Impact analysis
Dissolving the charter could shift service costs and tax responsibilities to the county, leaving residents to sort out who pays for what—and whether costs go up or down.
County or state officials could gain clearer control and fewer tiny-town administrative headaches, but it’s not a clear win for ordinary residents.
East Laurinburg residents would lose their own local government and direct representation, and town employees could be out of jobs.
