 Crowing County has received two financial awards from the Government Finance Officers Association. Crowing is one of only five counties throughout Minnesota's 87 counties to receive both the Excellence in Financial Reporting and Outstanding Achievement in their popular annual financial report. This is the fourth consecutive year the county had been recognized for all of its efforts. It really says a lot, a great testament to the financial reporting that's done in Crowing County. And what that provides to our citizens is transparency in the process so that they're aware that they can pick up a report and really take a look at what actually is happening in Crowing County with their finances, and they can see exactly where their tax scholars go. The link to view the annual report can be found on our website at lptv.org.
