Where the data comes from

• Town website: https://www.boonenc.gov/ (agenda center at https://boonenc.gov/agendacenter).
• Agendas, packets and minutes: the Town's CivicClerk portal, https://boonenc.portal.civicclerk.com/
• Meeting video: none. The portal shows no recording for any meeting, and no Town YouTube channel was found.
• Town Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/TownofBoone

Governing body

• Town Council (regular meetings at 9:00 AM or 5:00 PM on varying dates; Town Council Chambers, 1500 Blowing Rock Road): Mayor Dalton George; Mayor Pro Tem Todd Carter; Council Members Virginia Roseman, Adrian Tait, Anne Pruitt and Anitra Ball. The minutes give no wards or districts.
• Interim Town Manager Hank Perkins; Town Clerk Nicole Harmon; Town Attorney Allison Meade; Planning Director Jane Shook; Deputy Planning Director Brandon Wise; Commercial Zoning Administrator Amy Snider; Finance Director Guy Miller; Public Works Director Todd Moody; Police Chief Daniel Duckworth (Major Jon Houck); Downtown Development Director Lane Moody; Cultural Resources Director Mark Freed; HR Director Dale Presnell; Grants Coordinator and Communications Laney Wise; Sustainability and Special Projects Manager George Santucci.

Schedule notes

• Council cancelled its regular meetings of November 11, November 25 and December 23, and set a special meeting for November 18 at 9:00 AM. The joint public hearing of October 26 and the Board of Adjustment (November 5) and Historic Preservation Commission quasi-judicial (November 10) meetings were canceled and have no pages.
• A neighborhood meeting on the WYN property was set for October 19 at 5:00 PM; it is not in the portal list.

Data quality notes

• Minutes were read for the Town Council meetings of September 9, September 23 and October 14. Minutes for September 16 (Human Relations Commission) are posted but were not read. No approved minutes are posted for September 28 or most boards. Draft, unapproved minutes of the October 28 Council meeting are printed in the November 18 packet (pages 41 to 47) and were read.
• Board agendas (Board of Adjustment, Historic Preservation Commission, Downtown Boone Development Association and others) were listed but not read.
• The November 18 and November 23 packets are large PDFs; they were read only through the agenda summaries and the October 28 draft minutes.
• The roster comes from the minutes, not a roster page, and the Town Manager is interim.
• No meeting video was found.
