9/14/2026 Carroll County Board of Supervisors Joint Meeting with BRCEDA.

The Carroll County Board of Supervisors held a joint meeting with the Blue Ridge Crossroads Economic Development Authority (BRCEDA) on September 14, 2026. The meeting included discussions about the validity of board member appointments and terms for BRCEDA, particularly concerning Mr. Early's term and oath of office. The board debated procedural and statutory compliance related to appointments and voting rights within BRCEDA. A key procurement-related topic was a closed session to discuss a public contract and negotiations involving the Wildwood project at Exit 19, with plans to review additional information and provide updates in the October meeting. The board also reapproved the annual remote participation policy to allow remote voting for members. Additionally, the board approved a motion to conduct a due diligence review of the county's legal representation by interviewing qualified attorneys or law firms to ensure effective legal services. No contract awards or vendor selections were finalized during this meeting, but the closed session and ongoing discussions indicate active procurement and negotiation efforts related to economic development projects.
