Board continues Surry County budget public hearing after newspaper ad error
Summary
The board voted to continue the budget public hearing to Thursday, April 30 at 6 p.m. after staff said a newspaper advertisement mistakenly listed the wrong weekday; the motion passed unanimously by voice vote.
After staff presentation, Miss Perkins explained that a clerical error in a newspaper advertisement incorrectly listed the weekday for the public hearing, which could have confused residents. "It came to my attention that there was a clerical error in the newspaper advertisement," Perkins said, noting the ad showed the correct date but misidentified April 29 as a Thursday rather than a Wednesday.
Dr. Elliott moved to continue the public hearing until Thursday, April 30 at 6:00 p.m.; the motion was seconded by Mr. Drew and approved by voice vote. The board said the continuance was intended to ensure anyone misled by the advertisement has an opportunity to attend and comment.
