Bill Threatens City's Finances in State Senate Move
A bill before the North Carolina General Assembly threatens High Point and 72 other city power systems by limiting their authority to extend lines and negotiate franchise deals with private power firms and rural cooperatives. Gov. Dan K. Moore backed the negotiations that produced Senate Bill 95, allegedly behind the scenes. Kemp charges a secret pact aims to curb municipal power, while the North Carolina League of Municipalities sought changes. The measure, now in the Senate public utilities committee, could deprive cities of about $1 million annual revenue used for city operations.
