I am pleased to report that full funding was restored for Cooperative Extension and other agencies in Strafford County for FY09 on Monday, March 30. Here is the organizational response to the vote taken by the Delegation.

Overall, throughout the state, seven of the 10 counties are on a calendar fiscal year and they have all passed their budgets supporting extension. Sullivan, Grafton and Hillsborough are on a July 1 fiscal year so it will be another three months before they take final budget action and we are anticipating support in those counties as well.
