You can also look the information up directly on the NC General Assembly website at: http://www.ncga.state.nc.us/. However, just because the statute says one can do this, if the County policies say they should not and just provide name, title and salary (or whatever information they can give out), then they would need to adhere to those guidelines. You should bookmark this page (NCGA) because it has all of the statutes and information you will need when deciding how or why we do things they way we do.
