Buncombe County opens 2026 virtual session, approves Dec. 2 minutes by roll call
Summary
At its first virtual session of 2026, Buncombe County conducted a roll call and moved to approve the Dec. 2 meeting minutes after a motion and a second; attendance was confirmed for multiple members during the procedural start of the meeting.
Unidentified Host opened the Buncombe County virtual session and confirmed the meeting was being live streamed. "We are live streaming," the host said, then called for business, asking whether members had reviewed the Dec. 2 meeting minutes and requesting a motion to approve them.
The host asked for a motion to approve the minutes and received a second. "Second for me," said Adrian; the host replied, "Thank you, Adrian." The chair then conducted a roll call, noting she would mark responses for attendance and, as appropriate, assent to the minutes.
During the roll call, Commissioner Horton registered assent (the host reported Horton said "yay"), Emily Nicholson said "Present," and Joe Jamieson said "Here and approved." Beth Sherman and Pat Tuttle were also called and confirmed presence; Commissioner Whitesides was not present at the time the host spoke and the host noted he "would have said yes." The roll call served both to confirm attendance and to record members' support for the procedural motion to approve the prior minutes.
The meeting continued with the host indicating a desire to pursue more efficient and innovative uses of county funds in the coming year, referencing prior conversations about process and priorities. No substantive policy decisions or votes beyond the procedural approval of minutes were recorded in the provided segment. The session proceeded with the agenda and further roll-call confirmations.
