It appears the crisis situation at the Wake Forest Post Office has been mostly resolved.
Rolesville Mayor Frank Eagles said this week that the four trucks and four rural carriers for the Rolesville routes are now at the Rolesville Post Office. Complaints are almost non-existent, he said, “and mail delivery is a lot earlier. Now we need a second counter person” in the post office.
Acting Postmaster Tammy McKay at the Wake Forest Post Office is still advertising for rural mail carriers – at last check there were still small signs in front of the post office on East Holding Avenue – but most customers on most routes are receiving their mail in a timely fashion.

The Wake Forest Town Board will meet next Tuesday, Feb. 21, and this meeting is a chance for you to chime in about the town’s budget for next year. Is there a project you want the town to undertake? Do you think the town should put more emphasis on cleaning streets or do you want a new activity offered in the parks and rec department? Remember how quickly the town responded to requests for pickleball courts?
The meeting begins at 7 p.m. in the second-floor meeting chamber in town hall at 301 Brooks Street. It is a short agenda – the monthly planning board meeting on Feb. 7 was scrubbed because of a lack of business to consider – but there will be a number of resolutions to be read at the beginning of the meeting, followed by the hearing on the 2017-2018 budget.
Remember you can speak to the board about any topic that is not on the agenda by signing up with Town Clerk Deeda Harris, dharris@wakeforestnc.gov and 919-435-9413, before the meeting begins.
