Roxy Theatre board refuses access to nonprofit’s records

Thayer’s salary doubled in four years from $46,754 in 2011 to $92,883 in the 2014 tax year.

Requests for board meeting minutes going back 10 yearsA aA when Kitterman said talks likely began of the arrangement a were denied by Roxy board chair StacyA Turner on May 26 because they were “overly burdensome.”

In an e-mailed response to questions and requests, Turner and two other members of the executive board said that after being made aware through management of financial concerns, the board collected all pertinent audits, tax records and financial statements to obtain a picture of the financial stateA of the organization.

aFirst, your request is overly burdensome,” Turner wrote. “Second, I do not believe there is any legal authority for same, accordingly I am denying that request on behalf of the board.a

In response, The Leaf-Chronicle narrowed its request to board minutes related to using building fund capital campaign donations for operating expenses and any board minutes relating to salary increases for Thayer and McDonald.

Again, that request was denied.

On May 27, The Leaf-Chronicle again revised its request and asked for board minutes for the last year, a list of board members as it stood Jan.
