Education Budget Cuts Move Funds Within State Budget
Raleigh The Joint Appropriations Subcommittee approved a net decrease of more than 838000 in the State Board of Education budget. The child health program shed 550000 and was redirected to the State Board of Health. Other cuts and small increases touched salaries, plant operations, and the home economics and vocational programs as the panel prepared an appropriation bill for full committee. Revenue Commissioner Eugene Shaw urges sales tax reform to boost North Carolina’s per capita revenue, noting the state lags behind peers and highlighting exemptions and definitions as key issues.
