Lehman Park financials show reporting errors; staff investigates July 4 gas-delivery shortfall
Summary
Staff told the board that launch-fee monthly and year-to-date figures did not match and committed to reconciling records; staff also reported a fuel delivery issue around July 4 that left the park short on gas and may have produced an estimated $4,000 revenue impact.
During the discussion of Lehman Park financials (item 3.4), staff and board members identified inconsistencies between the monthly launch-fee figures and year-to-date totals for May and June and asked staff to investigate and correct the spreadsheets.
Speaker 5, an unidentified meeting participant, noted the packet shows differing numbers and said staff will check formulas and reconcile the accounts. The transcript includes June launch-fee figures reported by staff as "$3,754.14" for June and a year-to-date figure of "$4,083.14" on a related page; board members flagged the mismatch.
Separately, Speaker 5 described a fuel-delivery failure on July 4: staff discovered the site was low on gas during peak holiday operations, and follow-up showed a listed delivery of 180 gallons on July 3 that did not reconcile with sales records (staff said they had sold roughly 800 gallons during the relevant period). Speaker 5 characterized the incident as "like a $4,000 mistake" and said staff is seeking vendor follow-up, considering remote tank-monitoring devices and obtaining quotes for alternative suppliers.
Staff committed to clarifying the accounting and to follow up with the gas vendor and bring corrected expense and revenue figures to the board.
