Durham City Council rejected KB Home's request to annex 42.61 acres and build 81 homes outside the urban growth boundary, citing threats to the comprehensive plan and Falls Lake watershed.
City Council unanimously rejected KB Home's 42.61-acre annexation and 81-home Hamlin Reserve project, citing threats to the urban growth boundary, comprehensive plan, and Falls Lake watershed.
Council member Chelsea Cook cast sole dissent on continuing Lee Village Center rezoning to February 16, disputing whether traffic impact analysis must precede or follow project approval.
Cook pressed staff on $755,500 in federal HIV housing funding, alleging minimal service delivery and lack of transparent communication about rejected grant applicants.
