What's on this agenda

Wake County's school board and its county commissioners meet jointly on 27 October on deferred maintenance — the backlog of repairs a growing district puts off — and on federal funding.

Affordable housing is on the agenda from the school system's own perspective, which is unusual for a district and follows from where its staff can afford to live. The seven-year capital plan and the county budget round it out.

Summarized from the published agenda. Read the agenda itself before acting on it.
