Beaufort County Government's General Meeting Agenda: Tuesday, November 13, 2012 | Eastern North Carolina Now

The Beaufort County Board of County Commissioners Will Meet to Discuss the County's Business

    The Government of Beaufort County meets every month for at least one general meeting to discuss and act on the county's business. Beaufort County employs the county manager form of government which stipulates that the board of county commissioners allow the county manager to set the agenda, and bring issues before them.

    The Beaufort County Board of County Commissioners will meet to discuss a variety of issues in their general meeting on Tuesday, November 13, 2012. This is the fifth general meeting post-budget, when the Beaufort County Commissioners, by a vote of 5 to 2, elected to make no serious cuts of the budget and borrow even deeper from the county's fund balance.

    With County Commissioner Jay McRoy losing in theGeneral Election - 2012, this general meeting will be the last to be operated in the political vein of the Beaufort County Commissioner's infamous "Gang of Five" controlling most decisions made by this board. It remains to be seen if a new "Gang of Five" emerges in the December general meeting, when a new county commission is seated.
