Cary initiated a Housing Study with consulting services provided by HR&A Advisors. At the November quarterly meeting, HR&A and Cary staff provided an update on the initial work of the study. Council gave thoughtful input into four focus areas: Choice, Density, Character and Need. As a follow-up to the discussion, HR&A and staff will identify the role that the Town might have in the future.

In Q2, residential alterations and additions permits totaled 348. This gradual increase in permits for existing homes is consistent with the theme of reinvestment in existing properties contained in the Imagine Cary Community Plan.
