City/County Planning Board Meeting November 12, 2026

The City of Winston-Salem City-County Planning Board met on November 12, 2026, to consider zoning cases, subdivision plans, and Unified Development Ordinance amendments. The board unanimously approved or recommended approval of several residential development and subdivision proposals, including townhomes, mixed housing, and a 77-lot subdivision. It also recommended approval of two contested special-use rezonings: a daycare and related commercial development near Clemens Road, despite residents’ traffic and safety concerns, and a storage facility on Reedsville Road, despite staff’s recommendation for denial. These actions are planning recommendations or land-use decisions, not public contract awards.

The board also considered ordinance amendments expanding the types of signs eligible for historic designation and broadening the zoning districts where life-care communities and nursing-care institutions may be allowed. It approved moving the November 2027 meeting date because it conflicted with Veterans Day. No procurement, vendor selection, public spending allocation, or government contract activity was identified.
