Carl shared the highlights from the April financial report. The total revenues for the month of April in vouchers were 106% and for the year-to-date they were 107%. Carl also mentioned to the board that there were 3 payrolls in the month of April so the percentage was skewed a bit. Year-to-date is at 81% and that is a reflection of the Vance Terrace closing did offset some of the admin expenses.
