This series of posts will be made weekly on Chapelboro to help inform our community about local government meetings. All meeting days, locations and times may be subject to change. Check town, county, and school district websites for additional information.
This week is a busy one in local government, with numerous board meetings and high-profile agenda items. The most notable may be at Orange County Schools, where the school board will consider a resolution supporting immigrant students and families – and reaffirming the district’s right not to voluntarily provide student information or allow ICE agents into the schools without a legal requirement. Also on this week’s agendas: the Carrboro Town Council will discuss the town’s land use ordinance; the Chapel Hill Town Council will discuss greenways and hold a hearing on a proposed apartment complex; and Durham County Commissioners will tackle property revaluation.
Here’s a rundown of local government meetings this week in Durham, Orange, and Chatham Counties.

Orange County Commissioners also meet Tuesday, February 11, in the Southern Human Services Center. After a closed-session meeting at 6:00, commissioners will convene in open session at 7.

And the Orange County School Board meets at 7 p.m. Monday, February 10. Click here for the full agenda, which includes a work session on summer programming and the spending of bond funds. The highest-profile item on their agenda, though, is a proposed resolution in support of immigrant students and families, in response to threats from the Trump administration to send ICE agents into public schools. The resolution declares that Orange County Schools “welcomes and supports all OCS students…without regard to immigration status”; that district officials will only provide information about students when they’re legally required to do so; and that the district reserves the right to “deny entry to school system property” to individuals – including ICE agents – unless they’re legally required to allow them in.
