No minutes were available for this meeting at the time of writing\, so this summary describes the agenda rather than what the council decided.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=4181c8ce-bf33-47e7-99c4-bdc46f0cf0e1&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1942

SUMMARY:Town of Garner: Town Council Regular Meeting
LOCATION:Ronnie S. Williams Council Chambers Garner Town Hall 900 7th Avenue | Garner\, NC 27529
DESCRIPTION:Town Council Regular Meeting\n\nGarner's town council was set to consider an economic development incentive for Project Cougar\, a Gregory Poole Equipment Company expansion at U.S. 70 and South Greenfield Parkway promising a $347 million investment and 692 jobs over five years. The proposed incentive equals 80 percent of new property taxes generated for five years\, with a bonus period for meeting job and investment targets.\n\nThe council also planned to continue a zoning text amendment implementing the comprehensive plan's residential and mixed-use standards to November\, discuss a council member's affordable-housing position paper\, and take up a backyard-hens ordinance change raising the limit from 8 to 10 hens per lot. Consent items included a $328\,825 budget amendment for the Rand Mill Road and Main Street project and a contract with Bolton & Menk to rewrite the town's Comprehensive Transportation Plan.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=9cc9d433-2cb7-42c0-91e1-cb09355c7195&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1950

SUMMARY:Town of Garner: Town Council Regular Meeting
LOCATION:Ronnie S. Williams Council Chambers Garner Town Hall 900 7th Avenue | Garner\, NC 27529
DESCRIPTION:Town Council Regular Meeting\n\nGarner's town council takes up two annexation petitions and a rezoning request\, plus a $5 million incentive deal tied to new development at 0 US Hwy 70 East. E District Phase 1 is asking the town to help fund roads\, greenways\, stormwater work and utility extensions\, repaid through the taxes the project itself generates.

The council also considers a special use permit for 257 apartment units in three buildings near US Hwy 70 and Yeargan Road.\n\nAlso on the agenda: a zoning text amendment implementing the town's comprehensive plan for residential and mixed-use districts\, budget amendments for public art and the White Deer Park inclusive playground\, and surplus vehicle disposal. The rezoning request at 8401 Old Stage Road and the text amendment both get referred to the Planning Commission rather than decided outright.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=aa1a541e-3e7c-41a9-beb6-3147f0ba21d1&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1897

SUMMARY:Town of Garner: Town Council Work Session
LOCATION:Ronnie S. Williams Council Chambers Garner Town Hall 900 7th Avenue | Garner\, NC 27529
DESCRIPTION:Town Council Work Session\n\nGarner's Town Council work session on April 28 is dominated by growth: three separate items preview big changes to land use along two of the town's key corridors\, and planning and legal staff brief the Council on options for handling zoning text amendments\, including the legal process for a temporary development moratorium\, without proposing one yet.\n\nCouncil gets an early look at a revised concept for the Village at Big Branch\, which has shifted from a mixed-residential subdivision to a plan blending industrial uses with fewer homes\, and at a rebranded 'Garner Innovation Park' near Jones Sausage Road and I-40\, where the town's economic development arm now wants industrial flex space instead of the workforce housing it originally proposed. The council also gets a first look at the five-year Capital Improvement Plan ahead of budget season and hears an update on the Lake Benson Park master plan.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=da0664dd-85ca-411f-8684-4c64053ec7f2&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1904

SUMMARY:Town of Garner: Town Council Work Session
LOCATION:Ronnie S. Williams Council Chambers Garner Town Hall 900 7th Avenue | Garner\, NC 27529
DESCRIPTION:Town Council Work Session\n\nThe council previewed a rezoning proposal to bring 14.02 acres at Auburn Knightdale Road and US 70 East to Commercial Mixed-Use -- Conditional\, for up to 340 multifamily and upper-story residential units plus 12\,000 square feet of non-residential space\, with dedicated open space and architectural commitments. It also discussed a zoning text amendment (ZTA-26-002) that would allow funeral homes as a permitted use in the Neighborhood Mixed Use district\, while keeping crematoriums as a separate\, distinct use rather than lumping them together as the prior ordinance did\, with added standards to keep funeral homes compatible with nearby residential areas.\n\nThe council continued its FY27 budget discussion\, looking for direction on reallocation options following the May 15 budget work session\, and got an information-only briefing on staff's plan to formally create the Garner Housing Advisory Committee (a resolution establishing that committee went to the full council on June 2). Routine updates included the monthly Development Activity Map and a preview of the pending council agenda through the end of June. There is no closed session.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=8ebd4397-1aed-4b1a-b3f3-05411d62a03a&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1884

