Kelly McCullen, Host of UNC-TV's Legislative Week in Review, will open
the program with a summary of the new tax legislation and other outcomes
from the 2013 legislative session that impact funding of local
services.
The specific impacts on local budgets, revenue sources, and services
will be discussed by Charlie Horne from Chatham County, Deborah
Criag-Ray from Durham County, and Michael Talbert from Orange County,
each representing a County Manager's office..
The program will be held Thursday, September 19, from 7pm to 8:30pm, at

Via NCWARN:
N.C. Utilities Commission public hearing on the rate hike requested by Duke Energy.
Duke Energy is rigging rates to force you to pay for climate-wrecking power plants we don't even need. The company creates demand for electricity by attracting data centers and other large users to North Carolina by offering dirt-cheap rates. The cost of building these new power plants is shifted onto smaller customers. Residential rates will increase an average of 13.9% if Duke gets its way, and rates for small to medium-sized businesses will go up as much as 10.7%.
Date:
Tuesday, July 2, 2013 - 6:00pm to 8:00pm
