Presidential Initiatives

Each North Carolina Association of County Commissioners (NCACC) president selects critical issues they will address during their one-year term, usually through the creation of a special task force of elected and appointed county officials.

Steering Committees

While the Board of Directors ultimately sets NCACC policy, it relies on the Association’s seven Steering Committees for guidance and recommendations. Each Steering Committee has a chairperson that represents the committee on the Board of Directors. The chairperson is appointed by the NCACC President each year. Steering Committee meetings are scheduled as needed to shape NCACC policy and to provide educational opportunities to members.
