North Wilkesboro Board Considers Annexation, New Grant Programs at June 25 Meeting

The North Wilkesboro Town Board met on June 25 to consider several proposals, including a downtown building improvement grant, a new BUILD grant, and multiple zoning and annexation items. No final votes were recorded in the published agenda; the meeting was held as a discussion and public hearing session, with minutes not yet available.

Public hearings and zoning changes

The agenda included a public hearing on an annexation petition for property at 224 Jones Dancy Street. The board also scheduled a public hearing to consider removing Parcel #2203757 from the town’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). Additionally, a public hearing was set for proposed text amendments to the town’s zoning ordinance, specifically to Articles 3.2, 3.4, and 3.7. These amendments were introduced for discussion but no action was reported.

New grant programs

The board was scheduled to introduce two new funding initiatives: the Downtown North Wilkesboro Building Improvement Grant Program and the BUILD Grant. The agendas provided no details on dollar amounts, eligibility, or application deadlines for either program. Both were listed as items for consideration, not final approval.

End-of-year budget amendments

The June 25 meeting also included a proposal for end-of-fiscal-year budget amendments, though specific figures or line items were not disclosed in the published agenda.

Coming up

The Town Board will hold its next regular meeting on Tuesday, July 7, at a time and location to be determined based on the agenda. The primary action item is a request from the Finance Director to approve General Fund Budget Amendment #10, which covers salaries and other expenses. The board will also vote on approving minutes from earlier meetings: the March 25 Budget Retreat and the April 7 Regular and Closed Session meetings.

Residents interested in the July 7 meeting can find the full agenda on the town’s official website or at the town hall. No additional upcoming meetings were listed for the next two weeks.
