If there is a power outage impacting our area on Monday, we will cancel the meeting for this month.
Reminder, the planned agenda for the meetings is as follows:
In addition to our Police update on area activity, I want to have an open discussion on:
–the aftermath and next steps after the Council approval of the rezoning of North Hills
A follow-up on certain issues that are still ongoing from 2025:
– the Missing Middle Case of Townhouse additions at Six Forks and Anderson.
– the Future Pathway of the Big Branch Greenway Connector after Council approved the controversial section 1B through Anderson Forest.
– the Green Street modification of Quail Hollow Drive with bicycle paths, traffic calming,and storm water treatments.
– Primary Election Questions
In addition, I would like to have a discussion of other matters of concern as we plan our agenda for 2026.
