Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Greensboro public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Water Restrictions
Greensboro is officially entering its drought response plan because it's been so dry lately. If we don't get some rain soon, expect mandatory limits on how much water you can use.
Water Conservation
Greensboro is asking everyone to dial back their water use ASAP because a brutal heatwave and drought are draining local supplies. If we don't start conserving now, we could be facing much stricter rules soon.

Greensboro is in line to receive over $1.2 million from the North Carolina Forest Service to plant and maintain trees across the community, helping expand urban green spaces.
