On April 30, in an effort for the Cary Council to engage virtually with citizens during the COVID-19 quarantine, Cary hosted a live, virtual Town Hall. Each council member was given the opportunity to offer words of hope to the community and respond to questions submitted in advance from citizens. Citizens submitted more than 45 comments ranging in topics from Cary’s coronavirus response to the progress of Shaping Cary’s Tomorrow bond projects, including continued efforts downtown. The event was streamed live on Cary’s website to 353 viewers, YouTube to 285 viewers, and CaryTV. The event was also streamed live on Facebook for the first time with 2,108 viewers tuned in. Overall, this was the most-watched meeting in Cary’s history
