The Franco tractor sale amounting to $5100 is currently in dispute and in negotiation with our attorney, Steve Smith, and Mr. Franco’s attorney.
CA - $ 2211.71 SA - $25,257.14 includes $5100 for tractor and $10,540.87 from small CD – this money was put into the SA to get more interest Our operating capital is $10,000 – we should not spend the other $15,000 We thought Mr. Franco was satisfied with the tractor deal and the subsequent renegotiations. We hope to have this settled soon. Budget figures – We are @ $1000 down on greens fees with a month to go We are @ $1000 down on cart fees. The money taken may account for this. School taxes are $280 higher. Gas/diesel are already $200 over budget and with rising gas costs we expect both the gas and diesel lines to be over budget at the end of the year.. We will hold off on getting any more diesel fuel until Frank calls. Pat requested that Frank put in his wish list for next year. D. Lawler moved that we accept the tres. report and E. Schreppel seconded.
