Commissioner Evelyn P. Lloyd

Evelyn Lloyd has served as a commissioner since 1991, continuing the tradition of local service started by her father, Allen, who served 30 years on the board. The 1965 graduate of the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy and lifelong Hillsborough resident opened Lloyd’s Pharmacy with her father in 1986. This downtown location allows her to hear residents’ concerns, which she faithfully shares with the board. Her family helped preserve 66 acres on Occoneechee Mountain, now designated an ecological area of national significance and protected as part of the State Natural Area. Lloyd is also a dedicated Tarheel fan and can talk football and basketball with anyone who wishes.

- Fire Department Relief Fund
- Hillsborough Water and Sewer Advisory Committee (rotation)
