Lenoir County Commissioners

The County Legislative Body (County Commission) is the governing board and policy-making body of Lenoir County Government. Much of its power and many of its duties and responsibilities are prescribed by law through various commissions, boards, committees, and independently elected county officials.

The Board of Commissioners consists of 7 members elected for staggered, 4-year terms. Two Commissioners are elected countywide and five Commissioners are elected from districts. Commissioners elected by district must reside within the boundaries of respective district. See map of districts.

The Board of Commissioners meets the first Monday of each month at 9 a.m. and the third Monday of each month at 4 p.m. The 4 p.m. meeting afford the general public the opportunity to attend the meeting. Meetings are held in the Commissioners’ boardroom, located on the first floor of the Courthouse in Kinston. The public is encouraged to attend. Board meetings are televised and broadcast on HD Channel 144. They are also on demand at http://www.tacc9.com/commissioner_meetings.htm on a 24 hour delay.

The Commissioners are interested in your thoughts on County issues, programs, provided services, and encourages citizens to provide feedback.
