520 <br /> I <br /> The Honorable Edward S. Holmes <br /> Page 3 <br /> June 14, 19.79 <br /> It appears that the current allocation formula for NC DPI funds <br /> penalizes the counties that have been willing to appropriate the local <br /> funds to provide for,adequate educational opportunities and reward <br /> those counties that have not. We do not feel that it is unreasonable <br /> to expect a fair allotment of funds for our school systems. We simply <br /> cannot accept increases of 3.74% and of 8.34% as Orange County's fair <br /> share of NC DPI's 79/80 appropriation. <br /> Again, thank you for your interest and assistance. <br /> With best wishes, I am <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Richard E. Whitted <br /> Chairman <br /> A <br /> cc The Honorable James B. Hunt, Governor <br /> The Honorable Patricia Hunt, Representative <br /> The Honorable Charles Vickery, Senator <br /> The Honorable Russell Walker, Senator <br /> Dr. R. Mike Simmons <br /> Dr. Robert Hanes <br />
