TA-23-01 — Emergency Department facility in Rolesville, NC
WakeMed is seeking to rezone a 31.38-acre parcel to CH (Commercial) zoning to develop an Emergency Department facility that is anticipated to serve approximately 18,000 patients annually with about 5-10 ambulance trips per day. The rezoning is supported by the proposed Comprehensive Plan's designation of the property for both Commercial Center and Civic uses, though neighboring Barrington subdivision residents have expressed concerns about proximity, traffic impacts, and ambulance noise.
