Any budget revisions or payments made will be brought to the board in July for approval.

There may still be a small amount of um invoices that need to be paid out and closed between now and the end of the month. And this gives Mrs. Cummings the authority to pay any of those bills and to do what she
012needs to do fiscally and then um to bring those things to you July 1st for the board's approval. Anything to add? And we're also still waiting. Is this working?

Um, but as of before I came over here, they're still not here. Um, and we're expecting I don't know about $15,000 still yet to roll in. Um, but that would just give me authority. So, Mrs. Cummings told me that I'm on deck June 30. I may have to come in the evening of or whenever to because all of the physical things are in the old um Weas WOW green screen that you can't log
013on to at home. So, you've got to be here. So I may have to drive back in June 30 and approve those grants. Any questions hearing? None.
