President's report
I am continuing to assist with the treasury team to ensure timely processing of payments and reimbursements. We are also working with our accounting firm to prepare for the auditing of our 2025 financial documents and federal and New York State filings.
Vice President's report
Directors: When inviting for association projects which aren't very well established, and require some degree of "handholding" from SPI side, please provide support to the project as to not overload SPI officers and contractors.
Treasurer's report
The treasury team is continuing to process reimbursements and payments. If there is an urgent need (i.e. other than NET 30) please let treasurer@rt.spi-inc.org know
Secretary's report
Thanks to all directors for their timely responses on the recent face-to-face scheduling poll. Results indicate mid-November of this year presents the best chance of assembling the full board for a series of all-day meetings, whether in person, via videoconference, or some combination of the two.
