A Green Level resident asked the Town Council on April 9 to conduct a formal investigation into Mayor Hosea McBroom’s conduct and consider disciplinary actions, including censure or removal, under North Carolina public ethics frameworks.
Andrea Edmunds told the council that conduct during the March meeting raised “serious concerns regarding violation of law, ethical standards and fundamental responsibilities of public office,” and requested that Mayor Pro Tem Patricia Jones initiate an investigation under state law or refer the matter to external authorities. Edmunds cited North Carolina statutes governing municipal officials and requested review under the relevant provisions.
Two other members of the public spoke during the public-comment period. Resident Faye Pinnix asked whether the Town had been notified about an incident earlier that day involving an individual firing a weapon into the air and recommended that the Town participate in National Night Out and consider neighborhood walk-throughs by council members. Resident Ida Kleiner raised concerns about unpaid utility bills and asked whether the Town was taking enforcement action; she also voiced concern about the number of rental homes in the Bedford Hills subdivision.
Councilmembers did not record any formal open-session action in response to Edmunds’ request during the April 9 meeting. Several councilmembers, including Mayor Pro Tem Patricia Jones and Councilmembers Sandra McCollum, Remonia Enoch and Stephanie Enoch, thanked the speakers for their comments and noted that residents have a voice. The meeting later went into a closed session to discuss personnel and legal matters under statutory authority; the transcript does not indicate that the public complaint was resolved in open session.
Next steps: The transcript shows no immediate disciplinary action or vote addressing Edmunds’ request in open session. The council recessed the meeting until May 14, 2026, and no additional procedural steps on the complaint are recorded in these minutes.
