Summary
At its June 5 meeting the Patchogue CDA approved a $13,748.49 annual maintenance invoice for the agency’s software, raised a shared staff member’s pay to $20 per hour, and voted to move the July meeting from July 3 to July 10. The board also discussed reestablishing governance and audit committees and scheduled follow-ups.
The Patchogue Village Community Development Agency on June 5 approved routine administrative items including an annual software maintenance invoice, a part-time staff pay increase, and a change to the July meeting date.
The board approved payment of an annual maintenance invoice for the agency’s case-management software in the amount of $13,748.49. A motion to pay the invoice was made and carried; the transcript does not identify a mover or seconder.
The board also approved raising the hourly rate for Adriana Gonquette, a shared staff member, to $20 per hour. "So can I have a motion to approve the increase to $20 an hour for Adriana? Motion. ... The increase is approved," the chair announced after the vote.
Members discussed an annual public-authority board evaluation, reporting requirements to the state and the need to reestablish two standing committees — governance and audit — that the agency is required to have. Executive director Mary Ann Truso said she will train recently appointed board member David on public-authority compliance and will bring a report of accomplishments and a revised mission-measurement report to the July meeting for review.
The board voted to move its regularly scheduled July meeting from July 3 to July 10 to avoid the Independence Day holiday and directed staff to publish the change in the Advance and post it on the agency website. Board members asked staff to reach out to remaining nonresponsive members to confirm availability.
No votes to change policy or adopt new programs were taken in this portion of the meeting. The board asked staff to prepare the governance and audit committee schedules and to present updated policy and charter items at a future meeting.
