Planning & Transportation
Tavern Talks: We will be holding six meetings, one for each theme, which we have loosely renamed for these meetings. Two meetings will take place on the same evening, at the same time (all meetings will be held from 7 to 8:30 p.m.). The following is the schedule for the meetings, including the topics:
These would be informal meetings where people could come to give their input and talk about the topics, but also mingle with one another and learn more about the comprehensive plan.

Last month Chapel Hill 2020 Co-Chair Rosemary Waldorf asked a group of former Chapel Hill Planning Board Chairs to write short essays about why they believe the Comprehensive Plan is important. In addition to my response, replies from the Mayor, the Manager, the chair of the Sustainability Committee, and 3 other past and present Planning Board Chairs were posted on the Town web site and in The Chapel Hill News.
A moratorium on development in Northside and Pine Knolls was enacted this past summer. In the intervening months, staff of the Town of Chapel Hill and members of the Sustaining OurSelves Coalition have worked together to develop recommendations to curb development that is contrary to the spirit of their neighborhood conservation district strictures. A community plan has been developed, which includes recommendations around affordable housing, cultural and historic preservation, enforcement, education and outreach, parking, and zoning.
This information will be presented to the Chapel Hill Town Council at their Monday, January 9th meeting.
