The minutes of the October 1, 2001 Budget/Finance regular meeting were approved as
presented.
At the October 1st meeting, Duke and Larry presented two proposals for revised budgets
for the enterprise funds. The Clerk-Treasurer requested the committee make a decision
regarding whether they want to go with one of these proposals and if so, which one. The
committee examined the resolution but no decision was made. They wanted to look more
closely at the budget figures.
It was stated that during the budget process, the budget for Dick Larsen's contract
services was cut. Funds will be depleted by mid-year and Mary wanted to know if they
plan to continue the contract and if so, where the funds will be transferred from.
The committee wants to retain Dick Larsen's services.
ComSense, Inc. presented a proposal to contract with Qwest for Centrex 21 service. Bud
questioned this and felt the committee accepted a proposal to audit the phone bills, not to
enter into a five-year contract. The committee would like the ComSense representative,
Vicki Ross, to attend the November 19th Budget/Finance meeting to get more
information.
The financial statements were presented. Mark made the motion and Ken seconded it to
approve the statements, subject to a conversation with Mary to verify that ~here is nothing
unusual.
