Contractor Quarterly Reports
The County contracts with several local agencies to provide social and cultural services for the community. They submit quarterly reports to the County on their activities and the reports are posted on line so that citizens can review how County funds are being spent. The reports are due to the County one month after the quarter ends, and then the County has one month to review and then upload the reports (therefore, a quarterly report might not be available for up to two months after the quarter officially ends.)The fiscal year report for the entire previous year is also posted for comparison. Link to Community Services - either the social services section or cultural services section - to download their reports.
