A meeting of the Dighton Water District Commissioners was held at the District office at 3:08 P.M.  Chairman of the Board, Paul Pacheco called the meeting to order.  A motion was made and seconded to go into executive session.

 

In attendance at the executive session; Paul Pacheco, Sue Medeiros, and Edward Swartz.

 

Meeting was called back into regular session.   A discussion was held on the lack of a District Accountant, someone that’s on two days a month or whatever, they do the Accounting services for the District, close books end of the month not just at the end of the year, the end of every month, guys out there to do it probably $750.00 to $1,000.00 a month.   A question was asked, “Is it a special employee, or a contracted service?”  A decision was made to start it  in motion to find out, not to say who it’s going to be or what it’s going to be yet but just how to establish a District Accountant , they are to be responsible for closing the books, coming to monthly meeting as the accountant providing us with all the accounting information needed. That person is to be responsible for doing all those lines, all the preparation on the budget, the accountant actually would do more than close the books for $9,500.  A decision was made to interview as many people as necessary and not to take the first person that comes along.   A decision to find out how to set up accounting services was made.

 

A decision was made to have Carol Stevens cc all the Board with Correspondence coming from David Gay.

 

A discussion was held on selling the old office and putting an addition and a garage at the Treatment Facility so everyone and everything would be in one location.  A decision was made to gather more information.

 

Discussion was held on the sign.

 

Invoices for Lopes, gasoline, and insurance were signed.  Bonus checks were placed on hold.

 

Edward Swartz said, “I make a motion to adjourn.”  Sue Medeiros said, “Second.”   Meeting adjourned at 4:40 P.M.
