Notice of Motion
From the office of the Treasurer
Brethren;
Lorne Lodge has reduced lodge expenses drastically in the past several months; Wi-Fi has been removed, the antiqued computer has not been replaced, the accounting program which was being used has been discontinued, along with other minor reductions. There is little more we can cut!
With the rising costs of property tax, water delivery, electricity, property and furniture insurance, etc., and the second increase in two years to the assessment paid to Grand Lodge, we have no recourse but to ask the members to approve a dues increase. Please also consider that our annual dues have not increased for several years.
Therefore, please be advised that at this meeting, I, V.W. Bro. John McKnight, or someone on my behalf will proposed the following Notice of Motion:
Effective January 1, 2025 the dues of Lorne Lodge No. 622 will increase by twenty dollars per member with a further increase of ten dollars per member to come into effect on January 1, 2027.
