Scott Ward delivered the treasurer’s report inclusive of current paint reserve and general reserve balances. There are two Premier Timed Savings accounts held at First Bank, one for paint reserve and another for general reserve. These accounts are the equivalent to a Certificate of Deposit. In addition, a new Timed Savings account was opened at Chase Bank. A sum of $252,000 was moved to Chase so the total funds in First Bank did not exceed the FDIC maximum insured limit of $250,000 by a large amount. This Chase Bank account will be used as if it is our Wealth Management account.
