Hello,
The second Tuesday in March is Township Day in Minnesota, I really look forward to the meetings that my 7 townships will have on the 11th. I am attending our county day at the capital on the 12th. Of this month. We will be talking to our legislators regarding funding for our county. There are mandates that have been put in place that we have to fund at the local level. I know that our School districts and towns and townships all have some of these mandates, and these will result in increased taxes. I know the news talks a lot about the waste, fraud and abuse of money here in Minnesota and in our federal government. We at the local level pride ourselves on efficiency and watching where our money is spent, our finance department just received the Excellence in Financial Reporting award for the fifth straight year. This award was achieved by only 17 of the 87 counties in Minnesota. Spring is almost here and I am really looking forward to some warm weather. As always give me a call if you have any questions or concerns. 507-319-9550
