Raleigh Residential Real Estate – Local Property Taxes May be going up – More Information on the Bond Issues are on the October 9, 2007 Wake County Election Ballot – What are they and are they worth it?
One of the three bond issues to consider is the $50 million bond for additional Wake County Open Space.
The purpose of the Open Space program is to preserve forests, meadows, streams and floodplains, and natural areas suitable for recreational or other public uses in Wake County. One of the major goals is to protect water quality.
Wake County loses about 1.5 acres of undeveloped open space land per hour. This totals about 13,000 acres per year. Since 2000 about 3,548 acres have been preserved.
The bond issue will provide monies to continue to buy and preserve more open space.
