact us.
• Update on rezoning cases in our CAC. The applicant for rezoning case Z-54-22, which was voted down by City Council two years ago, is restarting the process to bring this case back before City Council. Our District D City Councilor led the effort to deny this rezoning request two years ago. Now the applicant is coming forward with some money for the future Smokey Hollow city park and some money for the City’s affordable housing fund. These incentives don’t change the request for 30 stories where 12 stories is already approved for this Downtown Transition area. If approved will this set a new precedent for other Downtown Transition areas? This rezoning location is just outside the eastern edge of the Hillsborough-Wade CAC and is actually within the Mordecai CAC boundary. However, this case most affects the Glenwood-Brooklyn Neighborhood which is in the Five Points CAC.

See you this Tuesday evening,
Mike
