Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Thanks. Next order of business is public comment. I would ask the commenters to limit their time to 3 minutes. Is there any public comment this evening? Is anyone recording?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Amy:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Good evening. Amy Kates. I\u2019m recording Prudential Committee Meeting, June 23rd<\/sup>, 2014, public comments. I\u2019m still not sure I understand how the Attorney General\u2019s office could give you folks advice about holding these executive sessions, since the taxpayers are neither aware of the discussion, nor have they approved any funds. It would be helpful for me to understand who at the Attorney General\u2019s office you had spoken to, since I had placed a call to the Attorney General\u2019s office as well. Thank you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Any other public comment? Any response to public comment? Public comment is closed. Next item on the agenda is approval of the minutes. Ms. Hadley and I need to approve the minutes of the Prudential Meeting of May 19th<\/sup>, 2014.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Yes, I don\u2019t have them with me, but I have read them, and I saw nothing that I would change.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Thank you. Motion to approve?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I make a motion we approve the minutes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Second. Aye?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Aye.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019m just going to do the other minutes. Have you read the minutes from-<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The 19th<\/sup>? I have.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I make a motion to approve the minutes of 06-02-14, 06-05-14 and 06-19-14. Is there a second?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Second.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 All those in favor?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Aye.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This is the amended item. I need a motion to reappoint Mr. Charles Eager as the district clerk.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Laurie Hadley, I make a motion that we appoint Charles Eager, District Clerk, for the next 3 years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Is there a second?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Marge:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Second.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 All those in favor? Aye.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Aye.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Freedom Hall. They\u2019re revising the drawings for the air conditioning and heating system, and I hope to have those available by the first of July so that we can go out to bid the front door. I\u2019ve gotten a bid for replacing the handicap hardware on the front door from Door Concepts in \u00a0New Hampshire. They have an office in Quincy also. It\u2019s in two parts. One part is for the actual mechanism that operates the open and closing of the door, which is the one that the gears are falling apart in. That, for just those two mechanisms, the cost for that installed is $2,770. Second part of the bid is to replace the crash bars so that they are easier to lock down and easier for people to operate.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Replacing that would also include exterior trim handles, new threshold for lower rods of exit devices, a cylinder for the new exit device and active door leaf, four dress plates for existing holes and wood in the doors, and a lower door sweep for the new threshold, which as you may or may not be aware of, now you can see daylight coming in underneath that door. The finishes for both these products would be dark brown, dark bronze, and that cost for that part is $3,575, for a total of $6,345. I\u2019ve looked to see if I could find another supplier on Thomasnet. \u00a0Thomasnet is where you can go to look up listings of businesses for anything that you can possibly imagine. Thomasnet used to take up an entire shelf in the library of their books. I went to Thomasnet and looked to see if I could find anybody else who does this work within 100 miles of us, and I couldn\u2019t. This company is presently doing Heritage Plantation, and they\u2019re doing work at the new emergency room at Cape Cod Hospital. They\u2019re also doing work at the Falmouth Hospital. I realize it\u2019s over the $5,000 limit that we\u2019re supposed to get competitive bids on. I guess I\u2019ll talk to the people at the county, Elaine Davis, and see if this is a geographical exception, so that we can go ahead and get this fixed.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 There is no geographical exception. You just need to go out and get two non-bidders to go with the one quote you have. Ray Sprinkler, anybody else who is qualified to do the work, if they don\u2019t want to do it, they bid no, that counts, but you\u2019ve got to get 3 quotes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Okay.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The auditors will be here on Tuesday, but the bottom line is you\u2019ve got to prove that you tried to get 3 quotes. 2 nonresponses is the equivalent of this quote and 2 nonresponsive. They\u2019ve got to be nonresponsive, or \u201cI can\u2019t do it,\u201d or, \u201cI don\u2019t want to do it.\u201d Any business locally or anywhere else you want to go, you can give them that same quote. If they can\u2019t do it, they say, \u201cWe\u2019re not going to bid it,\u201d it\u2019s a nonresponse.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Do I need it in writing?