It is you, the people, that make that true. Each of you give to this museum and make it stronger and better. You are helping to shape what BRAHM needs to be, to best serve this community and I thank you. 2016 was a year of growth for BRAHM. As of this past year, we are now debt free. It was a growth year for attendance (up 23.5%), memberships (up 3.5%), and programs! The year was full of highlights such as the Elizabeth Bradford exhibition, generously presented by Wells Fargo Private Bank, and the fabulous opening reception and programming that accompanied the exhibit. The Art Ball transformed the museum into a palette of vibrant color and guests enjoyed an evening of fabulous food and a celebration of the arts, from fine arts to culinary arts. All year long, children’s voices have filled the galleries more than ever as our education program has grown and as we intentionally expand our outreach to families.

    OFFICE OF THE WATAUGA COUNTY COUNTY MANAGER Administration Building, Suite 205 - 814 West King Street - Boone, NC 28607- (828) 265-8000 TDD 1-800-735-2962 - Voice 1-800-735-8262 - FAX (828) 264-3230 MEMORANDUM TO: Board of County Commissioners FROM: Deron Geouque County Manager SUBJECT: Annual Retreat DATE: February 18,2016 Watauga County continues to move in an upward direction regarding its financial condition due to the strong stewardship of the Board of Commissioners. Many old and new challenges will face the County in the coming years. The County's primary revenues - property and sales tax - are experiencing increases that vary from past history. Residential property values are maintaining current levels while commercial properties have seen significant gains in value the past year. Sales tax has averaged a 7.7% increase over the past two (2) years. Current trends indicate sales tax revenue should meet budget projections. Due to several years of delayed capital expenditures numerous needs are being identified and requested as is evident by this year's capital improvement plan. The State is facing the same capital requirements as the County and will request voters to pass the Connect NC Bond for infrastructure projects in March. The State will continue to experience economic and financial pressures that have the potential to see unfunded mandates passed down to the County. Sales tax distribution was a major topic for the General Assembly this past session and may be brought up again during this current session. Watauga County fared well with the comprise solution adopted and avoided a million plus reduction in sales tax revenue.
