The Untold Story of Main Street Economics with MN Auditor Julie Blaha

In today’s Untold Story of Central Minnesota, Arts & Cultural Heritage Producer Jeff Carmack talks once again with MN State Auditor Julie Blaha. This time, the conversation focuses upon documenting history through a deeper investigation into the best practices of local communities regarding how one-time COVID money was spent. With the state’s repeated budget surpluses and with a new revenue stream being introduced through the legalization of marijuana, the way our local governments track and spend money is more important than ever, and Auditor Blaha has ideas on what can give us an accurate look at what is actually happening. Plus, it’s never too early to think about the State Fair as Blaha reveals a first concept of what her crop-art contest entry might be for this year. This program was made possible through support from the Minnesota Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund.
