Meetings planned to discuss Albemarle budget

Members of the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors are hosting town hall meetings to discuss the county’s proposed $307.7 million budget.
Supervisor Ann H. Mallek, who represents the White Hall District, said that “many people find it inconvenient to attend board meetings,” and the town hall meetings will allow residents to discuss the spending plan with her and other residents.
Supervisors Sally H. Thomas, representing the Samuel Miller District, and David L. Slutzky, representing Rio, are also hosting meetings.
The scheduled events:

March 2: 7 p.m. at Red Hill Elementary School. Hosted by Thomas.
