Raleigh was a bit quieter this week as oversight committee meetings slowed down and closed-door leadership meetings sped up in preparation for the impending short session. The Program Evaluation Oversight Committee heard a number of reports, including on the state’s ferry system and increasing lottery proceeds. The Legislative Research Commission to Study Rates and Transfers/Public Enterprises met to discuss water utility systems. The Joint Legislative Study Committee on the Division of Local School Administrative Units met yet again, and The LRC on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (I/DDs) heard from a variety of community organizations.
