Our next meeting is scheduled for April 15th at 9:30 AM at the Thomas G. Crowder Woodland Center and our District D City Councilor Jane Harrison plans to be in attendance.
Our guest this month with be Will Shumaker from the City of Raleigh Transportation Department – Mobility Strategy and Infrastructure Division. The City is beginning the conversation on neighborhood Traffic Calming with three streets in District D (Fairway Dr, Deboy St, and Brooks Ave). Will is reaching out to these three streets associated with their projects. He will outline plans for placing speed humps on sections of the three streets to reduce vehicle speeds and talk about traffic calming done by the City.
The white speed humps that have been marked on the pavement in each area are staff starting the conversation with the neighborhood. They looked at traffic calming best practices and laid out a design they felt would be very effective at slowing down drivers. They want to hear from the neighborhood because we are the ones that see traffic and see its use patterns on a daily basis.
If you have topics you would like to discuss or items to bring to the table please reply to this email and we’ll share them with Councilor Harrison before the meeting. You can also bring up topics directly at the meeting.
Look forward to seeing you! If you are unable to attend our next meeting is tentatively planned for May 20th at 9:30 AM.

View agendas and past minutes
Visit our City Council page to find your council member and other council services.

This is a Work Session, so the public cannot participate. But, you can let the councilors know what you think BOTH before their discussion and after their discussion.

What are your thoughts on having a primary in the spring to fix the problem of plurality elections where candidates don’t need 50% of the vote to win?

What about ADDING more council districts?

Do you want Council to change their terms in office from 2 years to 4 years?

Do you know it is legal for the councilors to have 4-year terms while the Mayor’s term remains at 2 years? That’s how it is done in Durham, Chapel Hill and Carrboro right NOW!

Do you want City Council to make these kinds of changes without putting it to a vote of the people through a referendum?

Do you want Mayor Baldwin to sneak off to the state Legislature and ask them to make the changes she wants for her so she can claim she didn’t do it?

Do you remember that is how the previous council moved the election to Nov 2022 and eliminated runoffs without asking YOU what you want?

Livable Raleigh held a Community Conversation, “What’s Next for Democracy in Raleigh”, on these issues on March 4th. You can watch the video and read the materials on our website here: https://livableraleigh.com/community-conversations-2/

The City of Raleigh conducted a survey on some of these issues one year ago and you can see the results of that survey with over 1250 responses here: https://livableraleigh.com/survey-results-for-council…/
