CAC meeting Monday Jan 19th at 7 PM

Hi neighbors,

We will be having our East CAC meeting Monday night, January 19th at 7PM at the Lions Park Community Center. Though Monday is a city holiday, we will be fortunate to have Asst. Public Utilities Director Ken Waldroup to come speak with us about the city’s water reuse project and how it will affect East Raleigh.

We will also be voting on the proposed rezoning case Z-15-09, involving properties at 512 and 602 Donald Ross Drive.

Below is official agenda, though there will be other topics discussed as well.

We hope to see you Monday evening!

Longview (Poe) House rezoning meeting January 13th

The Raleigh Planning Commission will consider the rezoning request Z-50-08 of the Longview (Poe) House at their meeting Tuesday, January 13th at 9 AM in the Raleigh City Council Chambers.

The law firm handling the rezoning, K&L Gates, has sent the CAC a list of conditions to be applied to the property and have stated that it is their understanding that these conditions satisfy the neighbors along Luther Road.

Latino strip club application withdrawn

The Special Use Permit application for the El Palacio Latino strip club proposed for 1831 Capital Boulevard has been withdrawn.

This appeared on the Board Of Adjustment’s October agenda:

1) A-72-08 Whereas, Michael T. Parks, property owner, and Oscar A. Chavarria, El Palacio Latino, Inc., lessee, appeal for a Special Use Permit per Code Section 10-2141 to operate an adult establishment (a “topless” nightclub with a Latino theme) in the Industrial-2 zoning district at 1831 Capital Boulevard. APPLICATION WITHDRAWN AT REQUEST OF APPLICANT

With the Foxy Lady strip club next door and an adult bookstore just up the road, the beleagured neighbors of Woodcrest are quite happy to see this property become something other than a strip club.
