Administrative Director Faye Morrow

The Mayor is the chief financial officer of the City of Winchester, and he is given tremendous support by the Winchester City Council. The Administrative Director, Faye Morrow, under the supervision of the City Administrator, Beth Rhoton, works to employ the proper financial accounting procedures that affect our office. This consists of the payment of all invoices and billings that come into the office from all the department heads within the city. We record and deposit daily the cash that comes into the office from our Swimplex, property taxes, court fines, state monies and other miscellaneous revenues. We record and document all expenditures to the proper line items within our budget document, with the Capital Outlay items being the largest expenditures incurred by the City. These consist of the Highway 64 Drainage Project, the Highway 41A By-Pass Project, the Dry Creek Project, and the High School Construction Project.

We feel that we are spending our tax dollars wisely, and appreciate any and all input from the citizens of our city. We believe that to keep the City of Winchester the strong government entity that it has become, we should ALL work as a TEAM.
