Summary

The board voted unanimously to authorize a chairman-signed letter expressing the county’s support for congressional action to advance cleanup of the FUD site in Buxton.

The Dare County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to authorize the chairman to sign a letter expressing support for federal action to advance cleanup of a Formerly Used Defense (FUD) site in Buxton.

County manager (name not specified) told the board members that a letter from multiple county entities asking congressional leaders to move toward remediation had circulated, but the chairman could not sign it without board approval. Commissioner Bateman moved to authorize a similar letter for the chairman’s signature; Vice Chairman House seconded. The motion carried unanimously.

No specific language of the draft letter was read into the record at the meeting, and staff did not identify a target congressional office or provide a timeline for sending the signed letter.
