  • North Carolina's State Parks: Disregarded and in Disrepair
    North Carolina's State Parks: Disregarded and in Disrepair By Bill Krueger and Mike McLaughlin More than seven million people visit North Carolina's state parks and recreation areas each year-solid evidence that the public supports its state park system. But for years, North Carolina has routinely shown up at or near the bottom in funding for parks, and its per capita operating budget currently ranks 49th in the nation. Some parks are yet to be opened to the public due to lack of facilities, and parts of other parks are closed because existing facilities are in a woeful state of disrepair. Indeed, parks officials have identified more than $113 million in capital and repair needs, nearly twice as much as has been spent on the parks in the system's 73-year history. Just recently, the state has begun making a few more gestures toward improving park spending. But the question remains: Will the state commit the resources needed to overcome decades of neglect? patrol two separate sections of the park, pick up highway in the narrowing strip of unde- trash, clean restrooms and bathhouses, and main- veloped property that separates the bus- tain dozens of deteriorating buildings .
