New Road Group Is Proposed
RALEIGH A bill to reorganize the state highway commission was introduced in the General Assembly as part of Gov. Dan Moore's program. Identical measures were sent forward by Rep. J. Paul Wallace and Sen. Carl Meares. The plan replaces the 18 member commission with a 14 member body led by a full time chairman who would also be director of highways and the chief executive officer. A state highway administrator would run the commission, with a controller handling bookkeeping and a secondary roads officer to prepare county annual plans for maintenance and construction. Also, the Senate panel reported favorably on making Charlotte College the fourth UNC system unit, despite opposition questioning affordability. Other bills include expansion of the Highway Patrol by 150 officers over the next biennium.

Hardship falls on earners between 7000 and 20000 dollars yearly, while higher earners adjust to underwithholding.
