AUBURN — Once again, the Androscoggin County Budget Committee was frustrated by the seven county commissioners and the county treasurer not appearing at its meeting Wednesday to review the 2016 budget.

The committee unanimously agreed to send a letter to the commissioners, imploring them to join the process.

"It is unfortunate that the Board of Commissioners has chosen as a collective and elected body not to participate in the budget process that is so vital to public representation and stewardship," the Budget Committee wrote.
