CHAPTER 1092

HOUSE BILL 755

 

 

AN ACT TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS FOR THE INSTALLATION OF EXHIBITS TO THE GRANVILLE COUNTY MUSEUM COMMISSION, INC.

 

Whereas, the Granville County Museum was chartered in 1975 by virtue of the laws of North Carolina; and

Whereas, the purpose of the Granville County Museum is to collect, preserve, and utilize historically significant artifacts and to develop interpretive museum programs for the promotion and teaching of Granville County history; and

Whereas, the amount of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) was appropriated over the years by the North Carolina General Assembly for the development of the museum; and

Whereas, the museum, located in one of the oldest buildings in Granville County, is the only museum in the area stressing local history; and

Whereas, to effectively teach the history of Granville County and North Carolina through the use of exhibits containing original artifacts, additional exhibits cases are needed to protect those artifacts; Now, therefore,

 

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

 

Section 1. There is appropriated from the General Fund to the Department of Cultural Resources the sum of one thousand dollars ($1,000) for fiscal year 1981-82 to develop interpretive exhibits in the Granville County Museum, provided a like amount of one thousand dollars ($1,000) is raised by the Granville County Museum Commission, Inc., to match the grant-in-aid on a dollar for dollar basis.

Sec. 2. Funds appropriated in this act shall be expended in accordance with G.S. 121-11 and G.S. 143-31.2.
