What's on this agenda

Morrisville's council decides Tuesday whether Wake County may build the West Wake Solid Waste Facility at 414 Aviation Parkway. The hearing opened on September 8 and stays open for the vote. The special use permit covers about 13.71 acres east of Aviation Parkway and International Drive, land that now holds the town's public works office; a 2024 permit paired the county convenience center with that public works facility, and the county's operation has since grown to take the whole site. This is a quasi-judicial hearing, so members may weigh only evidence entered under oath. Staff note the county will not have to build the Aviation Parkway improvements the transportation plan calls for, because a funded project already exists there and the applicant is a government agency.

Staff also give the council its fourth update on the comprehensive transportation plan, which will guide spending through 2045. This round covers greenway project rankings, roadway cross-sections matched to specific segments, a draft implementation plan and a list of intersections worth further safety study. Staff have also begun a signalized pedestrian crossing assessment on Aviation Parkway near the Hindu Society of North Carolina entrance. On consent are lease extensions for the Western Wake Farmers Market and the Morrisville Community Garden, and the council proclaims Veteran Suicide Awareness Month.

A 2024 permit covered a joint county convenience center and town public works facility; the convenience center has since expanded across the whole site and the public works facility has dropped out.
