F <br /> x Page 45 <br /> STATE GRANTS <br /> The 1997 General Assembly appropriated eight million dollars to the North Carolina <br /> Department of Cultural Resources (DCR) for grants to cultural , historic, art , and museum <br /> projects . The appropriation was divided among historic preservation , documentation , and <br /> arts-related projects . Funding was made available to local governments and nonprofit <br /> organizations on a competitive application basis . Unlike the $ 100 , 000 maximum of the 1993 - <br /> 1995 cycles , there was no cap on the 1997 grant awards . However, DCR Secretary Betty Ray <br /> McCain made every effort to ensure maximum participation in the program . Among the <br /> preservation projects were : $ 60 , 000 to Preservation North Carolina for the rehabilitation of a <br /> model house in the Glencoe Mill Village in Alamance County; $2 , 000 to prepare a National <br /> Register nomination for the Cape Lookout Village Historic District in Carteret County; <br /> $ 10 , 000 to restore the Thomas Day House/Union Tavern in Caswell County ; $ 5 , 000 to <br /> prepare a National Register nomination for the NCFS Fire Tower in Warren County ; and <br /> $ 125 , 000 to restore the Oval Ballroom in Fayetteville in Cumberland County .
