SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Adjustment Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Adjustment\n\nFuquay-Varina's Board of Adjustment gave Christ Church another year on 15 July 2025 to act on the special use permit it won in July 2024 for a place of worship at 8316 and 8320 Lake Wheeler Road. The vote was 5-0 and the meeting lasted fourteen minutes.\n\nThe church has not started building. Its representative told the board that materials and labor costs have risen about 40 percent over five years\, and that it is separately asking the town board to excuse it from road improvements along Lake Wheeler Road\, which would change how much it builds and in what order.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_07152025-518\nWatch: https://youtu.be/s7L8-ieI3BQ?list=PLrJHixxvd6Cilw-KPA7iOo2eiazsCTZAR\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/598

SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Commissioners Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nFuquay-Varina's town board took on more than 4 million dollars in state and regional road\, sidewalk and greenway money on 6 October 2025\, including 2\,847\,000 dollars from a metropolitan planning grant for pedestrian improvements between Lincoln Heights and Bridge Street. It also settled a property purchase for 450\,000 dollars to site a future elevated water tank.\n\nTwo residents used public comment to return to a half-demolished house on Longfellow Street\, and the mayor called the builder's handling of it unacceptable and embarrassing. Every vote was 5-0. GoRaleigh told the board its express bus to Raleigh ends on 2 January 2026 and is replaced by an on-demand service.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_10062025-528\nWatch: https://youtube.com/live/3Q-K7wCo4h8\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/585

SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Commissioners Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nNineteen residents spoke\, and fourteen of them came to oppose the town's proposed improvements to Hilltop Needmore Town Park. The board took no vote on the park\; every member answered from the dais instead\, and the mayor set out why the town is looking at the 148-acre site at all.\n\nThe agenda itself moved without dissent: an annexation on Johnson Pond Road\, two rezonings from residential to town center residential\, three code amendments carrying the land development ordinance and both 2040 plans\, and an eleven-item consent agenda. The board also picked a design-build team for Fleming Loop Park.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_05042026-558\nWatch: https://youtu.be/lE19B1UHfSc\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/570

SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Commissioners Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nFuquay-Varina adopted its 2026-27 budget\, and for the first time this year the board did not agree. Fourteen residents spoke against it\, most about the Hilltop Needmore Town Park.\n\nThe board also authorised Wake County to collect its property taxes\, awarded the South Park Community Center renovation\, and heard that the police department has passed an external risk review.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_06012026-562\nWatch: https://youtube.com/live/iHIO5Zc-qVk\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/568

SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Adjustment Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Adjustment\n\nThe board granted Duke Energy the setback and buffer variances it needs to rebuild and expand the electrical substation on Holland Road\, then granted the special use permit for the work itself. The existing substation dates to 1952\, was last rebuilt in 1972\, and already misses current setbacks on three of its four property lines with no buffers at all.\n\nIt also gave Vertical Life Church another year on a permit to build a place of worship on Spence Farm Road\, and let an in-home daycare on Balfour Downs Circle grow from six children to twelve. Every vote was unanimous and the meeting ran until 9:39 pm.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_06082026-568\nWatch: https://youtu.be/H_0ssqoD2kQ?list=PLrJHixxvd6Cilw-KPA7iOo2eiazsCTZAR\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/593

SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Commissioners Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nParking in the North Lakes subdivision was the night's business. Residents had asked for the restrictions to cover every street in the neighbourhood\, and the board wrote the ordinance street by street.\n\nAlso on the agenda: a small downtown rezoning\, a 76-acre annexation on Wade Nash Road\, the annual audit contract\, and proclamations for Juneteenth\, Parks and Recreation Month and the America 250 anniversary.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_06162026-571\nWatch: https://www.youtube.com/live/NC2VzbqiR2w?si=l_peawPGh9EgzHVW\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/567

SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Commissioners Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nFuquay-Varina's Board of Commissioners handled a routine consent agenda August 3 -- an assessment abatement on Longfellow Street\, an annexation petition for Callis Properties on Piney Grove Wilbon Road\, and a condemnation resolution for property needed at the Old Honeycutt Road/Kennebec Road intersection -- alongside two large contract awards: a $151\,455 railroad crossing closure at Wilbur Jones Road/Johnson Pond Road\, and a contract to build a 1-million-gallon elevated water storage tank on Wilbon Road. The meeting also gives first readings to four zoning map amendments that would come back for public hearings later in August: two by Mauldin Watkins Surveying (210 S West Street and 417 & 419 Raleigh Street)\, one combined rezoning and land use plan amendment by Sampson-Bladen Oil Company for the same Piney Grove Wilbon Road tract as the annexation petition\, and one by M/I Homes of Raleigh for Sunset Lake Road.\n\nThe board also welcomes new Economic Development Director Kelly Gordon\, marks National Farmers Market Week\, and pins badges on new fire department hires. Only the agenda was available\, not minutes\, so no outcomes are recorded here.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_08032026-577\nWatch: https://www.youtube.com/live/t7sysZkNwtM?si=sX8jtcSf2j4oqh0e\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1411

SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Commissioners Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nFuquay-Varina's Board of Commissioners took up five land-use public hearings on August 18: two voluntary annexation petitions and three zoning map amendments\, one of which (Sampson-Bladen Oil Company\, Piney Grove Wilbon Road) pairs a rezoning with a land use plan amendment. A sixth rezoning\, for 7151 Sunset Lake Road\, appeared later on the agenda as a first reading rather than a hearing. The board also opened with a Fire Department helmet-retirement presentation honoring Battalion Chief William Johnston and Fire Captain Sam Golightly\, and its administrative reports include a $20.1 million guaranteed-maximum-price amendment for Public Service Center Phase II with Edifice General Contractors.\n\nOne annexation petition -- for Collin Grimes\, Jennifer Grimes\, David and Dava Davis\, and Rebecca Shelton Davis on Wade Nash Road (ANX-2023-13)\, left over from a previous meeting -- is marked on the agenda itself as an item to be tabled\, rather than acted on. Because only the agenda was available for this meeting\, not minutes\, the outcomes of the hearings and the consent agenda are not recorded here.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_08182026-580\nWatch: https://youtube.com/live/sXH9VKfDHK0\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1410

SUMMARY:Town of Fuquay-Varina: Board of Commissioners Regular Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nFuquay-Varina's commissioners carry $1\,397\,647 forward from last year's budget into this one\, the largest item on an otherwise light Tuesday agenda. Budget amendment BA-27-05 reappropriates money already encumbered on June 30 so the town can pay vendors it has committed to. Street resurfacing accounts for $1\,131\,517 of it\, out of Powell Bill funds\; the rest is $164\,409 in unfinished professional and contracted services\, $57\,762 in maintenance and repairs\, and $43\,959 in supplies not yet delivered.\n\nNothing is set for a public hearing and nothing was tabled from the last meeting. The board also recognizes $12\,918 in fire department insurance proceeds\, approves permits for Fuquay-Varina Ghost Tours in October\, and hears that a staff member finished the North Carolina Justice Academy leadership certificate. Seven town events over the next ten days are on the agenda as announcements. The board closes in session at the end.\n\nAgenda: https://www.fuquay-varina.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_09082026-582\nWatch: https://youtu.be/UUCG9aTkFM4?t=11\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/3133
