Looking At The State's Regional Legislation As The Session Comes To A Close

The North Carolina State Seal.
NC Department Of Transportation

At the start of this legislative session, the General Assembly was jam-packed with bills to alter ultra-local affairs. Bills were on the table to change school ownership, to clean up Jordan Lake and to take away Charlotte's ownership of their airport, to name a few.

What's happened to all of these bills that sought local control?

Dave DeWitt is WUNC's Raleigh Bureau Chief. He joins Host Frank Stasio to talk about the recent developments in the North Carolina General Assembly as the legislative session comes to a close.

Longtime NPR correspondent Frank Stasio was named permanent host of The State of Things in June 2006. A native of Buffalo, Frank has been in radio since the age of 19. He began his public radio career at WOI in Ames, Iowa, where he was a magazine show anchor and the station's News Director.
