Votes at a glance: bonds, opioid settlement, adjournment
Summary
Key votes at the Bertie County special meeting: (1) Approved resolution consenting in principle to Encore Connects project revenue bonds; (2) approved participation in a national opioid distributor settlement; (3) adjourned the meeting — all by voice votes with no recorded opposition.
Several formal actions were taken at the June 30 special meeting. The board approved an in-principle resolution to allow issuance of tax-exempt bonds for Encore Connects’ broadband expansion. Later, the board voted to participate in a national settlement covering additional distributors in the opioid litigation framework. The meeting concluded after a motion to adjourn was approved by voice vote.
Motions were made and seconded on the floor and passed without recorded dissent. The meeting minutes should reflect the formal motions, seconders and that each item passed by voice vote; staff should attach the executed participation form for the opioid settlement as appropriate and file resolution paperwork for the Encore Connects financing.
