Union County Board of Commissioners cancels meeting after failing to reach quorum

The Union County Board of Commissioners canceled its scheduled meeting after failing to reach a quorum, a staff member said at the start of the session.

The meeting could not proceed because the board did not have enough members present to take official action. During roll call, Commissioner Pitts responded “Yes,” and Commissioner Miller responded “Yes,” while responses from other commissioners were not recorded in the transcript. A staff member then said, “Without having a quorum, we will cancel this meeting till the next 1.”

Stephanie, a staff member who was asked to conduct the roll call, was present when commissioners were polled. The transcript does not specify how many members were present overall or the official quorum threshold for the board. No motions or votes were taken before the meeting was canceled.

The cancellation means the board will not address any agenda items that may have been scheduled for the session; the staff member’s remark indicated the meeting was being canceled “till the next 1.” The transcript does not specify a rescheduled date or any follow-up steps.
