Administrator: Wabasha County making financial progress where possible
To the editor,
Over the years Wabasha County government has diligently worked to continue to improve the fiscal health of the county.
At times, those efforts have felt herculean. This is because the state has passed unfunded mandates to counties that we are required to implement, has reduced county program aid by nearly 10 percent since 2009, and has failed to provide adequate funding for the area’s transportation infrastructure, to name just a few areas of concern.
