Kwanzaa is a week dedicated to unity, self-determination, and collective responsibility. Those values line up closely with what makes local government work. Best wishes to everyone in Apex who is observing Kwanzaa this year.

West Street Park Renovations Update
Staff has to redesign the sewer infrastructure here due to delays/cancellation of an expected sewer main that would have served the park. The alternative is a grinder pump and a private force main.
Final completion still estimated for Spring of 2027

Today is the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year! From here, the days slowly get longer. If you are out in Apex this evening it is a perfect time to check out and enjoy the holiday lights.

Town Council 12-16 Work Session Summary
I don't plan on posting these summaries for work sessions as typically there are no decisions made, but today is an exception as we awarded the contract for the long awaited Salem Streetscape Project. Construction should start in January

No contract, no coffee. I’m proud to stand with the thousands of union Starbucks baristas who are part of this nationwide unfair labor practice strike as they fight for a fair contract and an end to union-busting.

2025 Resurfacing (and Rejuvenations) is *done*
I've made a few posts about the project as it's progressed along the year, what neighborhoods we're doing, etc - but at this point, everything is done except for some final punchlist items.

As everyone has noticed - the girder's are going up! The bridge will take shape pretty rapidly going forward. Still scheduled to be completed in the second half of next year, ahead of schedule.
