Local budgets are approved- what it means in Wake County and Raleigh
July 1 marked the start of FY23, which means local governments are implementing their new budgets. Wake County and the City of Raleigh budgeted $1.7 billion and $1.14 billion, prioritizing investments to address population growth, inflation, affordable housing, and other rising demands.

Wake County grows by 62 people every day, making it the 3rd fastest growing county in the country. The local governments’ budgets reflect additional investments to balance this growth.

Understanding the FY23 Wake County and City of Raleigh budget process
As you may have heard, it’s budget season! From now through June, our local governments will be considering funding priorities and gathering input from the community to inform the budget for next fiscal year. Public budgets are the guiding document for how taxpayer dollars are spent. They reflect a community’s values and investment priorities.

Local budgets must first provide critical services to residents, such as water and sewer infrastructure, trash collection, and public safety. Additional revenues can be allocated to other types of programs like arts and cultural resources.

Shack-a-Thon 2022 is making a splash on the N.C. State Brickyard
Shack-a-Thon is a 20-year collaboration between the N.C. State Habitat for Humanity Chapter and Habitat Wake.

This past Sunday, I was out on the Brickyard at NC State’s campus and got to see students building shacks from the ground up for this year’s Shack-a-Thon to benefit Habitat Wake as well as raise awareness for affordable housing. I am here to tell you these students are strong, smart, innovative and ready to raise money!
