This week in local government · NC govwatch

No agendas are posted yet for any of the 26 meetings this week, so there is nothing here about what any of them will decide. Clerks in this region publish a few days ahead; check back from Thursday the 10th.

What the calendar does say is that Tuesday the 15th is the busy day. Cary's council meets at 1 p.m., Apex's at 3:30, Garner's at 6 and Holly Springs' at 7, and Raleigh's council sits twice. Hillsborough's commissioners and Garner's planning commission both meet Monday evening. Raleigh's council also has entries on the Friday and the Saturday, which is the shape of a retreat rather than a regular meeting.

Four boards of adjustment sit across the week — Raleigh and Holly Springs on Monday, Cary's zoning board the same evening, Wake Forest on Thursday. Those hear individual variance and appeal cases, take sworn evidence and decide, so they are worth watching if the case is on your street.

25 boards meet across 7 governments.
