Heads up, civically engaged residents of Durham! The upcoming Durham Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) meeting is scheduled for next Monday. The gathering is set to commence at 7 p.m. in the Commissioners' Chambers. Located on the second floor of the Administration I Building at 200 E. Main Street, this is your chance to witness local governance in action. According to Durham County's announcement made recently, the public is openly invited to join in without the need for a sign-up sheet or request form, making engagement remarkably inclusive.
Also mentioned in the announcement, attendees are reminded about the benefits of masking in indoor spaces, keeping health considerations at the forefront. For those staying cozy at home or unable to make it in person, the County hasn’t left you out. You can watch the BOCC sessions live through various platforms, including Durham County’s website, the Durham County Government YouTube Channel, and now, thanks to a joyful return, on the DTN (Spectrum Channel 8 and 1302).
But wait, there's more! For the community members keen to have their voices heard, your opportunity to engage with the BOCC does not end when the meeting adjourns. The full BOCC meeting schedule for this year is also available—a helpful tool in planning your participation ahead of time. Ensuring you have the right dates will undoubtedly assist in making the most of these public forums.
For those with an affinity for digital convenience, Durham Television Network offers more than one way to stay connected with the BOCC's work. If Spectrum or Frontier Communications isn't your thing, you're not out of options. Residents can also find BOCC session replays on AT&T U-verse (Channel 99).
