The Planning Board consists of nine members. Based on the proportionality of residents in the Town and residents in the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ), seven members of the board shall reside within the corporate limits and two members shall reside in the Town’s ETJ.
Representatives from within the corporate limits shall be appointed by the Wendell Board of Commissioners. Representatives from the ETJ shall be recommended by the Wendell Board of Commissioners to the Wake County Board of Commissioners for appointment.
In-town members shall be appointed for three-year staggered terms. ETJ representatives shall be appointed for a two-year term. Either class of representative may be appointed for a consecutive term, but after two consecutive terms a member shall be ineligible for reappointment until one calendar year has elapsed from the date of termination of the second term.
