Hillsborough-Wade CAC
2025-06-24 19:00 - 20:30 (America/New_York) | NC
Hi CAC neighbors,
As you should have seen in previous emails, we will have no May meeting next week.
The Hillsborough-Wade CAC will meet in June (on our usual 4th Tuesday of the month). We will meet Tuesday, June 24 at 7:00 PM on Zoom. The Zoom invitation is below, please add it to your calendar.
We have two great agenda items so far…
• Presentation on the City of Raleigh’s Office of Sustainability
• Presentation about Raleigh’s Rainwater Rewards Program
If you are interested in handling rain-water runoff in an environmentally friendly way, your home and yard may qualify for a 75% reimbursement or 90% reimbursement of the project costs depending on where you live in our CAC. Please click on the above link to find out more and attend our meeting in June.
We may have a police report and rezoning case updates added to the agenda. If you have any subjects you would like addressed at this meeting or future meetings, please let me know.
Stay tuned for more updates about our June meeting,
Mike

West Raleigh CAC
2025-06-25 19:00 - 20:30 | NC
Meeting Wednesday June 25th at 7pm

It’s time to meet and talk about what’s going on in West Raleigh!

We have a rezoning that our group will be interested in learning more about. The “Well Fed Garden” on Athens Drive has been growing fresh fruit and vegetables for over 10 years and the owners, Arthur and Anya Gordon are seeking a rezoning to transform the aprox 2.6 acres into a multi use property that would include apartments and possibly retail uses. They have a second public Hearing before Raleigh City Council on July 1st and this is an opportunity to hear from them and ask questions as they will join us for this meeting. We will also have someone from Raleigh Planning to discuss the land uses and how the rezoning affects the neighborhood.

We hope you can join us via zoom on Wednesday evening at 7pm. Zoom Link follows the agenda
