The Warren County Board of Supervisors held work session with outside agencies regarding the FY 2020-2021 budget on Tuesday, January 28, 2020.
Royal Examiner will follow the process over the next few weeks. In this first session, 15 outside agencies presented their request to the Board of Supervisors. In this first meeting, Supervisor Tony Carter was absent – sick as well as Archie Fox. No word on why he missed the meeting. Supervisors Walt Mabe, Cheryl Cullers and Delores Oates, along with Doug Stanley and Bob Childress attended.
It’s interesting to hear the discussion and see the detail of what it takes to put a budget together. It’s a slow and long process, but necessary.
The first meeting lasted about three hours. The Royal Examiner will break this down into smaller sections to make this long and tedious process somewhat more tolerable.
The first video includes requests from Blue Ridge Opportunities, The Warren Coalition and The Phoenix Project. Watch the presentations on the exclusive Royal Examiner video.
