Agenda document Watch

What's on this agenda

Morrisville's town council will decide whether Duke Energy Progress can build a substation at 0 and 429 Airport Boulevard, a special use permit for what the agenda calls a major utility facility. The public hearing opened June 11, closes June 25, and the council votes the same night.

The consent agenda carries a fourth-quarter budget and capital project amendment, a resolution on 2024 special-event road closures, a resolution rescinding an erosion-control agreement with Wake County, and a resolution letting the police chief award an officer's service sidearm on request under state law. The council also hears a briefing on a Stirrup Iron Creek greenway feasibility study and a Morrisville Parkway access study, both headed toward a vote July 9, and a presentation from Wake County Public School System on its 2023-2028 strategic plan.

Summarized from the published agenda. Read the agenda itself before acting on it.
