    Recommend the Treasurer position, if not a licensed CPA, be contingent upon a positive background check. There’s too much to lose if the person filling this position is not of impeccable integrity, regardless of their station. This more than any other position, has potential to be a huge distraction if there is even the slightest hint of impropriety.
