In Ashe, as in most counties throughout
North Carolina, policy decisions are made by a Board of County
Commissioners. Ashe County’s Board of Commissioners is comprised of five
members of various local communities, chosen by Ashe’s citizenry to
represent them in local, regional, statewide and even national affairs.
The Board holds regularly
scheduled meetings at 3:30 p.m. on
the first and third Monday of each month. Current members of the Ashe
County Board of Commissioners are:

As elected representatives for the population of Ashe County, each
member of the Board strives continuously to educate themselves on
current community, state and federal events, practice sound judgment and
stewardship in usage of County resources, and provide accessible,
high-quality services while maintaining support for viable local
initiatives. Ever mindful of the impending growth of both local economy
and population, the Ashe County Commissioners also work diligently to
improve quality of life, provide steady employment opportunities and
plan accordingly for future needs.
Please check back for additional updates and messages from the members
of the Board of Commissioners. To contact the Commissioners: (336)
