Abstract:
The North Carolina General Fund budget presented to legislature in February recommends an 18.1 percent increase in appropriations for operations. This combined with a increase in spending voted upon in 1961 will result in General Fund tax spending in the new biennium at a rate of $1.64 for every dollar spent in the last biennium. In other words, a 64.6 percent hike in General Fund tax support for budgeting operations.