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Yes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Before we talk about, I just wanted to add one other thing. I was down at Granite City getting a replacement for the light bulbs. When I was down there, they told me about this General Electric upgrade lighting program, which they will provide you various sizes of light bulbs and fluorescent bulbs just for municipal governments for free. I\u2019ve ordered some light bulbs for the hall.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Very good. I\u2019m all for free.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Did you want to talk about uses and fees?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Yes, I did. When we set the fees last year, we said we would review them in a year and see if we wanted to make any changes. I think what we\u2019re doing is no fee for nonprofits, which includes the church, who however do make a donation every month of, I believe it\u2019s $200 that they give us, something like that.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You\u2019re kidding. Great.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 $50 for Cotuit residents who wanted to use the hall for any kind of a function, and $100 for anyone who was using the hall for profit-making. Are we comfortable with that or do we want to raise them?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The $50, I thought \u2026 Those are for Cotuit residents, right?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We\u2019ve had a wedding reception. We\u2019ve had a birthday party. We\u2019ve had a high school reunion, a lot of things like that.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I don\u2019t know, I think for nonprofits or for commercial enterprises, we probably should have another fee level. What were we charging the people that were doing the yard sales?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We charged them $100 a day.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Since we\u2019re not going to be-<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 That\u2019s the next thing. Are we going to let them continue to use it?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 My personal vote would be no, it\u2019s too hard on the building. We had one user who was very careful and I didn\u2019t see any problems. We have somebody else who has been using it and there have been persistent problems. That user has been spoken to, I believe, and it seems to have fallen on deaf ears.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I think the problem is they hire people to move things in and out and the people don\u2019t get the message.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 They\u2019re not supervised. Any comments?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Marge:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Would you consider it, Fran, if we charged them a lot more for it, to cover the cost of repairing the building?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I would consider it if we charged more, but there has been glass on the floor in here. There has been glass outside. The other person who used it was here supervising the people who are moving.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Right, actually we had 3 different outfits do it. Carrie Elmer, no I guess Carrie never got to use it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Just the 2. The other one, I\u2019ve been here when they\u2019ve been moving stuff out. None of the owners are here to supervise. If they want to be here the entire time it\u2019s being moved, that\u2019s fine.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I think we have to either bar one, allow all or I don\u2019t think we can just bar one.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 No, I don\u2019t. We can vote not to hold the yard sales here, which is unfortunate because it does bring in more money than anything else we do.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Marge:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019m not sure why we should penalize all yard sales because of one careless vendor. It\u2019s not as if we haven\u2019t given them many opportunities to fix it. And I hear you, Laurie, but if somebody comes in and they\u2019re responsible, why shouldn\u2019t we get the income from it?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 You can take a security deposit, hold the check. If they clear out clean, give it back to them and never hit the books. That\u2019s the way most people do that. Same with bid deposits. If you have a culprit who needs to be trained, then the way to train them would be to use a security deposit.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019d be willing to try that with the proviso that the operator stays here when stuff is moved in and out and supervises.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Laurie:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 What do you think is a large enough fee? $500? $1000?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The traditional report goes from year to year to year. Fiscal year 13 is still in audit. That should be coming in clean very shortly. Fiscal 14, I\u2019ll give you a typical statement through pretty much last week. What I\u2019m also going to do is give you this work paper, which is the same report, only more like we give to the auditors of the commonwealth and to the taxpayers at the end of the year. What I would like to do is talk about 14 year end adjustments. Everything is in good shape if they have a setting. Fire and water department have indicated no concerns for their year-end budget. The first one I\u2019d like to go through with you is from the second page. It is Freedom Hall. Freedom Hall needs \u2026 The first year we ever did an appropriation by the district at the district meeting for a salaried employee, was during the 13 meeting for the 14th<\/sup> year. As it\u2019s turned out, that fellow has incurred slightly more than the budget. We need to do a reserve fund transfer of $425.<\/p>\n

