Alamance County Board of Commissioners

The three municipalities are each holding public hearings on the matter on Aug. 17. Several other Piedmont counties have recently enacted data center development moratoriums.

Alamance County Commissioners have agreed to allocate an additional $7.3 million to the local public school system for capital projects. The move comes after the district initiated a budget dispute last month.

Alamance County commissioners and school board members met for over seven hours Monday to resolve a budget dispute, but couldn’t reach a compromise.

Alamance County commissioners and school board members are meeting on Monday to discuss a dispute over district funding.

The Alamance-Burlington School System Board of Education unanimously approved a resolution stating that commissioners didn’t allocate enough money in next year’s budget to “support a system of free public schools.”

The proposal will establish a new 99-acre landfill in the southern part of the county.

Several residents have continued to voice opposition to a new landfill on Clapp Mill Road.

Voters in Alamance County will narrow the field for the Board of Commissioners in the March 3 primary, with a total of eight candidates vying for four spots on the November ballot.

According to a presentation, the proposal aims to combine the region's Family Justice Center, Veterans Services and health department.

The tax hike was a major point of contention during Monday’s hours-long meeting. Several community members spoke during the public comment period, urging commissioners to avoid cuts to the school district and library system.
