Hillsborough-Wade CAC meeting

Pullen Park Community Center 408 Ashe Ave, Raleigh, NC

Hi CAC neighbors, Our Hillsborough-Wade CAC meeting is tomorrow evening Tuesday, January 28 at 7:00 PM. Our meeting location is at the Pullen Community Center at 408 Ashe Avenue. This meeting is critical to making progress this year with Raleigh’s new community engagement efforts. As you may recall, it was a year ago in early February that District E City Councilor Christina Jones introduced a series of motions to re-establish the City of Raleigh’s recognition and support of CACs. While we’ve made some progress this past year, we have much to do this year. Including making sure every Raleigh resident has an equal opportunity to be represented by a CAC where they live. CAC volunteers and City staff need to work together to stand back up CACs in parts of town where they disappeared after the 2020 City Council vote to stop supporting CACs. As a CAC Chair and RCAC Chair, Christina Jones reminded the Council every month for 4 years that the City never came up with any new community engagement opportunities to replace CACs.  Almost a year ago Christina led the City Council to reverse that mistake from 2020.

Lake Crabtree Park-RDUAA Seeks Public Input for Development of 136 Acres Forested Land

RDU Airport Authority Board room 100 1000 Trade Drive, RDU Airport

Lake Crabtree Park-RDUAA Seeks Public Input for Development of 136 Acres Forested Land Wednesday, January 29, 2025  (5-7pm) RDU Airport Authority Board Room 100 1000 Trade Drive, RDU Airport Parking in "Cell Phone" lot across from rental car returns The RDUAA has scheduled a Special Board Meeting regarding the future of Lake Crabtree County Park (LCCP) for Wednesday, January 29, 2025 starting at 5pm. At this meeting, public input will be solicited for development ideas and RESTRICTIONS/LIMITATIONS for 136 acres of land now in forested mountain bike and pedestrian trails. RDUAA is proposing allow private commercial development of this tract into some sort of "entertainment development' which includes hotel, restaurant(s), retail, similar. Due to a confidentially agreement, the public is not being told what the (also unnamed) developer proposes -- a lack of transparency! We are confident the public will have a lot to say about the proposal to convert one of the most popular features (forested bike/ped trails) of one of the County's most popular parks into some sort of commercial development. The Umstead Coalition will be suggesting a revisit of the land use Master Plan for the RDU Airport - instead of dismantling our public lands track by […]

Court Hearing – Wake Stone’s Bridge

Wake County Court House 316 Fayetteville Street, Raleigh

Court Hearing - Wake Stone's Bridge Thursday, January 30, 2025  (9:30am - noon) Wake County (old and tall) Court House Room 10A (10th floor) 316 Fayetteville St, Raleigh, NC 27601 The public is welcome and we would LOVE, LOVE supporters in the courtroom. We are the only case in this courtroom so we would LOVE to see you with us in the court room!  We are guaranteed this hearing time!   Due to the last delay that was the court staff's fault, we finally avoid the "calendar call" and further delays. The actual hearing starts at 9:30am.  This is the hearing originally scheduled for December 2, 2024, but delayed by other cases on the judge's docket. Then, scheduled for January 13, 2025, delayed by the court staff 'forgetting' to schedule our case. Frustrating! There is a bridge authorization to destroy the riparian buffers along Crabtree Creek (OAH Judge van der Vaart’s April 1, 2024 ruling). This despite the Umstead Coalition had previously won THREE(3) court cases upon Appeal to revoke-they just keep trying and we keep fighting for the law to be followed. Here we go again, for the 4th time! On April 1, 2024 AOH Judge van der Vaart ruled the Buffer […]
