What's on this agenda

The board decides whether to accept an annexation petition from M & EM Co. LLC for 27 acres at 0 Rogers Road, tied to the Rogers Road Townhomes rezoning, and to set a public hearing on it. Wake County lists the tract under three PINs. The same meeting takes up a third amendment to the Wake Forest-Raleigh utility merger agreement, which would reconcile a Wake Forest water overpayment, adjust the boundary between the two systems' service areas, and sell a town parcel at 234 S. College Street to Raleigh for an elevated water tank and booster station.

The board also considers an intermunicipal agreement letting the Town Manager execute a deal with Raleigh for stormwater and paving work tied to Raleigh's water and sewer upgrades in the area, and would name the assistant town manager/CFO and the electric utility director as Wake Forest's first and second alternates to the North Carolina Eastern Municipal Power Agency. The rest of the agenda is routine: minutes from the June 6 work session and June 20 regular meeting, a monthly department report, a capital improvement project tracker, a strategic plan update, and a Wake County tax release report.
