Sales Taxes Not Going to NC Technical College
Citizens of Buncombe County, North Carolina passed a referendum in 2011 approving a quarter-cent sales tax increase to help support a local community college, A-B Tech. The controversial measure received enough support from locals because the revenue was to be used for campus construction and infrastructure improvements. To date, the intended disbursements have not been made. At the time of the vote, the promise to A-B Tech was verbal and the referendum never mentioned the facility specifically. Coupled with a slim 500 vote margin of approval, citizens fear that the revenue is not being used as promised.
