County legislative priorities for 2027 long session
Guilford County
Summary
The county is pushing the state and federal governments on four fronts: regional water and sewer infrastructure, property tax relief for seniors and disabled veterans plus childcare and SNAP penalty fixes, ambulance reimbursement and first-responder programs, and more school/GTCC funding. The SNAP error-rate penalty could hit the county for about $12.5 million even though Guilford performs better than the state average.

Impact analysis
The SNAP/FNS penalty could cost the county roughly $12.5 million next year if state rules aren't changed; GTCC would gain $22.5 million in state money if the ask succeeds.
Residents could see better water capacity, tax relief if they're seniors or disabled veterans, and stronger emergency services and schools.
