County audit outlines inconsistent leave-time reporting across departments and a misclassification of ARPA payroll. Auditors tested a sample rather than 100% of offices, noting the need to align practices with policy and improve documentation before the next audit.

Cross-border tariffs hit Canadian tourism and U.S. jobs
A NPR report highlights how retaliatory tariffs amid a U.S. Canada trade feud reduce cross-border travel and harm tourism. Canadians took 1.7 million car trips to the U.S. in July, a 37 percent drop, while U.S. visits to Canada also declined. In 2024 Canada was a top source of U.S. tourists, spending 20.5 billion and supporting 140,000 jobs.
