Executive Director/CEO


Town Leaders A Message from the Town Manager We strive to make sure we retain that sense of character that continues to make Wake Forest a great community.

The Town of Wake Forest is proud to present its Popular Annual Financial Report (PAFR). Construction continues throughout town on several projects. Dunn Creek Greenway Phases 3 and 4 started this month and are expected to be complete by early 2026. Phases 1 and 2 of our street resurfacing program are complete and we will start on Phase 3 in early 2026. With the passage of the stormwater utility fee, several projects are underway including: Juniper Avenue Culvert Replacement, Miller Park Stream Restoration, Flaherty Park Dam construction, and Bowling Green detention basin repair. Over this past year, we have been working with our architect and engineers on the design of Fire Station 6. Construction is expected to start in March 2026. The site will also include a training center for our firefighters to train in fire suppression and life-saving activities. These training activities are critical to protecting our residents and ensuring the safety of the firefighters. Our Fire Department’s Swiftwater Rescue Team recently achieved Type 1 for the State of North Carolina, which is the highest qualification level. The Police Department was re-accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, Inc. (CALEA) which

assures we are committed to excellent professional standards. Development remains strong and we are still seeing strong growth in the commercial areas within the Grove 98 Development along Calvin Jones Highway and other areas throughout town. Our financial position continues to remain strong. We are AAA status as acknowledged by three credit rating agencies. This signifies the continued strong financial position of the Town. It also results in lower borrowing costs, including lower interest rates. The Town continues to participate in cooperative purchasing arrangements, public-private partnerships, and other cost-saving initiatives to ensure the best return on taxpayer investments. On behalf of our elected officials and staff, I want to thank you for your support of our continued efforts in Wake Forest. We strive to make sure we retain that sense of character that continues to make Wake Forest a great community. — Kip Padgett, Town Manager

Major Initiatives

Community Planning

South Franklin Street Conceptual Drawing

South Franklin Street Widening Project South Franklin Street widening from Rogers Road to Artisan Park Drive is a joint development agreement that includes expanding the existing two lanes to a four-lane median roadway with left-turn lanes. Sidewalks, multi-use paths, enhanced planted medians, and street trees are included in the design. A portion of the tax rate allocated for transportation initiatives is being used to fund this $3.5 million project. Construction is underway with expected completion by spring 2026.

Downtown Plan The Downtown Plan was updated and adopted in November 2024. The plan sets a new vision and policy framework for Downtown in order to fully meet the issues and opportunities Wake Forest faces today.

Adopted – November 19, 2024

PRCR Comprehensive Master Plan The Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources Master Plan was adopted in September 2024. This plan will guide the growth and operations of the Wake Forest Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources Department (PRCR Department) over the course of the next five years. UDO & MSSD Rewrite The Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) and Manual of Specifications, Standards and Design (MSSD) are being rewritten

Drawing on best practices in zoning and land use regulations, the rewrite addresses the current conditions in Wake Forest, which are very different from what they were in 2013. Another objective of the rewrite is to ensure the UDO and MSSD comply with current state and federal law. The zoning map, which is a legal document that illustrates the zoning districts where different development rules apply, will also be repealed and replaced as part of this project.

Stormwater Utility Fund To meet the funding needs for a new Stormwater Management Program, the Town of Wake Forest established the Stormwater Utility Fund with a fee structure effective July 1, 2024. The Town of Wake Forest is pursuing a more proactive approach to stormwater management due to increasingly stringent unfunded stormwater regulations under the MS4 (Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System) Permit and NPDES regulations created by the federal

to implement the policies and recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan, which includes, among other adopted plans, the 2021 Northeast Community Plan, the 2022 Wake Forest Community Plan, and the 2024 Wake Forest Downtown Plan.

Environmental Protection Agency and subsequently adopted by the NC Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ). It is the Town’s goal to not only meet these new permitting requirements, but to also provide current and future residents with a stormwater management program that will protect our drainage infrastructure, improve the efficiency of the overall drainage system, and ultimately enhance the local environment.

Debt Management Debt Policy Compliance

Future Debt Issuance

The Town actively monitors and manages its debt capacity and affordability. In keeping with the goal of enhancing fiscal strength identified in the strategic plan the Town has a formal policy which provides guidance and direction when considering the impact of future debt.

The Town utilizes a debt model to plan the issuance of future debt. The Town updated its debt model in May of 2022 in conjunction with the November 2022 bond referendum with projects totaling $75 million. A debt service fund with specific revenues including a portion of the tax rate, vehicle fees and downtown municipal service district tax funds is earmarked to repay general fund debt.

How the Town’s Debt Compares to Policy

In November 2022, voters approved issuing $75,000,000 in general obligation bonds for roadway and transportation, parks and recreation facilities, greenway improvements and parking facilities. As of June 30, 2025, $52,950,00 remains authorized but unissued. The next planned issuance is tentatively scheduled for Fall 2026 in the amount of $23.4 million.

Budget & Planning Fiscal Year 2025–2026 Budget Highlights The budget represents the fundamental philosophy of being conservative with revenue projections and maintaining fiscal constraint on the expenditure side.

Much like an average household, the Town uses a balanced budget to ensure that it maintains a healthy financial position.

The Town plans for its financial needs of the future by utilizing a five-year capital improvements plan that is updated annually, financial forecasting, debt models, and various other studies and plans.
