BACKGROUND

North Carolina General Statute § 153A-52.1 requires local boards of commissioners to provide at least one period for public comment per month at a regular meeting of the board and authorizes local boards of commissioners to adopt reasonable rules that govern the conduct of their public comment periods at their regular meetings, including rules to maintain order and decorum.

 

Approval of this resolution amends Resolution 2021-144 and revises the rules and procedures for public comment at BOC meetings.  Any conflicting language in Resolution 2021-144, or other previous resolutions, is rescinded.