I would like to have somebody make a motion to transfer $425 from the reserve fund to the salary and wage line. Historically you voted this as one big lump sum. Then the bylaw requires, so we took a stab at what a first full year would look like when we did the budget. It\u2019s emergency and unforeseen in that it was the first year of trying to manage the building. I\u2019ve demonstrated it to you in such a way that we have one payroll left. He works on Tuesdays I believe. We have his payroll through tomorrow, which will be on this week\u2019s payroll warrant. That $200 shows incumbent on my spreadsheet, is how I\u2019m proving if you give us a $425 transfer, that budget will be in perfect balance at the end of the year. That $200 is left to go. If you do not vote a transfer, then he will not get paid this week.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m pretty confident that as it\u2019s showing right now, we have some ups and downs. The big down is offset by the big up at the moment. The buildings has a fairly good turn back in it. I\u2019m sorry, the other way around. The [inaudible 17:40] service is also [inaudible 17:44] that line.\u00a0 That building line is [sixth to the bad 17:51]. The next one down is \u2026 Oil and gas is the bad one. The next one down is the building maintenance. Of the 55, we spent to 21. There isn\u2019t much left to go between now and the end of the month. Unless you\u2019ve got something cued up that we\u2019re not aware of, this budget is pretty much complete. That will turn back to 34. The alarm was running deficit because we spent quite a bit of money on the alarm system this year. We had an $800 budget and we spent $3900.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 How could we have spent $3900 on the alarm company?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I don\u2019t know. Something got charged. Hold on. Nemic was paid $3,506 on 07-16. It was paid $90 in December\/January and it was paid $330. The $3,506 payment on Prudential Committee Warrant number 1 is a charge that was $3,500. I don\u2019t know what it was for.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 That was for the installation of the system.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Okay.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 That expense is offset by that big savings up at the top, so I\u2019m not proposing we do a reserve fund transfer to zero out all the negativity on the right-hand side.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Going forward, except if it\u2019s repairs needed for the smoke detector system, it should only be $300 a year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I think we budgeted accordingly for 15, but we\u2019re not talking about 15. We\u2019re talking about 14. So 14 you have exceeded your budget on the alarm, whereas you have not exceeded the budget on the building, which is about . Everything else seems to be okay. The insurance, I believe, I haven\u2019t audited, we\u2019ve got 13 auditors in play \u2026 the annual cost for insurance is in excess of $800. They tried to invoice partial payments. I\u2019m believing that what may have happened was that we have a July 1 due date and we have a July 1 warrant in the cue that will pay the entire premium on the first of July. We\u2019re adequately budgeting 15. I have a suspicion there was a payment made in 13 that was the first quarterly payment of 14. I think we\u2019re going to have that relief of $2300 this year, because I think the other payment got buried in last year\u2019s. I don\u2019t expect any more insurance. I know we\u2019ve paid. I know we\u2019re going to pay a lump sum, $8100-8200 come July 1 on 15. We also have that.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I think other than the salary line, which is a segregated line, I think the lower end of the budget is fine. There is some highs and lows, but I think it\u2019s going to close up fine. Then we\u2019ll worry about encumbering and continuing to incorporate because they\u2019re not all in my model yet. I\u2019ve got it working and proved that it\u2019s time now. Whether or not we carry over the $19,334.61, that hasn\u2019t been touched for the water and mold remediation as a discussion we can have at the July meeting. I\u2019m going to want, before the end of July, whatever you want carried forward. Otherwise we\u2019re going to close them down. That budget we\u2019ve taken care of.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The only other budget that needs some attention is the finance department, and that\u2019s on page 1. Again, the salary line is fine. We have ample funds on the salary. We\u2019ll be turning back something of $6,000, probably closer to $6,500. I\u2019ve pretty much cranked through this on the encumbrance column, all the bills I think we\u2019ll continue to pay through the back end of the year. We still have all the elected officials to pay. We still have a couple of employee pays. We have the clerk to pay. I\u2019m assuming that your appointment goes with the status quo clerk salary. We\u2019re good for fiscal 15 with the 25 we budgeted. We\u2019re good with that line this year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When you get into the expenses, and again, the expenses are up and down, I\u2019m waiting for an invoice from your legal counsel. I\u2019ve estimated that\u2019s going to be upwards of $2,500. He did the district meeting. He\u2019s been doing some Attorney General stuff. I\u2019m just guessing he\u2019s going to hit us with something. I believe he\u2019s $250 an hour. I\u2019m figuring about 10 hours will come in. It would be helpful, if any of you are in touch with him, to let him know we want our bill. You do? Please get that to us so we can process that on the warrant. Thank you. Do you know what it is? That one is fine. The contract with the audit firm, they\u2019ve actually started the 14 audit. They do some field testing when they\u2019re doing the finish up on the prior year. We\u2019ve already paid them $750 on the 14 audit, and they\u2019ll be doing field testing on that while they\u2019re finishing up the 13 audit as well. 15 as a matter of fact, so some field testing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That line is okay. I fully encumbered the line item. I can\u2019t recall if they wanted the whole $12,500 or if it\u2019s slightly less, but we\u2019ll encumber that. You\u2019ve done two amendments to our contracts, which can be handled pretty much within the budget. The two lines that are most in need of attention that we need most of the emergency unforeseen was the banking fees. I\u2019m looking for a reserve fund transfer to compensate. We had a $500 budget. Our expenditures year to date are at 22-27. $1,775 if I budget an estimate of another 50 through the back end of the year. We should be fine with that transfer. That would get us just about to where we are right now plus the $50. If you want to do them one at a time, we can do that, and then we\u2019ll cover the second one.