    Good afternoon Carol,

     

    Thank you for your email. It looks like you may have forgotten to attach the authority’s approved budget for the current fiscal year?

     

    Once I receive the pertaining documents, I can mark this request as completed on our site. As a reminder, this request asked for:

     

    “…the McDowell County TDA Financial Report for FY 2021-2022, as well as the Annual Line Item Budget for FY 2022-2023.”

     

    I will plan on following up again later this month if I don’t hear back before then.

     

    Appreciate your help!

    Good morning,

     

    Attached is the authority’s approved budget for the current fiscal year. The document includes the approved budget for the prior year. The financial report for the prior year has not yet been completed.

     

    Because your original request was not directly submitted to me, there was a slight delay in our response.
