House to vote on
budget o
iTieodmenv
From staff and wire reports
The N.C. House of Representatives was
scheduled to vote Wednesday on a $358
million amendment to the state's budget.
This supplemental budget proposal was
approved Monday in the Senate by a 42-4
vote.
Rep. Trish Hunt, D-Orange County,
said in a telephone interview Wednesday
morning that she expected the bill to pass
with little opposition.
The budget, proposed by Gov. James B.
Hunt, includes provisions for a 10 percent
pay raise for state employees and teachers.
. It recommends a new pay scale for teachers
that could give them additional raises of
approximately 4 percent.
Kennis Grogan, UNC system assistant
vice president for. finance, said that
approval of the measure could mean an
additional 5 percent salary increase for
some UNC faculty members. This increase
would be along with the 10 percent pay
raise the bill provides. .
"There is a fund equivalent to 5 percent
appropriated to the (UNC) Board of
Governors for distribution to the
institutions," Grogan said. "More than
likely, it will not be across the board."
Some faculty members may get more
than a 15 percent pay raise while others
may get only the 10 percent salary increase,
he said.
The Board of Governors will meet later'
this week or early next week to discuss
policy guidelines for the fund's
distribution, Grogan said.
The supplement to the $5.4 billion
budget passed last year also includes plans
for a 10 percent increase in retirement
benefits, an increase in the state's
contribution to the state retirement system
and an early retirement provision for state
employees.
The Senate passed the bill Monday
despite seven attempts by I. Beverly Lake,
R -Raleigh, to amend it. Lake forced the
Democratic majority to record votes on
several controversial items in the measure,
including the pay and expense allowance
increases for state legislators.
Tuesday the House voted to delete a
controversial cash-flow accounting system
from the surplus budget measure. The 58
57 vote was a surprise to many legislators
since the system was a key part of the
surplus recommended by the governor and
the Advisory Budget Commission. The
change would have provided a one-time
windfall of $57 million next year.
The change was the first in recent years
that either chamber of the General
Assembly has made in a budget approved .
by the appropriations committees.
The cash-flow proposal would allow the
state to begin road construction projects
before appropriating the money to
complete the projects. By freeing already
appropriated immediate-use cash balances
not spent for other road projects, the state
would obtain $57 million with which to

Opponents argued that the plan would
allow highway projects to begin, and that
the projects would be left unfinished when
the money ran out.
