01

The FY2026 report covers 07/01/2025 to 06/30/2026.

It certifies 100,535.87 received since 2022 and 5,000.00 spent (p1), 0.00 appropriated or encumbered and not yet spent, and 87,649.42 of unspent and uncommitted money the Borough currently has on hand (p2). It lists one program, the Annual Department Wellness Training Program, at 5,000.00 (p7). The Borough's settlement account, G-02-800-101, printed 08/24/2026, starts from a modified budget of 98,054.42. It paid check 8716 for 5,000.00 to Jennifer Kelly PhD LLC on 04/20/2026, leaving 93,054.42 at 06/30/2026. On 08/17/2026 it paid seven checks for the 2026 National Night Out, 9105, 9106, 9151, 9099, 9100, 9172 and 9092, totaling 5,405.00, leaving 87,649.42. The certified on hand figure is that 08/24/2026 balance to the cent. It deducts 10,405.00 of payments while the report lists 5,000.00 of spending and no other program. The report's own figures, 100,535.87 received less 5,000.00 spent, give 95,535.87, which is 7,886.45 more than it certifies. That gap is the 5,405.00 of National Night Out checks plus 2,481.45 of receipts the account budget leaves out.

The FY2024 report certifies 6,910.56 received between 07/01/2023 and 06/30/2024, 0.00 of interest and 26,181.87 received since the distribution began in 2022.

It certifies 0.00 expended, 0.00 appropriated or encumbered and 60,761.11 of unspent and uncommitted money on hand (p1). It answers No to funding any program (p2). The FY2023 report certifies 0.00 expended through 06/30/2023. On the report's own figures the Borough had received 26,181.87 and spent nothing, so it could not hold more than 26,181.87. The certified on hand figure is 34,579.24 more than every dollar the report says the Borough had received. The Borough's settlement account, G-02-800-101, printed 08/24/2026 for 01/01/2022 forward, records no payment before 04/20/2026. The FY2025 report then certifies 84,467.57 received since 2022, nothing spent and 84,467.23 on hand, 0.34 less than it received.
