Town Council Regular Meeting

The upcoming Town Council meeting, and related special call meeting, will focus on finalizing the town's budget for the next fiscal year and addressing ongoing recovery efforts from Tropical Storm Helene. A key discussion will center on potential changes to flood regulations, specifically looking at elevation requirements and land use restrictions within areas prone to flooding. Residents impacted by these regulations, or interested in the town’s approach to flood mitigation, should pay close attention.

Several important decisions are expected, including final approval of the FY 25/26 budget, which will determine town spending for the coming year. The council will also be voting on adopting a regional hazard mitigation plan, designed to prepare the town for future natural disasters. Additionally, the council will be considering a request from the ABC Board to adjust their financial limits – an issue that could impact local businesses.

Beyond these immediate decisions, the council will continue discussions about attracting investors for the town center project and address ongoing recovery work from Tropical Storm Helene, including repairs to parks and infrastructure. A special call meeting is scheduled for June 30th to finalize the budget year, and regular meetings are planned for July. Residents can attend these meetings or watch them online to stay informed about decisions impacting their community.
