Update

UPDATE:

Well, the State of Illinois has found the money they promised for Soil and Water Conservation and the University of Illinois Extension department for this current fiscal year. Soil and Water departments were supposed to receive an increase in their budgets, but the State is not planning on giving it to them. The State Soil and Water department is trying to squeeze the money out of the State, but local offices are not holding their breaths.

Our school are waiting for two payments for the end of the school year, a promised increase from the govenor. It doesn't look likely that they will recieve it. Many districts who counted on that money will be in trouble. In Stark County, the administration was dubious about the increase in funds, so not recieving the money will not hurt that district.

So the State shenanigans are continuing. Remember to call and let your representative know how you feel.
