With the recent controversy surrounding the City’s Missing Middle regulatory reform efforts, staff has scheduled various meetings and workshops starting in January to inform residents about how these reforms fit into the City’s overall effort to provide more housing choices and opportunities to all Raleigh residents. If you are interested in learning more or participating, you can find additional information here. The first meeting in the series is scheduled for January 11 from 6-8:00pm at Durant Nature Preserve.
