Chatham County Commissioner Amanda Robertson speaks with 97.9 The Hill News Director Brighton McConnell on Tuesday, August 19. For her debut on the segment — and within her first year as an elected official — she discusses what she’s enjoyed and what has surprised her since joining the board. Robertson also details Monday’s meeting of the commissioners, which included a presentation on the emergency response to Tropical Depression Chantal and ongoing recovery efforts. She also shares some of the ways Chatham is set to feel impacts from President Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” and the new responsibilities facing state governments.
