Le Bizarre Noir (NOIR BIZARRE) “STRANGE BLACK” is a play on words and reclaiming the idea that exploring works by people of color is often unbeknownst to a mainstream audience who had no idea we existed. Daniel Chavis wants to include everyone who is “strange and black” regardless of their background or sexual orientation, “offering something between Hillbillies and Hip Hop.”
Noir Bizarre is a mobile multimedia event covering the “grey” areas of Bohemia and Afrofuturist creatives. We invite the local Triangle community to experience the bohemian side of this Black Futurist manifesto in art, music, and other endeavors.

Hillsborough-Wade CAC Meeting
2023-08-29 19:00 - 21:00 | NC
Hi Hillsborough-Wade CAC neighbors,
We’ll have our Hillsborough-Wade CAC meeting on Tuesday, August 29th at 7:00 PM. We’ll meet on Zoom (see link at the bottom of this email).
AGENDA:
• Police report by Officer Kevin Taylor
• Jeff Murison will give us an update on the Hillsborough Street Community Corporation
• Report on the new voting rules for North Carolina by Cheryl Tung, President of the League of Woman Voters of Wake County
• Presentation about the West Morgan Neighborhood Association by Carol Gabor and Elizabeth Hofelt
• Discussion of current rezoning cases within our CAC boundaries
• If time permits, conversation about the future of CACs
I think other neighborhoods within our CAC could learn a lot from the organizing efforts of the West Morgan Neighborhood Association! (Please read about them below.)
If your neighborhood has a listserv, please forward this email to your neighborhood. Thanks!
See you in two weeks,
Mike Lindsay
Chair of the Hillsborough-Wade CAC
Phone:919-828-0619
Mobile: 919-429-0177
inform@nc.rr.com

Details about the West Morgan Neighborhood Association from Carol Gabor:
The West Morgan Neighborhood Association has recently been reregistered. The City just sent out a mailing for us, and people are beginning to register. We fall under the umbrella of the Hillsborough Wade CAC, so I think we need to keep you apprised of our aims and activities. The most important thing to keep in mind about this neighborhood is that it is a majority rental neighborhood and of that majority, over 50% would qualify as “affordable” housing. So for that reason, we have a huge interest in keeping our neighbors informed about potential zoning and other changes that could adversely affect the economic diversity of our area. We aren’t against increased density, but we are definitely fighting thoughtless zoning approvals that will prematurely force existing renters out of their homes before creative ways to allow them to stay in the neighborhood are discussed.
We are also planning a celebration of the Boylan Bridge as a public gathering place to view the Raleigh skyline and to memorialize weddings, graduations and other important life events. The tentative date is November 5, 2023. We have applied for community event funding in partnership with the Boylan Heights Neighborhood Association and are awaiting approval. On that note, you should also know that a group of us has started a non-profit called Friends of the Boylan Bridge, Inc. We just received word today that the City has given us $1000 for permanent artwork on the Bridge. That won’t go far, but it’s a start, and over time we hope to get donations from businesses to help make the Bridge a major city attraction.

Midtown CAC Meeting -- in-person & virtual
2023-08-28 19:00 - 21:00 | Eastgate Park, 4200 Quail Hollow Dr,, Raleigh, NC, 27609
Residents and guests,
The Midtown CAC meeting on August 28 will follow the hybrid format that we have been using for the past few months. The in person meeting will continue to be at Eastgate Park community center and the virtual presentation will utilize a Zoom link.

Last month, we had a discussion about a proposed town house development on Dartmouth Road. If you missed it, the video link of the meeting is contained in the previous meeting minutes, posted on our Facebook page and YouTube for reference. This month, we will have a followup discussion on Missing Middle, which is the basis of the town house proposal in Farrior Hills.
In addition, we will hear a City presentation on the Northern Corridor, which will provide rapid transit from downtown to the Midtown area. The routing is still under discussion. I encourage all interested residents to attend.

Appended is the agenda for the meeting and the combined minutes / presentations for the previous July MCAC meeting. Please review the minutes before the August meeting. If there are any advance comments on the minutes, please send them to my attention at your earliest convenience.

The Zoom connection will be the same as previously used, as outlined on the agenda.

In Person Location:
Eastgate Park Community Center