SUMMARY:Town of Garner: Town Council Regular Meeting
LOCATION:Ronnie S. Williams Council Chambers Garner Town Hall 900 7th Avenue | Garner\, NC 27529
DESCRIPTION:Town Council Regular Meeting\n\nGarner's Town Council handled a busy consent agenda July 21 -- stop-condition ordinances for the Cambria and Creech Road subdivisions\, a no-parking ordinance for three streets in the Edge of Auburn subdivision\, a resolution setting an August 4 public hearing on the White Oak Storage annexation\, and a corrective amendment to the FY27 position classification plan -- before moving to legislative public hearings. Those covered a second White Oak Road annexation (8.51 acres\, submitted by Fahad Ahmed)\, a Tier 1 conditional rezoning of 31.24 acres at 7615 Ten Ten Road from Rural Agricultural and Commercial Mixed Use to a more intensive Commercial Mixed Use category\, and a zoning text amendment to permit funeral homes by right in the Neighborhood Mixed Use district\, correcting an oversight from the 2022 Unified Development Ordinance. Both the rezoning and the text amendment were closed and forwarded to the Planning Commission for a consistency recommendation rather than decided outright.\n\nCouncil also adopted resolutions delegating authority to the mayor\, town manager\, and town attorney\, and received the FY26 fourth-quarter financial and capital project reports. There was no closed session. Only the agenda was available\, not minutes\, so public turnout and comment on the hearings are not recorded here.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=387d5af1-9144-4176-820e-c6fed8a618d6&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1947

SUMMARY:Town of Garner: Planning Commission
LOCATION:Ronnie S. Williams Council Chambers Garner Town Hall 900 7th Avenue | Garner\, NC 27529
DESCRIPTION:Planning Commission\n\nGarner's Planning Commission considers two items and recommends action to the Town Council on both. Worth Mills of Longleaf Law Partners\, representing a Tier 1 conditional rezoning request\, seeks to rezone 31.24 acres at 7615 Ten Ten Road and 0 Ten Ten Road from Rural Agricultural and Commercial Mixed Use (CMX C197) Conditional to Commercial Mixed Use (CMX C327) Conditional. The commission also takes up a text amendment the Planning Department wrote to fix an oversight in the 2022 Unified Development Ordinance\, which currently does not allow funeral homes in the Neighborhood Mixed Use district\; the amendment would permit them by right\, with any needed use standards.\n\nBoth items go to the commission for a consistency statement and recommendation before heading to the Town Council for final action.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=fc999a50-32f7-4265-b487-594995147b17&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1911

SUMMARY:Town of Garner: Town Council Work Session
LOCATION:Ronnie S. Williams Council Chambers Garner Town Hall 900 7th Avenue | Garner\, NC 27529
DESCRIPTION:Town Council Work Session\n\nGarner's council got its first look on August 25 at the master development agreement for the downtown site next to the Garner Recreation Center\, and the deal has an unusual shape. The town would sell part of the recreation center parcel to developer LMG by private sale\, LMG would build a parking garage\, and the town would then buy that garage back as a condominium unit for $5.5 million. The town would lease spaces in it to LMG for residential tenants\, LMG would run it day to day\, and the town would carry long-term maintenance and repair. A vote is tentatively set for September 15.\n\nThe council also previewed two rezonings before they reach a hearing. The Wake County Board of Education wants 38.98 acres at 6301 Jones Sausage Road moved from Light Industrial to Residential 2 near East Garner Middle School. A developer wants 2.6 acres on TV Tower Road moved from Rural Agricultural to conditional commercial mixed use for a convenience store with fuel pumps. Staff also asked the council to set a September 15 hearing on a zoning text amendment that fixes codification errors and reformats the ordinance.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=228838ad-f6b7-4587-b380-4d0a9f6d6603&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1905

SUMMARY:Town of Garner: Town Council Regular Meeting
LOCATION:Ronnie S. Williams Council Chambers Garner Town Hall 900 7th Avenue | Garner\, NC 27529
DESCRIPTION:Town Council Regular Meeting\n\nTwo conditional rezonings head to a legislative public hearing\, and the council's only job on both is to close the hearing and send them to the Planning Commission. One would move about 3.75 acres on East Garner Road and High Hope Lane\, the Cencar Properties tract\, between two light-industrial conditional districts. The other\, the Enclave at Meadowbrook\, would shift roughly 27 acres on Hebron Church Road from Residential 2 to a denser Residential 4 conditional district. A third hearing covers a town-initiated rewrite of the Unified Development Ordinance's formatting and numbering\, with no policy change intended. Two other land-use items skip that referral: the council would vote directly on a 31-acre rezoning at 7615 Ten Ten Road\, from rural agricultural and commercial mixed use to commercial mixed use\, and on a text amendment letting funeral homes locate by right in Neighborhood Mixed Use districts.\n\nThe consent agenda carries two ordinances up for the second vote state law requires before a criminal penalty takes effect\, both adopted once already on September 1: changes to the traffic code and to the fire prevention code. It also holds $410\,000 in budget amendments\, split between finishing White Deer Park's splash pad and playground and covering utility relocation and rock stabilization on the Rand Mill Road project\, a funding agreement with Wake County that would pay for an Affordable Housing Plan consultant\, and three annexation petitions that would each set an October 6 public hearing for land on Old Stage Road\, Creech Road\, and Guy Road.\n\nAgenda: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/Meeting.aspx?Id=71844bf5-b740-4c65-a6dd-593e0e31ac84&Agenda=Agenda&lang=English\nWatch: https://pub-townofgarner.escribemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1876
