¹Check number 168330 was used as a continuation check stub for the succeeding check. Check number 168607 was not used because it was used as a wire number in a previous fiscal year.
²Due to the timing differences between assigning a wire number and processing the actual wire transaction through our financial institution, certain wire payments may be out of sequence from the current report. These wire transactions were either reported in the prior month or will be reported in the following month’s report.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
