WakeMed seeks rezoning of a 31.38-acre property (Parcel ID 1758494277) from its current zoning to CH (Commercial Highway) district to facilitate construction of an Emergency Department facility. The rezoning is consistent with the proposed 2050 Comprehensive Plan's Commercial Center and Civic designations, with zoning conditions prohibiting certain commercial uses to mitigate impacts on the adjacent Barrington subdivision.
REZ-26-0002 — Mixed residential and commercial development, with residential units (capped at two dwelling units per building) and commercial space (approximately 2,500 square feet, potentially two users)
Rezoning of 1101 Averette Road for a mixed-use project combining residential units (limited to 50% rental) and commercial space, contingent on street connectivity efforts with an adjacent property, utility infrastructure requirements before residential occupancy, and HOA enforcement of rental and landscaping restrictions.
26-0002 — 76 residential units (single-family attached and detached homes) and approximately 5,000 square feet of neighborhood-serving commercial/retail space
Lock7 Development proposes to rezone 16.5 acres from RM-CZ/RL to RH-CZ and GC-CZ to create a mixed-use neighborhood with 76 residential units at 4.6 units per acre and up to 5,000 square feet of neighborhood commercial space. The project includes greenway connections, a pollinator garden, affordable housing contributions, and conditions limiting short-term rentals and requiring commercial infrastructure staging, with a traffic study indicating minimal impact.
TA-26-0006 — Downtown mixed-use development with street-oriented design standards
The Downtown Overlay District text amendment establishes design standards for properties along the downtown Main Street corridor, including requirements for street-oriented building orientation, rear/side parking, reduced setbacks (5-20 feet), and drive-through prohibitions in the walkable core area. The overlay includes a statutory down-zoning protection clause making it aspirational for existing properties but fully applicable to new development and voluntary rezonings. This case affects future development and redevelopment potential in the downtown corridor and may impact property values and development feasibility depending on location within the overlay zones.
ANX-26-0001 — Church campus expansion
Hope Baptist Church seeks to annex approximately 10 acres at 825 Averette Road to gain access to public sewer service, which is necessary for future campus expansion as the current on-site septic system limits development.

REZ 25-0001 — WakeMed Hospital facility
WakeMed is seeking to rezone property in Rolesville from an unspecified current zoning to Commercial Highway (CH) district to accommodate a hospital facility. The CH zoning allows for a 60-foot maximum building height, which is critical to the project's design compared to other districts. The approval is conditioned on completion of Granite Falls Boulevard before opening, additional buffering, and noise/lighting mitigation between the ambulance area and adjacent housing.
TA-26-0002 — rezoning
A rezoning application for 1101 Averette Road has been recommended for approval by city staff as consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, Transportation Plan, and Greenway/Bicycle Plan policies. The request passed on a 6-0 vote with committed development as part of the rezoning proposal. Developers should verify the specific requested zoning districts and any conditions attached to the approval.

REZ-25-0004 — 62 attached single-family townhomes and 2 detached single-family dwellings
This rezoning proposes 62 townhomes and 2 detached homes on 10 acres currently zoned for low-density residential. The town's 2050 Comprehensive Plan designates this site for commercial use with a mixed-residential component, but the applicant proposes an entirely residential development. The case has been continued to August 18, 2026, and the applicant has indicated willingness to explore adding a commercial component along the North Main Street frontage to achieve plan compliance.
FSP-25-0007 — plat

Development is targeted to commence in late fall 2026 with initial occupancy of the police department by summer 2028.
TA-26-004 — comprehensive_plan_amendment
TA-26-004 amends Section 6.5.E.4 regarding fence height regulations in Rolesville. The amendment was found consistent with the Rolesville Comprehensive Plan and adopted unanimously. This text amendment may affect fence requirements for commercial and residential developments in the jurisdiction.
TA-26-0004 — other
This text amendment increases the allowable fence height from 6 feet to 8 feet for residential lots that directly abut higher-intensity land uses like commercial or industrial areas where no vegetative buffer or HOA restriction exists. The amendment applies only to side and rear yards in older, pre-modern development patterns without mandatory buffers, and does not affect newer developments with HOA covenants or required buffer yards. Residential developers with properties adjacent to non-residential uses may benefit from the expanded screening option.
