I believe it is a "slush fund" used to reduce crime. Midnight basketball is/was an example. Perhaps, baseball once spring really arrives. Think of it as a TPD outreach for those not impacted by the BCR. One of America's newspapers probably thinks it is a great idea...because they care and it makes them feel good.

Assets...Income....Expenses...control...accountability?? Not a clue. Maybe Scout knows........
