State budget cuts and implications for High Point and Greensboro
The report notes a state board approval for $10 465 in Point funds with items deemed reasonable, while the state allocated a nominal $482. High Point’s original city budget of about $377 000 was trimmed to below $374 000, reducing roughly 60 000 overall, mainly from salaries. Greensboro lost about 80 000. The ruling affects 726 rural districts drawing from a $1.5 million state tax reduction fund, allowing local funds to cover no more than five percent of the state allotment.
