Minutes obtained by CKNW and never posted online by the Hillcrest Community Centre Association appear to show the books are short some money.
 
In the minutes of a meeting on August 23rd it says an audit has found close to 30-thousand dollars missing.
 
But Chair Jesse Johl says things aren't how they appear and it is actually a fiscal oversight by the Park Board.

"Basically it was money that hadn't been remitted to the association and they were you know very very late some of it was almost a year past due but the matter was brought to their attention and they admitted yeah it was late and they quickly paid up."

As for why the minutes were never posted online Johl said it is a Volunteer Board with a lot on its hands but he would make sure they get posted.

    This is the most blatant attempt to create a. News story out of a non event that. I have seen on this site. Shame on CKNW for such shallow and selserving reporting.

      @ChrisM_18 I really think the Top Dog is losing all credibility.

    This radio station lost all credibility when they fired Rafe Mair. They have been going down hill ever since.

    First of all - this guys sounds like he is related to the BC rail folks or the KSA group and etal.....
    Second of all - I am sick of groups using the excuse 'they are JUST volunteers"
    Third and foremost - if you put money on the books BEFORE you get it - you should hand in your calculator - OH you don't own one? aha!!

    This is NOTHING new for communicty groups
    Never TRUST anyone or the paper it is OR IS NOT written on
    ASK QUESTIONS - and demand answers
    BEFORE it is too late
