The NC General Assembly is considering a couple bills that would relax standards to help developers. The Workforce Housing Bill did not “cross over” – that is, get through the first legislative hurdle. The Streamline Review Bill would speed up applications
for multi-family residences by requiring a review to happen within 21 days, or have it sent to a private reviewer. House Bill 409 would forbid local governments from banning ADUs; the concern is the ADUs would be used as vacation rentals rather then cheap
housing. Details will be sent out over the list-serve.</span></p>

the SCAD proponents to meet with neighborhood folks to see what agreements can be found. They met once and were supposed to meet today, but the proponents send an email to an old address to ask for our objections in writing, and then said they couldn’t meet
because there had been no response to their request. There is a new protocol to make sure the communications work in the future. The city attorney has determined that the sections are separate amendments so Council can vote for some pieces and not others.
It might be good to have other neighborhood groups at the table.</span></p>

Trinity Park and are major raceways (in spite of the speed limit of 35). Roxboro and Mangum is the other “major pair” that affects Old North Durham and Duke Park. Trinity Park is interested in possibly taking Duke and Gregson back from NCDOT to make them
city streets, which would let us reduce posted speeds and potentially make them 2-way. Taking over a state road is extremely expensive, so the idea would be to make a trade. Morehead Hill wants to keep Duke and Gregson 2-way in their area because of the
driveways that would be impossible to get out of with 2-way traffic. Old Chapel Hill Street is 2-way and still has speed issues and accidents – lots of cars running into yards and fences.</span></p>
