I don't claim to fully understand either of these text changes; however, my
2 cents.
TC-1: I'm still very confused about this text change. It sounds like it will
force the PC and Council to become more accountable for their decisions,
since compliance with standards is supposed to be the basis for decisions.
Very concerned about equitable representation for the average citizen. Needs
to be some serious discussion about implementation and training. The GA reg
that requires consistency with the Comp Plan sounded like a good thing;
however, the PC quickly learned there is no watchdog around to enforce the
reg.
TC-2: List of prohibited conditions is my biggest concern. Not sure why we
are tinkering with prohibited uses before rewrite of code. Submittal of
requirements and timing of changes seem advantageous.
Not sure I can make it tonight. What are others thinking? Ana, can you be a
spokesperson for the RCAC tonight?

I hope some of you will come to the public hearing tonight to speak about
TC-2-10. If TC-2-10 passes as is, it may be the beginning of the end of CUD
cases. I don't know how you feel about CUD cases, but if CAC's can't
negotiate with rezoning petitioners before the rezoning is approved, I
believe that we lose control of what happens in our communities. TC-2-10
also expands the list of prohibited zoning conditions to include:
. the future sale or marketing of property
. building materials
. right-of-way reimbursement values
. prohibitions of cross-wake access or public street connections or
extensions
. limitations on the hours of refuse collection
. submittal of a traffic impact analysis
Also, the way T-1-10 is written, we only can give our opinions at the
Planning Commission meeting, not at the City Council public hearing. The
writers of TC-1-10 had to choose between the City Council Public Hearing
Meeting and the Planning Commission meeting as to which one would be the
"quasi-judicial" meeting. They chose the Council meeting. That means if we
want to state our opinions (that may or may not be factual), we cannot do so
at the "quasi-judicial" City Council meeting, but will have to go to a 9:00
a.m. meeting of the Planning Commission. TC-1-10 was written because of a
bill passed in the Legislature during their last session.
If you have concerns about either or both text changes, I hope you will take
time to attend the Council meeting this evening. It begins at 6:30 p.m.
There is only one rezoning case and these two text changes on the agenda, so
the meeting should be rather short.
Hope to see you there.

Gentlemen,
Why are TC-1-10 and TC-2-10/Rezoning Review Process not listed on tonight's
agenda? Does this mean they will not be heard tonight or are they are to
be heard tonight? How many people who are interested in those two text
changes have gone to the city web site, not seen them listed on tonight's
meeting and will not attend the meeting?
Because there is no mention in TC-2-10/Rezoning Review Process of the
CAC's being involved in the rezoning process, I am very concerned that many
people will learn after the fact that they have very little or no say in what
happens in their neighborhoods. That will be a sin in my book and will
result in greater distrust of government. No wonder many people no longer
vote in elections.
Mary Belle Pate

I just got a half-dozen or so bounce-backs from my email to the RCAC
group sent directly from my email address: linda(a)lindawatson.com
Some of them required that I join a spam-blocking service and agree to
terms, which I'd rather not do. Would those of you with spamblockers
please add me to your lists of approved emails? I'm looking forward to
working with everyone.
Thanks ...

You raise a valid concern. At East, we may choose to ask our planner to
attend our zoning committee meeting rather than the full CAC, as his
expertise would definitely be useful there.
I suppose its up to the individual CAC chairs and the planners as to how
they can best work together.

Subject: CAC Meetings
Hello Mr. Patterson,
I am a member of the Wake Voice for Animals and our mission is to research, identify, inform and lobby for programs or improvements that will benefit companion animals in Wake County. We support efforts of rescue groups and organizations that respect and value the human-animal relationship. We embrace the No-Kill philosophy and believe in each animal's right to live.
The purpose of my writing you is to ask if our group might attend some of the CAC meetings in Raleigh to solicit citizens' concerns and recommendations regarding pet overpopulation in our communities. It is a growing concern and we want to know how we can involve them in making Raleigh a better and more humane place for our animals.
We need to develop community systems to bring about more responsible pet ownership to reduce the number of unwanted animals. I believe with the help of advisory councils such as the CACs, we can make life better for the homeless animals in Wake County.
Any assistance you can lend is greatly appreciated.
Patricia Archer
