Minutes of the Trustees of Public Funds Meeting
Town Office Basement
July 11, 2016 - 7 PM
Present: Henry Hotchkiss, Peter Borden, Kelly Ziegler
The election of the Trustees of Public Funds Chairperson is Henry Hotchkiss.
The election of the Trustees of Public Funds Secretary is Henry Hotchkiss.
A discussion took place about the diversification of assets for the Cemetery and Jean Colver Sofield Scholarship Funds. All committee members agreed that this needed further review.
The committee reviewed a draft copy of the Town of Pittsfield, Cemetery Perpetual Care Donations Policy. We all agreed that the Select Board should formalize this policy.
As a result of the Draft Cemetery Perpetual Care Donations Policy, Henry said he would like the idea of only writing one check annually instead of the current quarterly payment.
Peter mentioned that for the cemetery budgeting process, a year end payment would give the town time before the March Town Meeting to determine the amount of money the Trustees of Public Funds could contribute to the Cemetery’s Budget.
The next meeting TBD.
Meeting adjourned at 7:35 PM.
