Maddy summarySB 80 allows specific North Carolina towns (including Apex, Cary, and Wake Forest) to use electronic notices - like posting on city websites - for public hearings and required notices, replacing traditional methods like printed notices. It directly affects these 11 towns by expanding their notice options while preserving existing requirements for mail notices to certain groups and property postings. The bill does not change current rules for mail notices or property sign requirements but lets local governments choose electronic methods for other public notices. It applies only to the listed towns and becomes effective when signed into law. The bill is currently in the Senate Rules Committee.

Constitutional Amendment/Right to Access Public Records.
Maddy summaryThis bill proposes adding a new section to the North Carolina Constitution to guarantee the public's right to access government records and attend public meetings. It declares that public records belong to the people and mandates that records and meetings for all state and local government branches be open for inspection and duplication. The amendment allows restrictions on this access only if the government can prove a compelling public interest exists and that the restriction is narrowly tailored to protect that interest. If voters approve this change in the November 2024 election, it will become part of the state constitution immediately upon certification.
