Treasurer Reports - Lion Roger
- AGLC called re outstanding reports so we faxed them updated info with balances to Feb 2017. They called back next day to inform us they have accepted the faxed report information, but that we were to be assessed a $100 late reporting fee. I have emailed them requesting a paper invoice detailing the charges and indicating where the check is to be sent. Current balance in Casino account is 26,044.01 and we hope to use all this for upcoming playground equipment purchases at Lions Park and Fish Pond. Lion Alex to seek approval for same from AGLC. Moved to approve payment to AGLC - all OK.
