The Town of Wake Forest is accepting applications from local 11th and 12th graders interested in serving on the following advisory boards:

  • Historic Preservation Commission (HPC)
  • Human Relations Council (HRC)
  • Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources (PRCR) Advisory Board
  • Public Art Commission (PAC)
  • Technology Advisory Board (TAB)
  • Urban Forestry Board (UFB)

Each board has at least one seat designated for a youth representative. To qualify, the youth member must be a Wake Forest resident enrolled in the 11th or 12th grade.

The online advisory board application is available through Friday, Oct. 6, on the Town website at http://bit.ly/TOWFAdvBoardApplication

All candidates will be expected to attend the October meeting of the advisory board to which they applied to introduce themselves to the current members and explain why they wish to serve. Following these interviews, each advisory board will review its slate of candidates before submitting its recommendations to the BOC. The BOC will announce the advisory board appointments during its regular monthly meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 19. New terms will commence in January 2024.
