This is one of those “eclipse days” when the Henderson City Council, the Vance County Commission, and the Vance County Board of Education meet on the same day. It seems to us that in a climate of greater civic interest, these major local governmental bodies would be required to meet on different days. This would allow concerned citizens an opportunity to attend all meetings, and elected officials would have a chance to attend the meetings of the other two bodies.
Give it a think on today’s open line.
