What's on this agenda

The council's old business includes final adoption of two land-use items: a text amendment adding crash safety data to the town's development review process (ZTA-1-26), and the Overlook on Old Crews rezoning (ZMA-4-25), a master-planned PUD, both moving from ordinance introduction to enactment. New business introduces a bond order and sets a public hearing on it, alongside a communication strategy for the coming bond referendum and a presentation of the FY27 budget.

The consent agenda is substantial: a fiscal policies update, adoption of a procurement card policy, a contract extension with GFL (likely for solid waste or recycling service), purchase of property on Hodge Road, a right-of-way dedication for the Harper Preserve development, setting a public hearing on a Raleigh-Knightdale annexation agreement, and an added sidewalk mural at the Knightdale Station Park splash pad. The meeting opens with several recognitions -- a flag football team, a student volunteer, an outgoing advisory board member, new staff introductions, a police officer's swearing-in, a civility award, and a Mental Health Awareness Month proclamation.
