Nothing outstanding and no changes to the interest rate
Jason reported a stop payment on the $3,330 check from Floyd County that was issued on 09/03/26 for invoice FC25-137, Fall Conference Payment. At this time, Shannon and Jason are trying to determine if it is a duplicate payment.
Jason reported that he spoke with the accountant about QuickBooks and states we can purchase a plan with her that is cheaper than originally thought. The Simple Start plan is $26.60 per month/$319.20 annually. Essentials plan is $52.50 per month/$630 annually, and the Plus plan is $80.50 per month/$966 annually. This is still the direction Jason plans to go but is making sure we get everything we need/want, primarily compatibility with Wild Apricot. Jennifer Lampert made a motion for Jason to proceed with his research and Joshua Herman seconded that motion which passed unanimously.
