CHAPTER ARCHIVES – Ed Galvin reported that Syracuse University is holding the archives of CNY ARMA. Currently there are four boxes of CNY ARMA records. Ed distributed a draft SU Deposit Agreement for Board review. The group agreed that the chapter should pay SU for the service of maintaining and storing the chapter archives and discussed access and reproduction guidelines. Ed will make changes to the Deposit Agreement as per the discussion and will forward it to the Board via e-mail for further review.
CHAPTER BANK ACCOUNTS – The group had previously discussed the possibility of moving some chapter funds to a CD account. Ed Galvin suggested setting up two staggered CD accounts of $1,000 each. The group discussed the suggestion and asked Ed to check on rates for savings accounts and other CD accounts. This issue will be discussed further at the July planning meeting.
FINANCIAL REPORT- Ed Galvin distributed the Treasurer’s Report dated 5/24/07 showing a balance of $6,265.19. It was noted that $300 is still outstanding from Iron Mountain for sponsorship of the March meeting. Ed has asked Dave Langevin to follow up on this.
