Deferred maintenance backlog at University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill is $645 million

FromThe Raleigh News & Observer: The cost of addressing deferred maintenance needs at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill is $645 million, a new report says. Campus officials blame a number of factors for the backlog, including a history of underfunding repair and renovations to state buildings and, more recently, a legislative decision to cut a reserve fund intended to pay for building repairs.
