Last April, the Wake County Board of Commissioners adopted PLANWake, the comprehensive plan that lays out the county's vision for future growth and development. This plan relied heavily on feedback from the public.
Since the plan's adoption, staff has been working on strategy and has begun implementing the changes resulting from the new plan. These changes include updates to the county’s current land use plan and development policies while incorporating other planning efforts such as open space, economic development, population health and wellbeing, greenways, affordable housing and transit/transportation.
Just as the creation of PLANWake depended on public feedback, effective implementation of PLANWake will need input from the community to help shape staff's approach to countywide change. Staff are currently seeking input on updates to the Unified Development Ordinances (UDO). Possible changes to the UDO have been outlined in eight topic narratives on the UDO webpage. Once you have reviewed these updates, please complete a short survey to share your feedback on how those potential changes should be approached and prioritized. We appreciate your feedback!
