Don’t Risk Our Cultural Heritage
Raleigh has the opportunity to distinguish itself from other large cities through careful preservation of its historic core.

Are 1800 Sq Ft homes “Cottages?”
We must all be aware of possible changes coming to our neighborhoods in time to weigh in. But since the developer is only required to notify the immediate neighbors, not the neighborhood, those living right next to a piece of land may be the only residents even aware (if they are) of a project being planned. Thus, any objections are likely to come only from those who know about and are affected by the project. How is anyone else supposed to find out about it? Those who DO know must spread the word so neighborhoods can more effectively object, if necessary.
You could have made a difference but you failed!
