What's on this agenda

Wake Forest's Board of Commissioners holds a linked pair of public hearings on 3832 Rogers Road: a contiguous annexation petition from property owners Donald Lee Eddins, John Barry Eddins, and Brenda Gail Eddins Denton for the roughly 2.97-acre tract, and a companion rezoning request (RZ-25-03) filed by Worth Mills to take the 2.98-acre parcel from Wake County's Residential-30 to Neighborhood Mixed-Use Conditional District. Both come back for the board's formal vote later in the meeting under Planning Items. On the consent agenda, the board schedules a public hearing on a separate town-initiated annexation of 8.25 acres at 0 Devon Square Boulevard, adopts an ADA Transition Plan, and makes its 2026-2027 board and commission appointments. The board also considers a resolution to apply for a North Carolina Division of Parks and Recreation Recreational Trails Program grant.

The meeting opens with a resolution recognizing retiring employee Elizabeth "Bess" Martinson and a proclamation for National Service Dog Month, and closes with the June tax report and monthly department reports.
