Residents, business owners & stakeholders invited to complete Community Plan Visioning Survey

The Town of Wake Forest is in the process of updating the Community Plan and Future Land Use Map, and we need your input - again. As a follow-up to the Visioning Workshops in April, Wake Forest residents, business owners and community stakeholders are invited to share their recommendations for residential, commercial and industrial development by completing an online visioning survey.

Citizen feedback is the key ingredient officials will use to create the foundation for the Community Plan Update and Future Land Use Map. Whether you attended one of the visioning workshops or not, don’t miss this chance to share your thoughts and opinions on the future of Wake Forest. Available at www.wakeforestnc.gov/community-plan, the survey takes less than five minutes to complete.

The Town of Wake Forest currently relies on the adopted Town of Wake Forest Community Plan and Growth Strategies Map as a policy-based comprehensive plan with an action agenda to achieve implementation. Adopted in 2009, the Community Plan contains the vision statements, policies and actions that have guided growth in Wake Forest for the last 10 years.

However, the time has come to update the plan. The Wake Forest Community Plan Update and Future Land Use Map will outline the community's vision and guide development and investment in Wake Forest for the next 10-20 years. This two-year process will result in a set of policies that direct future growth and will lead to potential strategies to help effectively guide Town leaders in making substantive and thoughtful decision for the community.  

Over the next several months, Wake Forest residents, business owners and stakeholders will continue to have opportunities to offer their input on the Community Plan Update and Future Land Use Map.