<\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Thank you very much. Everything else, as you see, is modest ups and downs. Nothing of critical nature there. The real kick in the pants this year for this budget was unemployment insurance. I\u2019m looking for a transfer of $27,500. We originally budgeted $6,200. We knew when we put this budget together at district meeting last year that we had some modest cost going on. It was uncertain as to what was going to happen. We clearly did not know we were going to be swapping assistant treasurer, or whatever you want to call that position, which resulted in an unemployment insurance hit. We also had a series of firefighter unemployment and a fire department clerical unemployment charge that floats for the year. We\u2019re still currently paying at least the cost of two of those benefits. As you\u2019ll see, I have a bill in hand that will hit the next warrant for $2,850. I budged another $3,000 because I don\u2019t think that\u2019s going to be any change. Just to be safe, I threw $3,000 in there.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When I budget the $5,850 for the May invoice and the June invoice, I\u2019m showing that our total expense this year is going to be about $33,600 and change. We budged $6,200. If we transfer $27,500, that will bring us up to $33,700 what we\u2019ve paid year-to-date and what I think we\u2019re going to have without breaking around that. $27,500 transfer would be in order also.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I make a motion to transfer from the reserve fund, $27,500 to cover the unemployment insurance. Is there a second?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Thank you very much. The line that shows below article 4 on this statement, article 3 on the reserve fund, you just voted $29,700 out of $50,000, which leaves a turn back of about $20,300. Also, our budget will turn back to $6,500 in the salary. The prior year encumbrances, I believe we had carried the full appropriation for the auditor, and I think as it turned out, some of the things that we did helped him save some money. I think we\u2019re going to turn back $3,200 on that. I didn\u2019t see any other reason why he\u2019s going to bill me for anything [for 12 27:38]. The Northern Data computer system was acquired a couple of years ago, was a $25,000 appropriation. The software was procured. Training took place, but the PC it rides on, the computer itself, was never dealt with, nor was the printer. A lot of our havoc this year has been to do with computers and printer issues more than anything else. We\u2019re in the process of taking delivery of a new \u2026 We also have XP, which has no support, which is causing other problems as well.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We\u2019re upgrading a new PC with much higher end capacity and Windows 8 application that will allow us to not get bounced off the Internet and have problems with [inaudible 28:30]. I\u2019m sorry, but we\u2019re not buying it to satisfy you. We\u2019re going to satisfy the gods that we need to satisfy. Anyway, that\u2019s going to be expended out, and what I\u2019m showing you on this is I believe we\u2019re going to turn back about $11,000. We don\u2019t need anymore software, hardware or anything else. We\u2019ll have our printer. I believe we were asked to also include a copy capacity so the printer will be able to do copy, I think for Tony. I\u2019m going to have to run downstairs. Other than that, this budget will be turning back over $20,000 with the $20,000 from the reserve fund. It\u2019s in excess of 40.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In effect, with the transfers, other than the fact that you\u2019ve covered salary down below, the unemployment is the only thing that really cracked the head this year. When all is said and done, the turn backs will be pretty equal to what the reserve fund began with. We\u2019ll be out maybe $10,000. Finance department is very mature. Everything in there is pretty well hard calculated. I think we\u2019re in good shape. I think you\u2019re going to see that turn back, the reserve fund turn back. Fire department is currently sitting on just shy of a quarter of a million dollars, when I full encumber their one capital item. The turn back there is going to be substitute.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The water department, we were going to ask for a transfer of their salaries because they under-funded their salaries, but several of the employees have terminated, so we don\u2019t believe the water department salary is at risk anymore. They are currently showing about $12,000 to get them through the back end. Their operating budget has never been at risk. They currently show about 126 where half of the fire department is. Freedom Hall is looking like it\u2019s okay and the budget side, we\u2019ll deal with the articles. Street lights, I believe we need to encumber some street lights because I believe we have underpaid Semans about 5 invoices from what I can determine. You\u2019ll see I\u2019ve got a 32-25 encumbrance there. It\u2019s basically to cover the unpaid invoices. They\u2019ve been notoriously bad billing us, in all of my clients, not just us.