A partnership between the state and City of Goldsboro has resulted in the completion of the Goldsboro Community Floodprint and initial implementation of the plan’s recommendations.

Less than a month after Hurricane Helene hit Western North Carolina, Governor Roy Cooper today shared a state budget recommendation to help rebuild stronger to withstand future storms. The recommendation includes an initial $3.9 billion package to begin rebuilding critical infrastructure, homes, businesses, schools and farms damaged during the storm.

As relief efforts continue in Western North Carolina, Governor Cooper is encouraging Western North Carolinians affected by Hurricane Helene to enroll in Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (D-SNAP).
