Hey neighbors,
I hope everyone is enjoying the warm weather. I thought I'd
send out an update to the group since it has been a little
while since my last one. I apologize for the delay since my last communication.
In the meantime I married my lovely fiancé, went on my honeymoon, had a death
in the family and went on several business trips around the country. So, I've
been a little busy even if my communications to the group didn't reflect that.
First things first, our next Community Watch meeting will be
next Wednesday, June 26 at 7:00 PM. We're going to pick up on the suggestion
from our last meeting to meet outside to enjoy the nice weather. We'll meet at
the Culpepper Park. Bring a chair and bug spray. If you want to bring
refreshments, please do. If the weather is foul, the rain date will be
Thursday, June 27 at 7:00 PM. If we get rained out that day as well, I'll send
another email to the group with another date.
Next, I've signed up our group to participate in the National
Night Out event on August 6, 2013, like we discussed in our last meeting. I'll
bring information on this event to the meeting on the 26th, but the website
where you can read about the event is www.natw.org. We'll brainstorm ideas for
activities as part of the National Night Out at the next meeting.
The traffic calming effort on King Charles has taken its
next step forward. White paint markings have been placed on the street and curb
to delineate the location of traffic calming treatment and signs. Please take a
chance to look at them when you have a chance. Comments can be sent to
ntmp(a)raleighnc.gov or 919-996-4066. Contact name: Thomas Fiorello
Lastly, did you all do your homework from the last meeting?
Your homework was to go out and look at your street lights to note any that are
burned out, faulty or find locations where a light should be added. Did you all
do that? If not, the weather is just fine to go for a little walk in the
evenings. Take a friend or neighbor if you prefer not to walk alone after dark.
Please bring your homework to the next meeting. Be sure to write down the pole
numbers of associated with any issues you may find as we'll need to pass along this information to Duke Energy for review. Thanks again to Emrys for
providing the template for this type of project.
I'm looking forward to seeing all of you on the 26th.
Kind regards,Matt Leary

Public Invited to Union Station Information Session on Wednesday
A public information session on the planning and design of the Raleigh Union Station will be held on Wednesday, June 26, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at CAM Raleigh, 409 W. Martin St. Raleigh residents and other interested parties are invited to attend. This will be the third in a series of public information sessions on the Union Station project.
The purpose of the workshop is to solicit public input regarding program elements. Conceptual plans also will be available for review and comment. There will be a brief presentation at 6 p.m. Representatives from the North Carolina Department of Transportation’s (NCDOT) Rail Division, the City of Raleigh and the design team will be available to answer questions. Public comments provided at the workshop will be taken into consideration during the station design process.
Raleigh Union Station is located at 510 W. Martin St. in the Viaduct Building, a former Dillon Supply Co. warehouse facility. The future station is a joint initiative of NCDOT’s Rail Division and the City of Raleigh. Funding for the first stage of the station’s design is provided by a grant from the Federal Railroad Administration, as well as from City and state matching funds.
Also at Wednesday’s public information session, citizens will have an opportunity to learn more about the City of Raleigh’s efforts to improve and expand bus service into Downtown. To be introduced at the meeting is a project that looks at future needs and opportunities to modify service at the Moore Square Transit Station. The project will also evaluate alternatives for establishing a new multi-modal transportation center that will serve as Raleigh’s primary bus transfer facility.
Free parking for the public information session will be available in the surface parking lot at the end of West Martin Street.
