Gov. Beverly Perdue has signed five executive orders and a campaign pledge.
In her first working day in office, Perdue issued six orders she says will make state government more efficient and ethical.
PUBLIC CAMPAIGNS: Establishes a governor's task force for the development of an endowment to fund positive gubernatorial campaigns.
REFORM DOT: Prohibits Board of Transportation members from voting on individual projects, or, if they vote, requires them to swear they have no financial interest.
OPEN BOOK: Directs the Office of State Budget and Management to develop and maintain a searchable and public Web site that shows state grants and contracts.
DROP-IN VISITS: Pledges to make regular, unannounced inspections of state facilities and conduct statistical performance reviews of state agencies.
BUDGET COMMISSION: Establishes a citizen oversight panel to ensure government programs are using tax dollars efectively and efficiently.
TOWN HALLS: Affirms governor's commitment to participate in at least four live town halls televised across the state and launches an "electric town hall."
