Summary

Committee members reconciled the fall festival budget, discussed a reported $1,895 positive balance and leftover 2024 funds, and asked organizers and staff to confirm sponsor payments and outstanding invoices before committing to new expenses.

Members reviewed the festival accounting and sponsorship status after organizers presented preliminary numbers showing a modest positive balance. One member summarized the spreadsheet, saying, "Budget right now, Lindsay, and it says we are positive $1,895," and staff noted that some payments (including a check to First Alarm) had been processed after the draft budget was prepared.

Committee members asked organizers to cross-check which sponsors had paid, identify missing payouts, and provide a verified list before allocating remaining funds. Staff confirmed that sponsor dollars roll into the next fiscal year and that certain leftover funds from 2024 were already accounted for in the present fiscal calculation. The committee requested a follow-up email with reconciled totals and outstanding obligations.
