The Forsyth County Board of Commissioners has a new member. Republican Gray Wilson was sworn in Thursday during a ceremony at the Forsyth County Government Center.
The Army veteran has also been a lawyer for more than 40 years.
Wilson said that experience taught him the value of being a persuader over being a bomb thrower.
“There are rational and intelligent ways to arrive at decisions that are for the betterment of this community," he says. "And that’s what I’m dedicated to trying to do in this instance.”
The executive committee of the Forsyth County Republican Party chose Wilson to fill the seat that was vacated in June by the retirement of Dave Plyler. The term ends in December.
Wilson is also one of six candidates running for three seats in the board’s District B.
