Vice President Isaac Valencia called the meeting to order pending
the arrival of President Loeb.
The December 20, 2000, minutes were approved.
Cmdr. Smith said based on the conversations he had with City
Council and District members, he suggested the consideration of
the repeal of the District sales tax exemption for
telecommunications services be tabled for at least four to five
months and reserve the option to consider the item at a later
meeting. The Board unanimously agreed.
Ms. Boone distributed the overtime security cost review for the
Assessment Center considering CCPD overtime, off-duty sheriff's
officers, and on-duty city marshals. Ms. Boone also distributed
a status report.
Cmdr. Smith asked the Board to consider diverting between $3 ,000
to $5,000 from the Citizen Advisory Council budget to use that
money in a proactive manner for graffiti laminate of street signs
in neighborhoods that have excessive graffiti. The Board
authorized this item.
Mr. Harty gave the Treasurer's report. He introduced Ms. Cook
with Collier, Johnson, & Woods. Mr. Loeb asked for the auditor's
report first. Mr. Loeb observed the opening budget with a
` difference between the original budget and amended budget, which
he has been told, are encumbrances. He asked Mr. Harty to
explain the accounting for encumbrances as it relates to the
1 SCANNED
coordination of the financial statements and the opening budget
`, year. He said he noticed in the balance sheet there is a
liability of $134,842 in reserve for encumbrances at the
beginning of the year. He said there must be more encumbrances
modifying the original budget to the amended budget on the
financial statements because the difference is more than
$134, 842 . He asked whether the amount that was reserved at the
beginning of this fiscal year would correspond to the difference
between the original budget and the amended budget for this
fiscal year. Mr. Harty said he would check on this and report to
the Board.
The Board reviewed the analysis of budget variances for uniform
police officers 2°a and 3ru series and the FY 2001/2002 budget
timetable.
The Board discussed the attendance record for Board members.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 3 : 15
