CIP COMMITTEE MEETING
24 AUGUST 2010

Members present: George Brodeur, Tom Gately, Lori Hogan, Mark Catalano, and Bonnie Moroney

Excused; Jeff Duncan, Donna Foster, Ken Mills, Evan Karpf, and Mike Brunetti

Guest: Sue Kraable

Meeting brought to order at 7:10PM by Lori Hogan

Lori read the letter that George had put together for the department heads. Bonnie will make copies and distribute them to all the departments.

Sue asked if we have asked the auditor Karen Carew about the inventory that was prepared for the audit for anything $5,000 or more. It also includes the roads, etc. Bonnie said no but we would look into this.

One of George’s questions is the contents of the fire trucks, to whether the inventory is included in the price of the truck or listed separately. The roads are also assets and should be on the inventory. It is important that we get these together.

George said that he wanted to update the letter for the dept. heads before sending to them. He said he would update it and resent it to Bonnie. George said he would also send out an e-mail to them as well and attach the spread sheet that we have with their inventory. So that they have that as a starting point to add to.

Mark said that he and Evan had tried to get together to work on the communication end but not luck so far.

Bonnie said that she was writing something up using the power point from Kevin that used to work at North Country Council and would put it in the newsletter, so that people become aware that things are going on. She also said that she had found out it would cost $300.00 to set up a new slot on the town’s web page for minutes, so that won’t be happening this year. Sue suggested that the minutes and notices could be put under the Planning Board as they are the group above this committee.

Bonnie also suggested that we might want to consider a line on the 2011 budget for any expenses for printing, etc that we may come up with.

The committee discussed that it seems hard to get people to understand why it’s good to fund the Capital reserve funds. Bonnie suggested that maybe we should keep it simple, such as explaining that if you go to a bank for a loan on a house and you have $10,000.00 to put down payments will be very high per month, but if you save and go to the bank with $50,000.00 down it would take the a lot off of your monthly payments.

The next meeting will be Sept. 14th at 7PM

George motioned to adjourn the meeting at 7:45, Tom second and it was passed.
