During the Dec. 11 Town of Lewisville meeting, a resident who identified himself in the record as "Harry Morley" (the transcript later also records the name "Perry Morley") urged council members to consider adopting a resolution to prohibit the use of town property for immigration-enforcement activities.
The speaker, who said he is running for Congress in North Carolina’s 10th District, described recent enforcement activity he said had caused student absenteeism and urged council members to "stand with the families" and consider a town-level resolution to block immigration-enforcement use of municipal property. He said: "I'm asking you guys to think about passing a resolution that you either support your Hispanic community… they work for you and you work for them."
Council members did not take immediate action on the request during the meeting. The transcript records the public comment and the speaker’s appeal but shows no motion or referral to staff during this session. The record contains an inconsistency in the speaker’s name—he first identifies as Harry Morley and later as Perry Morley in the same public comment period; the article attributes his remarks as recorded in the transcript and notes the name variation.
The council’s next steps on this subject were not recorded at the meeting; any future action would require a formal agenda item, staff research and likely legal review given potential jurisdictional limits on municipal authority over federal enforcement.
