OLD BUSINESS: 
1.  Town Report – Ann said that she sent out a draft of the report.  Discussion.  She will update the draft resend it before it goes to the Auditors.
 
NEW BUSINESS:
1.  Town Meeting Legislation discussion with Kirk White.  Ann congratulated Kirk on his recent election as our Representative to the State Legislature.  He was invited to addend to meet and greet and discuss legislation issues.  He said he wanted to reach out and let people know that he is available to anyone.  He intends to let Towns know of any legislation that might have an impact on them.  He also said he was available to attend a Select Board meeting on a regular basis if asked.  Kirk said that there is a bill being submitted that is designed to allow towns to switch to Australian ballot or push back Town Meetings to warmer weather when they could be held outside.  He added that this might also be able to be decided on a case-by-case basis.  The additional cost associated with an Australian ballot might be added by the Governor to the State budget so that some reimbursement to the Towns might be available.  Ann asked what he is hearing about towns going with Australian ballot.  The biggest logistical issue is Warning the candidates.  Mona and Joyce both appreciated his appearance and noted that it was more than other officials have done in the past. 
Ann said that she and Trish attended a Webinar today and deadlines make her feel anxious.  Ann said that her biggest concern is attracting candidates and having enough time to get word out.  Some of the deadlines noted are January 14 – last day for submitting petitions for Articles and begin firming up the Warning; January 25 – last day for candidates to submit consent forms to get name on the ballot; January 31 – ballot and Warning must be posted; February 10 - ballots must be available for early and absentee voting; and February 20 – the first day that an informational meeting can be held, and Town Report must be received by the voters.  Trish said that she felt she could get a letter or postcard out to the voters with information including ballot requests, etc.
2.  November Financial Report.  Ann made a motion to table this to the next Regular meeting.  Seconded by Joyce.  All in favor.
3.  2021 Budget Warrant – Articles.  Ann made a motion to table this to the next Special Budget Meeting.  Seconded by Joyce.  All in favor.
4.  Town Hall Building Committee – Update.  Ann said that the bids for the project had been accepted and the lowest bid awarded.  The necessary paperwork has been sent to each company for their completion.  It was decided to break down the project and award them (concrete cutting and removal, excavation, footings, and rebar, etc) to separate companies.  Unless there are contingencies, the project cost is $22,000.  The project may start as soon as next week.
5.  Better Places Grant.  Louis proposed that the Town apply for this grant.  He said that he had spoken with both Betty Warner and Sarah Gallagher and it was felt that the Select Board should be the ones to authorize it.  Louis offered to write up the proposal and present it to the State.  The deadline is January 22, 2021.  It would need to be decided what project the grant would be used for or would a new project be created.  Promoting Pittsfield as a community space for its residents was mentioned or putting some money towards the Town Hall.  He suggested that the Board look over the paperwork and see what the requirements are.  It was noted that the project would need to be completed by August 31, 2021.  Louis was asked about matching funds.  Letters of support from various Town groups would also be needed.  Ann said she would like to entertain a more concise proposal.  Louis said he would touch base by email next week.  The Board thanked him for attending the meeting tonight.

Ann called the meeting to order at 5:04pm.  Seconded by Joyce.  All in favor.
 
A motion to approve the Minutes of the Special Budget Meetings on December 3rd and 8th was made by Ann and seconded by Mona.  All in favor.
 
Old Business:
1.  Highway, Cemetery, General Fund Budgets – Trish asked about concluding the budget process.  Ann said that she put Budget on the Regular Meeting Agenda and noted that a Special Meeting can always be called if needed.  But to really finalize the budget, the anticipated tax rate needs to be determined. 
General Fund:
Ann asked about the Undesignated Fund and Trish said that would be almost the last item.  Ann asked for clarification on some storm damage reimbursement items.  Trish said that some of the money is from HUD and some from FEMA.  They are related to buying and demolishing the house on Lower Michigan Road.  FEMA has completed its payments for this and for the cemetery.  The State has not paid its portion yet.  Discussion.  Ann felt that a figure should be added to Income for what the State owes, presuming it will be received in 2021.
-          Refuse:
     SW Management/Program Fee - The amount of $6,700 was removed and if the voters do not
          approve, money from the Contingency Fund can be used.
-          Maintenance:
     Sand Shed – amount reduced to $0.
                    Fire Alarm – increase to $650 (the alarm is for Town Hall and Town Office Building)

