Macon County Board of Commissioners July 2024 Regular Meeting
The Macon County Board of County Commissioners will be meeting tonight at 6pm in the Macon County Courthouse. The meeting will open in the Commissioner’s Boardroom on the Third Floor. If the number of people in the boardroom exceed the posted 49-person maximum capacity as established by the Fire Marshall, the meeting will be moved upstairs to the big courtroom. Due to the perceived public interest in the three public hearings, Macon Media is presuming that the meeting will be moved upstairs to handle the crowd.
Copies of the public agenda and agenda packet are included below, as well as a roll of news outlets with personnel present at the meeting. A video player featuring the livestream of the meeting is also embedded so those who cannot attend the meeting can watch it. The live video will be replaced in a few days with a recorded version with additional angles.
