SUMMARY:Town of Chapel Hill: Town Council
LOCATION:RM 110 | Council Chamber
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nThe Chapel Hill Town Council takes up a light consent agenda: a settlement in the Valentine v. Town of Chapel Hill lawsuit\, the interim Town Attorney's employment contract\, 2026 committee liaison assignments\, minutes from four fall 2025 meetings\, a sole-source purchase of six pedestrian-crossing beacons\, and continuing the legislative hearing on the 860 Weaver Dairy Road conditional zoning case.

Staff recommend closing both hearings\, then adopting the CDBG plan amendments and enacting the LUMO ordinance.\n\nAgenda: https://chapelhill.legistar1.com/chapelhill/meetings/2026/1/2329_A_Town_Council_26-01-21_Council_Meeting_Agenda.pdf\nWatch: https://chapelhill.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=5\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1634

SUMMARY:Town of Chapel Hill: Town Council
LOCATION:RM 110 | Council Chamber
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nChapel Hill's council closed a public hearing on shrinking the town council and extending the mayor's term to four years without taking any action\, and staff confirmed that absent further direction no ordinance would be drafted and the proposal would not return to a future agenda.\n\nEight members of the public spoke\, and none supported the proposals as presented. Several said a smaller council would cut representation for Black residents and other groups who had fought for a voice in town government\, and that the process was moving too fast. Several council members said they would rather put any change to a referendum than adopt it by ordinance.\n\nAgenda: https://chapelhill.legistar1.com/chapelhill/meetings/2026/4/2349_A_Town_Council_26-04-29_Council_Meeting_Agenda.pdf\nWatch: https://chapelhill.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=5\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1652

SUMMARY:Town of Chapel Hill: Town Council
LOCATION:RM 110 | Council Chamber
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nChapel Hill's Town Council advanced its Homestead Gardens affordable housing development June 17\, authorizing development contracts and ground leases with both Community Home Trust (for townhomes) and Habitat for Humanity of Orange County (for duplexes). The council also enacted a nondiscrimination ordinance amendment prohibiting discrimination in places of public accommodation and in employment\, awarded a $2\,363\,978.32 construction contract to Lanier Construction for the Fordham Boulevard Sidepath between Cleland and Willow drives\, and approved the recommended funding plan for the town's Human Services Funding Program. A left-turn restriction from North Street into the Rosemary parking deck was also enacted.\n\nOn discussion items\, the council received and filed both a campaign contribution limitations discussion and a Complete Community implementation update without further action\, then voted to continue its Land Use Management Ordinance (LUMO) discussion to June 22 rather than take it up that night. The council filled seats on the Board of Adjustment\, Historic District Commission\, and Planning Commission\, and closed for a personnel and property matter before authorizing\, in open session afterward\, an option extension agreement for the Wallace Deck. All recorded votes passed\, several unanimously\; the record does not specify roll-call splits beyond that.\n\nAgenda: https://chapelhill.legistar1.com/chapelhill/meetings/2026/6/2353_A_Town_Council_26-06-17_Council_Meeting_Agenda.pdf\nWatch: https://chapelhill.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=5\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1666

SUMMARY:Town of Chapel Hill: Town Council
LOCATION:RM 110 | Council Chamber
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nChapel Hill's council rewrote its own campaign finance rules on September 9\, amending the disclosure exemption and maximum contribution limits in Chapter 2\, Article IV of the town code. It also took an update on the Land Use Management Ordinance rewrite\, the document that governs what can be built in the town and where.\n\nThe rest of the evening was consent business: re-appropriating money encumbered before the fiscal year turned\, adopting the 2026-2027 Public Housing Capital Fund program plan and its project ordinance\, and supporting a grant application to the Governor's Highway Safety Program for FY27. Three proclamations opened the meeting\, for Hispanic Heritage Month\, Patriot Day\, and Co-Responder and Crisis Week.\n\nAgenda: https://chapelhill.legistar1.com/chapelhill/meetings/2026/9/2354_A_Town_Council_26-09-09_Council_Meeting_Agenda.pdf\nWatch: https://chapelhill.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=5\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/2924

