The impact of North Carolina's long-delayed 2023 Appropriations Act came into clearer focus this week for Wake Forest, Winston-Salem and Forsyth County. In a joint release by Winston-Salem Mayor Allen Joines and Rep. Donny Lambeth (R-NC75), it was revealed that the city would be appropriating $123 million in state funding to three city projects. One appropriation is $35 million specifically set aside for ' economic development activities and infrastructure.' The money is earmarked for improving tourism, sports and entertainment that will serve the Triad and beyond.
