Read from the agenda's recorded outcomes. Where the board published minutes, those are the record — this is a pointer to them.

What's on this agenda

The Apex Planning Board takes up a rezoning that would amend the Horton Park planned unit development, raising its unit cap from 250 to 335 homes on the way to a total range of 450 to 850. At stake is whether the board recommends the 16.96-acre PUD-conditional zoning change, filed by PRMS Investment LLC for parcels at 8252 Smith Road and 0 Jessie Drive, to the town council.

Staff lay out two phasing options for the project's off-site road work, including extending Gladsong Road to Smith Road and adding a signal at Jessie Drive and Ten Ten Road. The board also considers approval of its May 11 meeting minutes.

Meeting recap

What happened, drawn from the records published after the meeting. Minutes

The board recommended approval of the Horton Park amendment, 6-0, after members and the applicant's engineers discussed unit counts, traffic and the commitment to extend Gladsong Road to Smith Road once the first 250 units are built. No members of the public signed up to speak on the case or during the earlier general comment period.

The board also approved its May 11 meeting minutes, 6-0, and heard that the Environmental Advisory Board's Data Center Subcommittee now has its own page on the town's website.

How the votes went

Two votes, both unanimous at 6-0: approving the May 11 minutes, and recommending approval of Rezoning Case #25CZ23.
