At each monthly meeting of the West Marlborough Township supervisors, longtime secretary/treasurer Shirley Walton presents a financial report. It's normally routine: deposits, bills paid, and the balances in the various funds. But in the past few months, it seems that one bank where the township maintains a $70,000 balance has been charging a $15-per-month "lack of activity" fee on the account.
This has greatly rankled the frugal Mrs. Walton. She told the supervisors at the August meeting that she complained to the bank manager, who assured her that the fees, now totalling $45, would be reimbursed.
The bank will so far remain nameless in this column, but we'll see what happens at the September meeting.
