What's on this agenda

This is a work session for Wake Forest's Board of Commissioners, a discussion meeting rather than one where the board takes final votes. The board hears presentations on extending Ligon Mill Road from the Grove 98 development through Durham Road to Stadium Drive, new municipal campus signage, and a proposed contract for a downtown traffic study, plus policy discussions on statues and monuments, sponsorship and facility naming rights, and renaming Taylor Street Park.

The board also reviews February's monthly financial summary and previews the draft agenda for its April 21 regular meeting, then closes with a closed session touching real property and litigation matters.