SUMMARY:Town of Chapel Hill: Town Council
LOCATION:Library\, Meeting Room B
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nChapel Hill's council spent Tuesday evening on two planning presentations and took no votes. The first was the Everywhere to Everywhere Greenways feasibility study\, which staff brought back with a community engagement summary after updates in February and June. The second was the draft rewrite of the Land Use Management Ordinance\, with a staff memo\, a reference guide and maps of greenways and of arterial and collector streets.\n\nStaff asked for guidance on the greenways study and comment on the draft ordinance. Neither item carried a recommendation to adopt anything.\n\nAgenda: https://chapelhill.legistar1.com/chapelhill/meetings/2026/9/2337_A_Town_Council_26-09-16_Council_Meeting_Agenda.pdf\nWatch: https://chapelhill.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=5\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/3131

LOCATION:RM 110 | Council Chamber
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nChapel Hill's council takes up a $65 annual library fee on Wednesday for Orange County residents who live outside the town limits. Staff recommend adopting it\, citing the 2023 Library Task Force report. The town's library has been free to county residents\, and this would change that for everyone beyond the corporate limits.\n\nThe council also sees the draft Land Use Management Ordinance\, the rewrite that has been in front of one board or another since a 4-4 tie sank the omnibus package in November. Staff bring a high-level summary\, a reference guide and maps of greenways and of arterial and collector streets. Council is asked to receive and comment rather than vote.\n\nOn consent: a construction contract with Morgan Corp to remediate the dam at 1714 Legion Road\, an updated schedule of property acquisitions for the North-South bus rapid transit line\, the 2026-27 Percent for Art plan\, signage naming the Cedar Falls Park community center and two greenway extensions for Bill and Peggy Britt\, and twenty sets of minutes going back to a 2014 council retreat.\n\nAgenda: https://chapelhill.legistar1.com/chapelhill/meetings/2026/9/2355_A_Town_Council_26-09-23_Council_Meeting_Agenda.pdf\nWatch: https://chapelhill.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=5\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/3129

SUMMARY:Town of Chapel Hill: Town Council
LOCATION:INFORMATION ITEMS ONLY
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nChapel Hill's 30 September information packet carries three reports for the town council. It is not a meeting\, and nothing in it is up for discussion or a vote. The Orange Water and Sewer Authority asks for comment on draft principles for dealing with PFAS\, the "forever chemicals" it finds in the Cane Creek Reservoir\, in wastewater and in biosolids. OWASA held community chats on 1 and 6 October and will take the feedback to its board in late fall.\n\nThe town's housing department reports 72 affordable homes developed and 252 preserved in fiscal 2026\, with $6.3 million spent through partners. That puts the town at 27% of its five-year development goal and 76% of its preservation goal. The packet also carries a progress update on the J Branch Rail Trail study. The study is looking at the 10.8-mile Norfolk Southern spur that serves UNC's power plant as a possible trail\, and it is due in May 2027.\n\nAgenda: https://chapelhill.legistar1.com/chapelhill/meetings/2026/9/2342_A_Town_Council_26-09-30_Information_Packet.pdf\nWatch: https://chapelhill.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=5\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/3128

LOCATION:RM 110 | Council Chamber
DESCRIPTION:Historic District Commission\n\nAn accessible-lift addition at 204 Glenburnie Street returns to Chapel Hill's Historic District Commission on Tuesday\, 13 October\, after the commission continued the hearing on 8 September. The owner's architect\, Shaan Hassan\, also proposes replacing the rear deck with a new deck and patio in the Franklin-Rosemary Historic District.\n\nThree certificates are on consent: a new dwelling and a moved carriage house at 21 Cobb Terrace\, a metal fence at University Baptist Church\, and a second-story addition at the Delta Kappa Epsilon house on South Columbia Street.
