Abstract:

Raleigh’s City Council is considering a bond referendum that will be used to revitalize the city’s downtown. Downtown development would include housing, entertainment options, and shopping. The council is being advised not to rush development so that the development spurs growth, unlike the last revitalization project. A caucus will hear citizens’ and professionals’ feedback before any decisions are made.
