Tasha
The City has provided the following responses to your questions below. Sorry, this took so long. Responses
such as these are reviewed by multiple employees, departments and their legal staff. What one would think
should be a fairly simple and quick response can drag on sometimes as was the case here.
QUESTION: I understand the road project has been identified on the City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Would
the City construct the road without the adjacent development, Wake Forest Road Mixed Use Re-Development?
RESPONSE: "YES. The extension of Wake Towne Drive to Industrial Drive is on the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and
as such it is an identified need and the desire of the City to have this road constructed as soon as possible. This
will be a public City street with a dedicated right-of-way subdivided from the existing private properties. It
would provide additional route options for not only the proposed re-development project to the south (Wake
Forest Road Mixed Use Re-Development), but also the existing Holly Park Shopping Center (Trader Joe's, etc.) to
the north and the residents of the new Jones Grant apartments and other hotel and businesses along Wake
Towne Drive. It will help alleviate traffic congestion along Wake Forest Road and its existing major intersections
(e.g., such as Six Forks Road), by providing a new alternative route option to Six Forks Road via lndustrial Drive."
QUESTION: Would the City allow the adjacent parcel to be re-developed without the road construction?
RESPONSE: "YES. There are instances in which the Alcatel property could be redeveloped without the property
owner having to dedicate and construct the Wake Towne Drive extension. For example, there are
circumstances when the City could require the developer to provide a fee-in-lieu of constructing the roadway
improvements, in which case the City would undertake construction of the roadway improvements at a later
date."
Please let me know if you need anything else to complete your review.
Thanks!

I have reviewed the PCN for the City of Raleigh's Wake Towne Drive Extension. I understand the road project
has been identified on the City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan. Would the City construct the road without the
adjacent development, Wake Forest Road Mixed Use Re-Development? Would the City allow the adjacent
parcel to be re-developed without the road construction?
Thank you,
