The Rowan County Board of Commissioners has canceled its Feb. 3 special meeting to allow its chairman to have a special meeting of his own.
County Manager Gary Page said Commissioner Chad Mitchell and his wife are expecting the birth of their child this week. The due date passed last week, and the couple now has decided to induce labor.
Commissioners had set the day aside as a planning work session to discuss the budget and other concerns and ideas. A new date for the meeting has not yet been announced.
