SUMMARY:Town of Hillsborough: CANCELLED: Board of Commissioners Fiscal Year 2027-29 Budget Retreat
STATUS:CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nThe Board of Commissioners opens its first Fiscal Year 2027-29 budget retreat with a Black History Month proclamation and a routine batch of budget amendments and transfers on the consent agenda. The board then turns to a broader review of town finances\, starting with a Fiscal Year 2027-33 Capital Improvement Plan that previews requests from every department\, including a new N. Churton Street fire station\, two fire trucks\, garbage and leaf trucks\, greenway and sidewalk projects\, and water\, sewer and stormwater upgrades. None of the requests has yet been matched to funding.\n\nStaff also bring a list of "noteworthy" operating and personnel requests\, warning of large deficits across the general\, water and sewer funds for fiscal 2027 and beyond\, and ask the board to weigh in on a 9% increase in employee health insurance premiums that would add a $200 monthly subsidy for GLP-1 medication. The rest of the agenda covers an information technology update\, a review of the town's nonprofit funding process\, and the board's annual refresher on how members request information from staff\, before a wrap-up on decision points and items left for later meetings.\n\nAgenda: https://mccmeetings.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/hillsbronc-pubu/MEET-Agenda-04eb4347146045db9ba70e0b9e332224.pdf\nWatch: https://hillsborough-nc.municodemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1745

SUMMARY:Town of Hillsborough: Planning Board and Board of Commissioners Joint Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Planning Board\n\nHillsborough's Planning Board and Board of Commissioners hold a joint public hearing on two items. The first is an owner-initiated request to rezone 1.44 acres at 515 Meadowlands Drive\, home to Grace Hill Church\, from High Intensity Commercial to Economic Development District. The second is a staff-initiated amendment to Unified Development Ordinance Section 2.5\, which sets the Historic District Commission's size\, membership qualifications and voting rules.\n\nAfter the hearing\, the Planning Board makes recommendations to the Board of Commissioners on both matters rather than deciding either one itself. The board also hears updates from its representatives to the Board of Adjustment and the Parks and Recreation Board.\n\nAgenda: https://mccmeetings.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/hillsbronc-pubu/MEET-Agenda-271e3d1371ce4cb68c9912a99f870f0e.pdf\nWatch: https://hillsborough-nc.municodemeetings.com/\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1772

SUMMARY:Town of Hillsborough: Board of Commissioners Work Session and Budget Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Board of Commissioners\n\nHillsborough's board holds a public hearing and then decides whether to impose a 60-day development moratorium on data centers as a land use -- an ordinance that would temporarily block new development approvals for data centers\, cryptocurrency mining operations\, and any use tied to data center processing facilities in town. The board also gets a briefing on a SecureNC partnership with the state Department of Information Technology\, which is likely related to the same data-center policy question\, and holds its second FY2027 budget workshop.\n\nOn the consent agenda: miscellaneous budget amendments and transfers\, a Pride Month proclamation\, and a Gun Violence Awareness Day proclamation.\n\nAgenda: https://mccmeetings.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/hillsbronc-pubu/MEET-Agenda-010ac9061d25490dbc9b72e204d71b08.pdf\nWatch: https://hillsborough-nc.municodemeetings.com/bc-boc/page/board-commissioners-work-session-and-budget-workshop\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1736
