072820 nc guilfordcountycommissionerstwitter

County of Kent issued the following announcement on Sept 24.

On Tuesday, Kent County Board of Commissioners Chair Mandy Bolter issued a statement denouncing threats of violence against community members and County staff. Today, several members of the Kent County Board of Commissioners spoke about the importance of condemning harassing or threatening behavior and/or statements aimed at any public servant, County staff, or community member. These actions are divisive and only serve to harm our community at a time when we are experiencing economic, health, and social challenges that have developed over the last twenty months.

We must work together in a professional and collaborative manner especially when differences in opinion are presented. We encourage everyone to move forward with civility and respect and keep to the highest standard of public discourse.
