As I promised you transparency during my campaign, I wanted to take a moment to give you an update on what we have been up to in our first three months here: At the County level, there are some things not yet established for us.

Even without an approved budget, you can be assured that we are going through ALL current spending from top to bottom and looking for cost-lowering options in every area of what we do here.
