The
following resolution was approved by the board in order to facilitate the
treasureÕs job:
Resolved:
In as
much as the bylaws of the company require dual signatures on checks exceeding
$1000, and in as much as the company routinely does business in excess of $1000
w/ the following vendors, and in as much as the company routinely makes
payments and transfers electronically, therefore it is resolved that
inter-company transfers between Mount Kemble Lake
Association and The Lakeshore Company as well as payments to the following
vendors throughout the calendar year 2011 have the defacto
approval of the Board of Directors:
Allied
Biological
CW Backshall Landscaping
NJDEP
Budget and Finance
Somerset
Hills Bank
It
is further resolved that the approving signature of a trustee or director
of the company on an invoice presented by any vendor constitutes a defacto second "signature" on the
subsequent electronic payment of that invoice. In support of this
resolution, the treasurer's monthly report will list all payments of $1000 and
above that have been made to all vendors since her last report.
The board approved a request for
a gas line to be run through
