SUMMARY:Midtown CAC Meeting
DESCRIPTION:For our last meeting of 2025\, let’s gather for casual conversation and an opportunity to meet other residents. I will provide the basics: PrimoHoagie’s assorted sandwiches\, Biggby’s Coffee\, and chocolate treats (all locally donated). The rest is up to you. We could use cold drinks\, salads\, fruit\, snack food\, or whatever you would like to contribute. Please let me know if you are bringing items to share. Otherwise\, we will just mingle and enjoy the company. If there is anything of special interest that you would like to see in 2026\, just let me know.\n\nFor general interest\, Tuesday\, December 2\, was a memorable day for CACs. Council took a huge step forward in strengthening the Raleigh CAC organization and partnership with the City by approving additional benefits that will strengthen our ability to fulfill our mission. As part of that agreement\, the CACs have joined the Engagement network\, along with other public groups that serve area residents in many ways. Another reason to celebrate.\n\nUnlike our other meetings\, there isn’t any agenda for this meeting. The only item affecting Midtown in the near future is the upcoming North Hills rezoning\, with proposals for 40\, 20\, and 12-story buildings in an area zoned for 12 and 5-story heights. The application is inconsistent with the Midtown Area Plan building heights\, in addition to several other policy discrepancies of the Comprehensive Plan. While some mixed-use development that brings office\, residential\, and retail offerings to the area is a welcome benefit\, this application does not conform to any policy guidance intended to shape how a Regional Mixed Use Center grows and develops in the Midtown vicinity of the City. \n\nIf approved\, this will change the landscape of the area and will impact traffic on major corridors\, as well as local neighborhood roadways\, without any planned City infrastructure additions.\nDiscussion and comments will be welcome.\n\nThe public hearing is scheduled for right after the holidays when Council returns after their holiday – January 6\, 2026. What a great way to start the New Year! If you have an interest in speaking at the hearing\, please let me know so we can co-ordinate our response.\n \nLooking forward to seeing everyone on December 15 for a lively evening!\n \nRegards\,\nLarry
