CHAPTER 1123

HOUSE BILL 1404

 

 

AN ACT TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS FOR A TRUCK DRIVER TRAINING PROGRAM FACILITY AT JOHNSTON TECHNICAL COLLEGE.

 

Whereas, the special North Carolina truck driver training program was assigned to Johnston Technical College in October 1977; and

Whereas, temporary quarters were set up behind the Polk Youth Center in Raleigh, since neither space nor facilities to house the program was then available in Smithfield; and

Whereas, the program is still located in Raleigh; and

Whereas, Johnston Technical College has been relocated so that space is now available for permanent quarters for the program; and

Whereas, three hundred sixty thousand dollars ($360,000) has been raised in public and private gifts, donations and appropriations toward the development of permanent facilities for the program; and

Whereas, one hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($175,000) more is needed to complete the facilities; Now, therefore,

 

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

 

Section 1. There is appropriated from the General Fund to Department of Community Colleges for the fiscal year 1981-82 the sum of one hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($175,000) for permanent facilities at Johnston Technical College for the special North Carolina truck driver training program.

Sec. 2. The General Assembly intends this appropriation to be the final State funds for this project.

Sec. 3. Notwithstanding any other law, Johnston Technical College shall not be required to hire an architect for this project, and no further architectural designs or review of designs other than those already completed need be done.

Sec. 4. This act is effective upon ratification.

In the General Assembly read three times and ratified, this the 10th day of October, 1981.