December 17, 2020
 
-          Dues and Contributions:
     Rutland Restorative Justice – request for funds declined
-          Budget Disbursements:
     Town Hall – Trish added a line item for a Contingency Fund.  The money came back from Irene
          and was unexpected. Discussion as to a line item or Article.  Board opted for line item. 
-          Town Officer Education – reduce to $500
Highway:
-          Income:
     Undesignated Funds – this will be the last figure to insert in the budget.  As in past years, any
     positive figure rolls into the next year and helps reduce the tax rate.  Discussion about other
     ways to dispose of undesignated funds.  Could be applied towards the payoff of an item or
     offset the tax rate?  It could be split and applied to several items.  Trish noted that she will not
     have this figure until the second week in January after reconciling the account.
-          Grant Expense:
     Sand Shed Grant – the Town has $7,000 of the $70,000 match.  $63,000 would be due from
     the Town.  It was felt that reimbursements should go back into the Sand Shed and not in the
     HW fund.  It can then be redesignated and close out the Sand Shed line item.
 
The Board felt that another meeting was needed. 
 
Next Meeting Date: Wednesday, January 6, 2021 at 4:00pm.  If more time is needed, another meeting can be held on Thursday, January 7, 2021 at 5:00pm.
 
Ann made a motion to adjourn the meeting at 6:00pm.  Mona seconded.  All agreed.

1.  General, Highway, Cemetery budgets

ADJOURN:
 
Ann called the meeting to order at 4:01pm.  Joyce seconded.  All in favor.
 
The Approval of Minutes was tabled to the next meeting to allow everyone to review them.
 
Old Business:
1.  General, Highway, Cemetery budgets
Trish said she spoke with the IT company, Saguaro Technologies regarding the $1,500.00.  This amount is for the labor changing over the computer system to the new one.  It is a one-time charge.  The Board discussed where this money would come from. There will be a $475 monthly fee. The changeover will occur on December 28thand 30th.  The Board questioned what the December charges would be, and Trish said she would check with Brian Davis.  
 
Trish indicated that the Town’s Medical insurance company is now charging $60 as an administrative fee for managing the HRA funds for Trish and George. Board agreed to add sub line item in the GF and the Highway fund under the HRA line item. 
 
Joyce wanted to discuss further the increase in the Assistant’s pay. Following discussion, it was decided that all pay increases for town employees will not be considered until staff have been on the job at least one year. The Librarian’s pay was also addressed further.
 
·      Mileage – Town Officers – Joyce felt that the mileage costs could be cut and cited ways of doing that.  $500.00
 
Mona asked Trish to check with Mascoma Bank to see if they would “gift” a check scanner to the Town.  This would reduce mileage to and from the bank to make deposits as Trish was leery of sending check deposits through the mail at this time.
 
·      Bond Repayment- this is higher because the Office Building fund is depleted. Increase to $45,385.00.

 
·      Computer Fund – zero. Board agreed that purchases of computer hardware should come from the Reserve computer fund. 
 
Tabled the Parks & Grounds Equipment Fund, Town Hall Phase, PVFR Truck Fund, and PVFR Equipment Fund as these are Articles.
 
·      Office Expense –
-     Copier – The purchase of a color copier was brought up.  Joyce said there is only one year left on the current copier and perhaps consider a color copier at that time.  Mona suggested speaking with Magee.  Contracts that include copy paper was mentioned.
-      Tech Support – Decision to combine the lines for Tech Support and Software.  Trish will check to see if the correct figure is $5,400 or $5,700.  Since this support also includes the Listers computers it was decreased to$3,600and the balance added to the Listers budget.
-       Office Supplies – It was decided to order more envelopes this year as the money was available.  Discussion as to whether ballots could be done in-house versus professionally.  It was felt the whole process could be handled in the office.
-      Postage– increase to $1,500.
·      Board of Listers –
-       Computer – increase to $1,800for share of IT support and future purchase of a tablet for data collection to come from Computer Fund.

3.     Town Meeting – Vote on Australian Ballot.  Ann said that at the last meeting, the Board reviewed the options for holding Town Meeting and complying with the COVID mandates. The only option available to the Town was to conduct the meeting by Australian ballot.  Polls would open on Tuesday, March 2, 2021 for the actual vote, like the recent general election.  A virtual public informational meeting to explain the Warning, Articles, and Budget would be held by the Select Board up to ten days before the vote.  The Warning must be posted at least thirty days but less that forty days prior to the vote and must include the date, time, location, and voter information.  Ann said that to make this official she made the following motions:

Agenda
 
Agenda Modifications: Ann would like to add that the PVFR would like approval of an equipment purchase.  Mona seconded.  Approved.  Add as NB#2. As Caleb is here to discuss the fire department’s budget, this will be taken out of order.
 
Minutes Approval: Special Budget Meeting November 24, 2020.  Ann made a motion, seconded by Mona, to accept the Minutes of the November 24, 2020 Special Budget Meeting.  Motion passed.
 
