Why this petition matters

Please sign the petition below asking the Raleigh City Council to intervene with zoning application Z-43-2022 which has the potential, if approved by City Council, to put a four story, 280 unit residential building put on the site of the Clover Lane Apartments on Wake Forest Road in the center of the Mordecai Community.

CLOVER LANE : Clover Lane apartments were built in 1968 and sit on a 5.37 acre property with 57 two-story units, many with rental prices which are considered affordable. The Clover Lane property (405 Clover Lane) is currently zoned R-10, NCOD Mordecai II, which permits up to 90+ homes with a maximum building height of 35 feet.

Zoning application Z-43-2022 was filed on May 8, 2022 to rezone the Clover Lane parcel, located in the center of the Mordecai Community on Wake Forest Road. The property is currently included in the Mordecai II NCOD. https://cityofraleigh0drupal.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/drupal-prod/COR22/Z-043-22.pdf

A committee of neighbors was formed by the Mordecai CAC in April 2022 and has been meeting since then. Community representatives have met with the developers and attorneys multiple times, and have stressed neighborhood concerns about access, height, setbacks, traffic, affordable housing, stormwater, and parking. The rezoning application as originally written was very broad and did not have a "real plan" to address many of the neighbor concerns.

The committee has worked to have more reasonable conditions written into the application and urges council to require them.
