Public Hearing On Text Change Regarding Residential Infill Development
The Raleigh City Council voted unanimously today to hold a public hearing on a text change that addresses residential infill development. The text change would expedite the neighborhood conservation overlay district process. It was one of the options presented by the Planning Commission and the Planning Department regarding residential infill development.
The City Council and the Raleigh Planning Commission will hold a public hearing on the proposed text change on April 15 at 6:30 p.m. in the council chamber of the Avery C. Upchurch Government Complex, 222 W. Hargett St.
Also today, the council held for two weeks consideration of a proposal to form a study group that would be charged with reviewing best practices in other cities regarding residential infill development. The study group would develop recommendations for the council to consider. Council members will discuss forming the study group at its Feb. 5 meeting.
