Renewal of Lotterease 5 minutes

The biggest change with the new agreement is that Lotterease have moved to a unit count for all applicants rather than just waitlisted applicants. This change reflects the continued investment into infrastructure and personnel to stay ahead of our growth and provide the best service possible. As a result, for a school the size of SLAM, the fee will be about $1,814. However, if you pay for the invoice before the due date, we will honor the current unit rate at last years pricing of $1,050. We can also purchase multiple years at one time. If we purchase 3-years the 4th year is free.

Actions:

  1. Table the renewal of Lotterease until the October Board meeting
