What Else Is Being Built In Apex

2011-09-30T15:38:00.000-04:00

Humie Olive Road was selected for the new high school site
The 112 acre site, with an estimated construction cost of $59 million, is currently in the preliminary design phase. It is anticipated to open for the 2015 school year. This is considered to be a “Large” category school that could accommodate up to 2,200 students.

New Apex Intersection to Open for Travel
Apex Peakway will open to traffic. Here are the highlights: The section of the Peakway will connect Hunter Street through to Laura Duncan Road, and onto N. Salem Street A 200-foot bridge over CSX railroad tracks made up a large part of the cost. The new crossing means the town will close the at-grade crossing on Moore Street. Also, a new traffic signal at the Peakway's intersection with North Salem Street will improve safety

The Apex Police Department will be conducting a community meeting with residents of the Knollwood and Brookfield communities to address on-street parking concerns. The objective of the meeting is to identify reasonable solutions to better serve residents impacted by Apex Town Ordinance "NO PARKING SCHOOL DAYS” between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m." Sec. 20-165.

Does anyone know what is going in where the Fuji Asian Bistro was? and I notice Firestone in going across the street from there. That facility will soon be home to Apex Banquet Hall.

Apex Jaycee Park Additions Completed

2011-08-26T17:01:00.000-04:00

A ribbon-cutting was held by the Town of Apex to unveil a brand new playground at the park. The new amenities specifically designed for children ages 2-5 include a rubberized play surface, three slides, a bridge, stepping stones and a small hut. The site is located between the athletic fields in a shaded area with new benches and a picnic table. For about a decade, the Citizens for Apex Parks, or CAPS, a nonprofit organization, had been trying to add amenities to Jaycee Park at 451 West Williams Street.

In February, the town council approved an additional 3.4 million-gallon fuel storage tank on the property of Motiva Enterprises. Located just outside of town limits on Ten-Ten Road, many nearby Cary and Apex residents raised objections about the expansion and cited numerous concerns during the pulic hearing. Later Motiva applied for annexation into the town of Apex in order to gain a waterline to the terminal.

In June a contingent of town officials, business leaders and Motiva representatives gathered at Apex Jaycee Park for a check presentation of $20,000 and groundbreaking ceremony for the playground construction. Motiva’s Apex employees will also be putting some sweat equity into the project, volunteering to build benches and replant shade trees. Sam’s Club of Morrisville donated $1,200 for safety fencing and shade trees.

New Apex Schools Site Is Back

2011-01-10T15:47:00.002-05:00

The Wake County school board has approved a contract to buy a 108-acre tract off Humie Olive Road in Apex for $4.67 million. owned by Apex Olive LLC, a development company in which Cary’s SAS software businessman Jim Goodnight is a partner. It is the same location that was discussed back in early 2007, but was criticized as too high by some county officials, and the school board ultimately killed the deal.

Now with the real estate bubble, the county will pay almost half the previous $8.7 million price. Recognizing that this is the best time to buy, the county will be land-banking the property until the expected population and demand for new schools reaches the growth projections. In addition, the Town of Apex will still need to come up with the necessary infrastructure improvements to make the project possible.
