Last night, June 8, our Town Board of Commissioners proclaimed June as LGBT+ Pride Month in Wendell.

Now and always, we celebrate the strength of our community and stand with our LGBT+ neighbors facing challenges in the fight for equality. We urge empathy from all.

We continue working to make Wendell a community where everyone feels like they belong. That work doesn’t stop on June 30.

We see you.

We also appreciate all of those who stopped by our tent to talk traffic calming and pedestrian improvement along Big Falls, Taylor and Hollybrook.

For residents in those areas that haven't weighed in yet, visit townofwendellnc.gov/trafficsurvey.
