BUDGET COMMITTEE MEETING
November 11, 2009
Members present: Carmine Fabrizio, Mike Shea, Lori Hogan, Becki Pike, Tom Gately and Bonnie Moroney.
Members excused: Jim Covey
Guests: Georgia Brodeur, Joan Karpf, and Evan Karpf
7:03PM meeting brought to order by Tom Gately.
Tom said there was one correction to the 11/4/09 minutes, that the Budget Committee had a $50.00 reduction from the 2009 budget.
Carmine motion to accept corrected minutes, Mike second and it passed. Tom abstained as he was not at meeting.
Georgia Brodeur came to the meeting to present the Library budget as she had forgotten the Nov. 4th meeting. She presented the budget to the Committee, and Bonnie said that the board had voted last week on this and the only thing they had changed with the telephone from $750. to $500.00, the reason being that they had only spent $312.00 as of November of this year. It was asked it the Library was now on the Time Warner phone system. Bonnie said that she was not 100% sure but felt that since the town building was changed over that one would assume that the library would be the same.
Joan presented the Conservation Commission budget first. She said the membership had gone up for the NHACC and they were donating to the ARLAC which is part of the protection for the Ammonusuc River monitoring. She said that it helps the work that is being done. The balance that is left at the end of the year will have a warrant article put in to move into the special fund that was set up.
Joan then presented the Board of Adjustments proposed 2010 budget. She said that she was not sure about the Secretary. Bonnie said that the amount is part of Rena’s wages, it is minus from the total under4150.10-111 Selectman’s Office Staff. Bonnie said that she would check with Rena and Maryclare and the amount posted against the ZBA could not be correct, nor the amount against the Planning Board, as Rena does work in the office as well for them that should be posted against these also. Bonnie suggested to leave the $2500.00 there.
Joan said that with little building going on they were not having as many meetings so she was taking the Board Members Salaries down to $480.00. Postage down to $100.00, leaving the office supplies at $50.00, advertisements to $250.00 as they were over budget this year. She was not sure about the legal, so wanted to leave it at the $1,250.00, misc at $1.00 and the training and travel at $300.00.
Evan, first presented the Health Officer proposed 2010 budget. He said he did not take a salary so would leave that at $1.00. But he said he was having to travel down to Concord quite a bit for meeting due to all the H1N1 and flu problems, so he wanted to increase that to $350.00. He wanted to change the account #4419.10-301 description to Health Officer Public Education, because he wanted to start doing more education such as presenting some things to the children on the recreation dept, this coming summer. He wanted to decrease the amount to $100.00, and leave the supplies at $75.00.
Evan mentioned the Direct Assistance Welfare leaving at the $15,000.00 and Bonnie said this should be left at the $15,000.00 as the state mandates that towns must supply welfare aid to those in need. Keeping the this years budget total the same as last years.
