LOCATION:Library\, Meeting Room B
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nThis is Chapel Hill's annual Legislative Breakfast\, where the town council meets with the Orange County delegation to the North Carolina General Assembly and partner organizations.

SUMMARY:Town of Chapel Hill: Town Council
LOCATION:RM 110 | Council Chamber
DESCRIPTION:Town Council\n\nChapel Hill's council closed a public hearing on shrinking the town council and extending the mayor's term to four years without taking any action\, and staff confirmed that absent further direction no ordinance would be drafted and the proposal would not return to a future agenda.\n\nEight members of the public spoke\, and none supported the proposals as presented. Several said a smaller council would cut representation for Black residents and other groups who had fought for a voice in town government\, and that the process was moving too fast. Several council members said they would rather put any change to a referendum than adopt it by ordinance.\n\nAgenda: https://chapelhill.legistar1.com/chapelhill/meetings/2026/4/2349_A_Town_Council_26-04-29_Council_Meeting_Agenda.pdf\nWatch: https://chapelhill.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=5\nDetails: https://ncgovwatch.com/meetings/1652
