Guilford delegation meeting Thursday
The Guilford County legislative delegation, the 10 members who represent the county at the General Assembly, is due to get together Thursday. They are due to meet immediately after "the last house adjourns." Both the House and Senate are scheduled to convene at 10 a.m. and have extremely light calendars so figure this meeting is going to start sometime before 11 a.m. (I'd say 10:30 a.m., but there's a good chance one chamber or the other will dither around for a bit before adjourning.)
According to Rep. Maggie Jeffus, the chairman of the delegation, the assembled honorables will:
- * hear from DOT on the Urban Loop noise issue in the Kings Mill neighborhood.
- * discuss protest petitions. We may find out whether the 100 percent support to file a bill exists. Under the rules that govern the short session, a local bill can't be filed unless all legislators who represent the affected area sign on.
- * discuss others parts of the Greensboro City Council legislative agenda, including whether to put the city attorney under the supervision of the city council, rather than the manager.
I'll be keeping an eye on their doings.
