News Reel: Is the county budget still out of compliance with state code?

This week on the News Reel, we speak to Andrew Christiansen, reporter at the Times-Independent. We discuss Grand County’s budget and new concerns about whether certain transient room tax funds can be spent on projects such as the Trail Ambassadors Program. We also discuss a new fundraiser for Community Rebuilds, which is trying to restaff its organization after recent AmeriCorps cuts eliminated seven positions at the nonprofit. And we finish up with a story about the county’s decision to purchase a new building for the Children’s Justice Center. - Show Notes - • Grand County to revisit Trail Ambassador funding after renewed TRT compliance concerns https://www.moabtimes.com/articles/grand-county-to-revisit-trail-ambassador-funding-after-renewed-trt-compliance-concerns/ • Community Rebuilds launches $50K campaign after AmeriCorps cuts https://www.moabtimes.com/articles/community-rebuilds-launches-50k-campaign-after-americorps-cuts/ • Grand County to buy nearly $1M ‘forever home’ for Children’s Justice Center https://www.moabtimes.com/articles/grand-county-to-buy-nearly-1m-forever-home-for-childrens-justice-center/
