Data quality notes
- The county's current site (www.co.davidson.nc.us) was readable on 10/23: the Commissioners schedule and officials list were refreshed (Chair Karen Watford, Vice-Chair Todd Yates, Interim County Manager David Rickard). The newer davidsoncountync.gov address was not reachable.
- The Commissioner agenda portal loads only intermittently and had no agenda for the October 26 meeting; Commissioner pages are built from video captions only.
- No Planning Board schedule is published. The November 3 and November 17 Planning Board pages are inferred from the first-and-third-Tuesday pattern and are unconfirmed.
- Several Planning Board and Board of Adjustment agendas are image-only scans.
- Only the FY2027 proposed budget was posted when last checked; the approved budget is not yet available. Meeting transcripts are auto-generated captions, so names and some terms may be misspelled or misheard.
