Triad Regional Grants.
HB 817 appropriates $14.5 million in nonrecurring state funds for specific grants benefiting the Triad region (Winston-Salem, Greensboro, and High Point areas) during the 2025-2026 fiscal year. The bill allocates funds to nine nonprofit organizations and local entities for targeted projects, including mobile medical clinics ($50,000), fire department equipment ($1.2 million), fertility assistance for low/middle-income families ($500,000), stadium improvements ($1.5 million), historic site repairs ($5.3 million), and gun violence prevention programs ($1.5 million). These grants directly support community services, economic development, and cultural events within the Triad region. The bill becomes effective July 1, 2025, and does not create new laws or regulations.