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I think we will, if we don\u2019t get those invoices in before we run our last line, we will encumber enough to make sure that budget closes out clean. The library is zeroed out. Debt service, we get to $350 that we budgeted for temporary interest we never needed to use. Health benefits, I\u2019ve analyzed them. I\u2019m speaking in my normal voice. I will try but I am not going to be \u2026 Well, and you know what? It\u2019s not my fault. I\u2019m a human being. I talk normal. You need to be recognized by the chair for number one. I will talk as loud as I must. All right, I will. How\u2019s that? I will speak as loud as I must.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fran:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Please.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Don\u2019t thank me. I don\u2019t need your thanks. I guess I\u2019m done. Excuse me, I was speaking about the benefits budget, before I was rudely interrupted. The appearance is that there were 11 invoices for that fiscal year. I again believe that the historical deficiency was that we pay the July cost out of the June prior year budget. We had budged 12 months for 15. We will pay the July cost out of the 15 budget. To the best of my knowledge, we have paid the 12 prior. There\u2019s a good size turn back in that budget because we only paid 11 invoices. The transfers are all 0. We transferred what was appropriate. The articles are still pending, as I have said before. You have a very good synopsis of every line item, every budget for fiscal 14. The two transfers we have voted put us in good shape coming out of the year, and it would appear we will have a substantial amount of unexpended expenditures that were budgeted to turn back at the end of the year. That would conclude the fiscal 14 report.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As far as 15 goes, we haven\u2019t started yet, but we will have a warrant for you to sign that will be dated July 1 that will take care of the retirement assessment, the insurances that are due July 1 and the cost of benefits that are due July 1. Those will be done in such a way that they will be able to be signed, the warrant, the checks mailed and arrived to the proper venues for July 1. We have a perfectly set up first warrant for fiscal 15 and we have a very well balanced and accounted for 14. I would say this is the first time that the Prudential Committee has ever seen anything like this in June relative to the year coming to the end. As much as I might not speak loud, I certainly do my work when I need it done and delivered unlike previous employees. Just to set the record straight, those who seem to think that I\u2019m an employee of this district need to learn that I am not.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I\u2019m an independent contractor that works for a corporation that has a contract with this district to provide professional services. That\u2019s it. I think that should clear up any questions that people had that want to complain about how I get paid, or what I\u2019m getting done and I will present to you the amount I have written off for the excess hours I have provided the district, because it was a very poor job done of disclosing how detrimental the prior employee was to this district, and badly in the hole this district was, not only 11 was undone when I came in mid year 13, 12 was undone, and 13 was not even touched. I have cleaned up 11, 12, 13 is in audit, 14 is in good order coming out of this month, and 15 will begin on time. I think that is the best report that I can give you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I also don\u2019t believe that you will see me at most meetings going forward of this board because if people think that my soft spokeness is a deliberate attempt to violate the open meeting laws, then you\u2019re better off without me here. I will communicate to the board and the chair through emails with my reports and you won\u2019t need me here to whisper as one individual calls me, wisperjet. I will not be attending your meetings so you don\u2019t have complaints to the Attorney General about a board because a contractor isn\u2019t speaking loud enough. I think we\u2019ll solve the problem with the lack of sound, by not coming. If you need me, I\u2019ll be happy to come, but otherwise I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a prudent use of my time.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When you see how much I\u2019ve written off because I\u2019ve given you more than I\u2019m supposed to, then you\u2019ll understand why I can\u2019t stand people who want to complain and allege improprieties on my part when I am donating thousands, tens of thousands of dollars of my time to this district since I got here. I will not donate anymore. Fiscal 15 will be my last year. I will not bid, do anymore work for this district. I\u2019ll put you on notice now that about 6 months from now you need to start looking for somebody to do what my company does, because I will never subject my company to what it\u2019s been subjected to by residents of this district going forward. Thank you. I will stay for your executive session.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mike:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We are buying it from the company that services the equipment. It\u2019s below $5,000, so we\u2019re not going to go looking for a problem. We know who services us now. We\u2019re going to give them the business and they will continue to service us.<\/p>\n

We have not talked about it very much in public. I came very close at the district meeting. I understand that you have a great deal of respect, some of you, for the former treasurer. I worked for her for many years and she did a good job. However, in the last several years, I understand she had some serious illness. I don\u2019t know whether that was the cause. I don\u2019t know what it was, but she had certainly let things go. She did not keep up with all the laws. She just was no longer doing a good job, and we owe Mr. Daley such a big vote of thanks for what he has done for us.<\/p>\n
