Agent Authorization Form
Landowners use this form to authorize an agent to submit development approval applications to the Town of Wake Forest.
What this form is
The form records a landowner’s authorization for a named person to submit specified development approval applications as the landowner’s agent. Wake Forest requires it with an application not submitted by the landowner or lessee; each landowner must submit a separate form if more than one owns the property. It asks for property addresses and tax PINs, application types, names, contact information, the signer’s relationship to an entity if applicable, and the landowner’s signature and date.
Who needs it
A landowner must submit this form with a development approval application filed by an authorized agent rather than by the landowner or lessee.
How to submit it
Submit it to the city department named on the form; check the city website for current contact details.
