The FY2024 report certifies 0.00 appropriated or encumbered but not yet spent between 07/01/2023 and 06/30/2024 (p1, question 7). It also certifies 0.00 expended. The books show the Borough appropriating inside that period. Line G-02-24-000-C00-029 took 20,837.00 on 05/08/2024 and was raised by 37,572.55 to 58,409.55 on 05/23/2024 under Resolution 24-167. Line G-02-23-000-C00-029 had held 12,701.00 since 05/03/2023. Neither line paid anything. At 06/30/2024 the Borough held 71,110.55 appropriated and not spent, 58,409.55 of it appropriated in the reporting period. The report says 0.00. The books say 58,409.55. Both cannot be true.