Old Business:
1. General, Highway, Fire Department Budgets

1.  Capital Improvements Plan
2.  PVFR equipment purchase request
 
Next Special Budget Meeting Date; Tuesday December 8, 2020 at 4pm
 
Adjourn
 
Ann called the meeting to order at 5:05pm.  Seconded by Mona.  All in favor. 
 
Old Business:
1. General, Highway, Fire Department Budgets
Caleb was asked to go line by line through the Fire Department’s budget line items and explain the increases and decreases proposed.  
·      Operations – Dispatching Fees:  $5,000 has been proposed.  This is an increase from $0 as the State is planning to impose a fee for each dispatch. There was some discussion about taking out the $5,000.00.  Caleb felt that it was best to leave it in in anticipation of the implementation rather than try to find the money later.  He said that the initial startup fee was thought to be around $5,000.00 for the fees for dispatching.  Ann said that she spoke with VLCT.  The Legislature passed an addendum to Act 166 in September that prohibits the Department of Public Safety from charging fees in any contractual agreement to perform dispatching duties for the state, municipal or other emergency services until it is established in law a dispatch fee schedule.  It will have to go through the legislative process, the DPS will have to hold three public hearings before the legislature, who then must discuss and pass it.  The Board asked Caleb for his thoughts on this and the Board felt that this probably would not take effect much before 2022, especially since municipal budgets would be set by then. Caleb said that the dues will have to be added in for Rutland County Mutual Aid and current dispatching fees.  minus $5,000 plus $1,200
·       Operations – Vehicle Maintenance:  This year the vehicle maintenance has been broken down by vehicle.  They overspent as they went over each vehicle to make sure they were inspected and informed as to what may need repair or replacement in their mechanics.  They decided to set a $1,000.00 limit per vehicle to handle these items.  Ann noted that the line-item budget submitted gave a better comparison of income and expenses than in previous years.  The budget estimate last year was a good projection.  Adjusting the line items will help give a better idea of where money is needed.  $4,000
·      Facilities and Equipment – Equipment:  Ann questioned the Facilities and Equipment - Equipment line item.  She asked Caleb what this category included.  He said that this past year they purchased hard hats, headlamps, and hand tools.  It was used for a few things, not major cost items but just the day to day.  Reducing the $7,200 was discussed.  $7,200
·      The final proposed amount of $21,875 was agreed to.
General Fund:
·       Employee Benefits – Health Reimbursement.  George in HW would be the same.  Blue Cross would be $10,800.  Stay with the same at $9,579
·       Late April 2019 Flood – Trish said that interest this year looks to be $3,308.  The loan will be rewritten in May.
·       VLCT Insurance Package - $22,279
·       Dues and Contributions –
     VLCT – remains at $1,743
     TRORC – remains at $835
     Visiting Nurse Alliance – remains at $1,000
     Community Care/Park House – remains at $500
     Central VT Council on Aging – remains at $600
     VT Center for Independent Living – remains at $75
     VT Rural Fire Protection Task Force – remains at $100
     Red Cross – requests $250
     Community Care Network/Rutland County Mental Health - requests $588
     Tri-Valley Transit (formerly Stagecoach) - requests $230
     Child First Advocacy - requests $400
     VT Council on Rural Development – requests donation
     Preservation Trust – requests donation
·      Refuse – Ann said that Mark Shea has brought this up at their two Board meetings. There are no fees to join but an Article would have to be written reflecting language in their By-Laws regarding membership.  Discussion.  Table further discussion due to the meeting cut-off time.
 
New Business:
1. Capital Improvement Plan – not addressed.
2. PVFR request for equipment purchase approval. The fire department is asking for a $6,800 budget increase.  Caleb was asked to discuss.  Caleb said they would like to purchase six self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (SCUBA) tanks.  They previously hoped to stagger the purchase of these tanks, however with COVID affecting pricing, etc, the better time to purchase was now.  He said that the best cost he has gotten now is $5,397 for the six tanks. Scott has locked in the price until the end of the year. M&S is the supplier, and they are good to work with.  Ann asked if they could stagger the expiration dates on the tank.  Caleb said that the tanks are time stamped and therefor are not able to do that.  The tanks are good for 15 years.  He felt that if they were not purchased soon that there would be a significant price increase.  Currently there is $10,292 in the Capital Expense fund.  If the money is taken from there, the balance could be rolled into the equipment fund.  Mona agreed that the purchase now was a good idea.  Ann motioned to approve the purchase of six SCUBA bottles for a total of $5,397 including shipping costs if applicable.  Mona seconded.  Motion passed.   
 
Next Special Budget Meeting Date:
Tuesday, December 8, 2020 at 4:00pm at the Town Office.
