He advised it reflects the same figures as discussed in detail at the March 16, 1995, meeting. Knutson commented on fund balances and noted the majority of the fund balance will be used to pay for the Plan update. He pointed out the two graphs detailing fund balances and City contributions which were also included for informational purposes. Schultz questioned the impact if the State were to know that the LRRWMO has been operating without a signed JPA. Knutson stated he is unsure if there would be a financial impact but believed the State of Minnesota would probably not look kindly on this situation. Jankowski commented that the LRRWMO is still an organization and has a JPA, it is just not a current one. Motion was made by Ferguson, seconded by Schultz, to accept the 1994 Annual Audit as prepared and submitted by the independent firm of Bruce R. Siegfried, CPA. Vote: 4 ayes, 0 nays. Motion carried.
