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 Monday, December 3, 2012. This is the sixth 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 the General Election - 2012, the overarching question, which may well determine the philosophical construct of this sitting board board of county commissioners, is: Who will be elected chairman of the Beaufort County Board of County Commissioners?
It is a simple question, and one that should be determined by the political construct of the board, but for whatever reason, which is well described
by clicking here, this first vote actually boils down to one of cutting deals with Democrats, and their invisible ties to the special interest wonks, that bind these commissioners to the whim of the special interests that have long controlled this board of county commissioners.
