  2. Moududur Rahman gave the financial reports including the monthly expenses, salaries, etc.. Br. Moudud will be leaving the board and Br. Moin will take over the responsibility temporarily until someone else is willing to take on the role and will help train someone for the position as well. Br. Iftikhar will still volunteer to assist. Those who are leaving the board will email whoever is taking on these responsibilities what the position entails and what needs to be done so that no one is left without any help.
  3. We thank Ferdous Ghazi, Muhammad Azim, Moududur Rahman, and Iftikhar Uddin, who are leaving the board, for their hard work and dedication to this masjid. We hope that they will still be there to help in a less formal manner.
  4. We welcomed new board members who have joined the Board of Trustees, Board of Representatives, and the Standing Committee.
  5. The 2016 Tax Return has been submitted to the accountant. The accountant has requested an extension date for submission. This will be handled by Br. Moin and Br. Ferdous.
  6. The potluck that was to be held on July 7th is cancelled. There will be no potluck for the month of July; the potlucks will resume again in August.
  7. Br. Chari Gul will clean the masjid carpet on Sunday, July 16th at 11:00 am. He will be charging us $0.12/sq. feet for the cleaning. We need to ensure that the masjid is open at that time and will need volunteers there as well to help him. Please email Br. Patwary or Br. Azim if you can spare your time that day.
