Monday morning memo: House budget, transportation funding, etc… (Greensboro News and Record)
As the week gets going, here’s what’s on tap in Raleigh this Monday
Gov. Bev Perdue apparently noticed that the Senate didn’t include her mobility fund (and an associated increase car registration fees) in the chamber’s version of the budget. She’ll be standing on the side of I-40 this afternoon with several mayors to press for the fund. Initially a $22 million investment, the money would go toward high priority projects such as the I-85 bridge over the Yadkin River in Davidson County. (Background from the N+O’s Bruce Siceloff.)
