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
