What's on this agenda

Wake Forest's Planning Board takes public comment October 10 on a rezoning of 19.30 acres at 0 Stadium Drive from Rural Holding District to a Neighborhood Mixed-Use Conditional District. Williams Mullen filed the request on behalf of developer Capitol Commercial on land owned by Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. The plan calls for 307 apartments, a 25,000-square-foot medical clinic, and about 19,400 square feet of general commercial space, plus a realignment of Old Stadium Drive and new turn lanes at several intersections. The board is not voting on the case; a formal public hearing is tentatively set for November 21.

The board also takes comment on a comprehensive plan amendment covering about 584 acres near Oak Grove Church Road and Gilcrest Farm Road, reclassifying the land as Conventional Residential so property owners there can later seek annexation and rezoning for municipal water and sewer service. Staff recommend approval. The board separately reviews potential 2024 meeting schedule options and takes up minutes from its August 21, September 6, and September 12 meetings.

  5. 7.B Consideration of Community Plan Amendment related to the Wake Forest/Raleigh Utility Merger Agreement (CPA-23-03)
    Public hearing AnnexationComprehensive planRezoningWater and sewer
    The town proposes amending the Community Plan's land use and residential areas maps to classify about 584 acres near Oak Grove Church Road and Gilcrest Farm Road as Conventional Residential, following this year's Third Amendment to the Wake Forest/Raleigh Utility Merger Agreement that made the area eligible for municipal water and sewer. The change sets planning guidance for future annexation and rezoning requests from property owners there; it does not annex or rezone any parcel itself. Staff recommend approval, with a public hearing tentatively set for November 21.
