Ordinances and Policies

The Board of Commissioners takes formal action to enact law or policy in three ways: by motion, by resolution, or by ordinance. On this page we have provided links to frequently requested ordinances and policies enacted by the Board. This is not intended to be an exhaustive list; documents will be added periodically. It is our goal to provide a searchable, codified code of ordinances in the future.

If there is a policy or ordinance you would like to view that is not found below, please contact the Office of the County Manager at (910) 592-6308.
