A Note From Your President

Dear NC Association of Municipal Attorneys Members:
As President of the NC Association of Municipal Attorneys, and on behalf of the Board of Directors, I welcome you to our summer conference!
The conference provides a time to meet new colleagues and strengthen old friendships. To our newer members or first-time attendees, welcome! Please don’t hesitate to say hello and get to know your colleagues. These are the folks who can understand just how unpredictable municipal law can be, and how rewarding it truly is. I encourage everyone to join your friends (including future friends), mentors, colleagues, and fellow servants and get involved with our Association.
This year’s conference will be held August 1-3, 2024, at the Beaufort Hotel in the scenic and historic downtown Beaufort, North Carolina (“Inner Banks”). Our conference will include an educational component of six hours of CLEs and plenty of opportunities to network. We will elect: three (3) officers (the President, First Vice President, and Second Vice President), and four (4) new members to our Board of Directors
Our Nominating Committee will confer prior to the conference to prepare its recommendation of candidates for the new slate of officers. The membership will vote on this slate during our business meeting following Saturday’s CLEs. If you would like to be considered for a board or officer position, please forward your name to the Committee Chair, Meredith Everhart at Meredith.Everhart@wilmingtonnc.gov or contact me at emcgirt@greenvillenc.gov.
The Association welcomes all those who are interested in serving.
As a reminder, this year, we will have a special “Saturday Soiree” where we will honor Ms. Angela I. Carmon, Winston Salem City Attorney, as the latest recipient of the Ernest H. Ball – Frayda S. Bluestein Award for Excellence in Municipal Law. The Saturday Soiree will feature heavy hors d’oeuvres and an open bar, along with recognition of our board members and officers. There will be brief remarks from me and your incoming President.
Please remember: Local government attorneys MATTER and you are an essential public official! The duties of local government attorneys are varied and wide-ranging – we do everything from Annexation to Zoning. What you do is important and should be celebrated.
I hope that each of you will attend this year’s conference and I look forward to seeing you soon.
Sincerely,
Emanuel D. McGirt
NCAMA President
City Attorney, City of Greenville
