Here's your local news at a glance for Friday, the 6th of June.
Good morning, High Point.
💼 Business
Canada-based medical equipment maker Torvan Medical will invest $15 million in a new facility at 4500 Green Point Drive in High Point — the center will serve as its United States headquarters and create 35 new jobs.
🏛️ Government
High Point firefighters are urging the city to add more staff after a fire station closed last week due to low personnel—firefighters say the shortage makes it hard to safely cover calls.
At the city council meeting, Mayor Cyril Jefferson noted a comparison with other cities as officials work on a long-term staffing solution.
Commissioners approved the annual budget today + they denied the school district's request for an additional $32.1 million, so the district must work with its current funds.
This decision will influence how local schools plan their spending in the coming months.
