      What NY councils are you tracking? Last I heard, Suffolk County Council voted against merger with Theodore Roosevelt Council.

      Membership continues to decline?

      By Tron · Posted

      My count is 230 councils with 4 currently known folding/merging into other councils (2 in NY, 2 in CA) right now. You're $57 is a fair market estimate of the cost to support a CE, toss in the cost of the other non district serving professionals (director of field services, director of camping/program, comptroller, staff financial accountant/advisor, registrar, etc ... )and that cost rockets up. The crazy part is that if you review the NAM videos for finance there are only like 20 councils or less that are financially stable, the majority are "stable but in trouble"., about 40 councils are ready to go bankrupt any moment.

      Chapter 11 announced - Part 14 - Plan Effective

      By Tron · Posted

      I think everyone is on this site. Haters, lovers, perps, survivors, various lawyers and spies for the firms, and everyone in between. Patt_00's lawyer telling him to stay off of here until the case is done was wise advice.

      Site issues with long on

      By RememberSchiff · Posted

      My guess - it could, in part, be the growing blacklist I use to foil bad actors (spammers, brute force attackers,...) or something(s) more. A forum administrator could better analyze the problem than a moderator. @SCOUTER-Terry @Eagle1993
