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.
