Public Safety Ahead of July 4: Wildlife officers are increasing impaired-boating patrols for Fourth of July weekend as part of “Operation Dry Water,” after a deadly alcohol-related lake tragedy in Chatham County. Local Governance & Recovery: Banner Elk and other western NC leaders announced resilience funding tied to Hurricane Helene flood mitigation, aiming to move infrastructure out of flood-prone areas and reduce future risk.
