Neighborhood Rezoning Meeting: West Peace Street Assemblage — Rescheduled to 4/23 at McKimmon Center

RALEIGH NEIGHBORS UNITED received the following from MorningStar Law Group:

“…given the significant attendance that we now are expecting for our neighborhood meeting next week, we are rescheduling the meeting planned for April 2nd to a much larger venue.  Simply put, the room available at the Pullen Community Center is insufficient for the size of the group that we are expecting based upon what we have seen on social media.  We do not believe it would be fair to folks interested in the case to continue with the meeting under the circumstances.

We apologize for any inconvenience and would ask that you please let as many of your folks know about this as you can.  We will be mailing out postcards letting the community know of the cancellation and also will be sending a mailed meeting notice once we have a new time/date/venue for the meeting.”

Stay tuned…

MorningStar has now confirmed the meeting will be rescheduled to 4/23 at the NCSU McKimmon Center

Main Opposition Points

• The facts are clear: >12 stories, 240 ft from historic homes and in a transition area, violates 4 plans, 47 policies, 2 tables and 3 core definitions. There is not a single policy or plan that would support >12 stories. “Stick to the plans” (More Details)
• If they force this here, where policy is clear, it will set a dangerous precedent to do this near any neighborhood. This is not an HGBN issue.  All neighborhoods are at risk!
• Given the facts, you should question any Council Member that votes for this rezoning.
