RALEIGH — Governor Josh Stein issued his first executive orders as governor on Jan. 2, taking action to help victims of Hurricane Helene.
“Given past failures to effectively provide hurricane relief to Eastern North Carolina, it is in the best interest of Hurricane Helene victims that our office takes such action,” Boliek wrote.
Order number three establishes a new entity, the Governor’s Recovery Office for Western North Carolina (GROW NC) that will reside within the Governor’s Office to coordinate cross-agency recovery efforts.
Stein appears to be bypassing former Governor Roy Cooper’s NC Office of Recovery and Resiliency (NCORR) with the creation of NC GROW.
