DIRECTOR’S REPORT

Ms. Griffith reported that we are still waiting for a quote from the insurance company on flood insurance. She will report back next month with an update.

Ms. Griffith reported that last Friday, Main Source Bank made an error with the payroll deposit which resulted in no one receiving their pay. The bookkeeping department had to hand-write checks and deliver them to the district administrators for distribution to employees. Mr. Trader stated that if there are any future mistakes, we will likely switch to another bank.

There being no additional business, the Board APPROVED BY MOTION (Deardorff/Goodin) adjournment at 9:23 A.M.

Respectfully submitted,

Connie L. Griffith

Executive Director
