RPC director reports December P&L shows $162,000 income; accounts receivable fell to $371,000
Summary
The executive director reviewed December financials for the Rutland County RPC, noting $162,000 in income influenced by an ACCD invoice, accounts receivable fell from $468,000 at year-end to $371,000 on Feb. 11, and staff are uncertain a federal energy efficiency grant will arrive due to a federal administrative order.
The executive director reported the Rutland County Regional Planning Commission's December profit and loss statement reflects $162,000 in income, in part driven by a third-quarter ACCD invoice received in December.
Staff said line items showed higher town dues (line 402), higher state income tied to an NDA agreement invoicing for Brandon and Fairhaven (line 403a), and no activity yet for the Department of Energy line (line 407). The executive director said the RPC is awaiting an Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant but cautioned, "I'm not I'm not banking on getting that money anymore, which is unfortunate," after staff said a kickoff meeting was canceled because of an administrative order from the federal government.
The executive director said accounts receivable totaled $468,000 as of Dec. 31 and totaled $371,000 as of Feb. 11, 2025. Staff noted audit and insurance expenses were paid in full for the fiscal year and that credit card rewards posted to the RPC's account were reported as miscellaneous income per the auditor's guidance.
Staff also reported that work on a "work 6" grant is ramping up and that staffer Kareem has been pushing billing; staff expect higher billings to that grant moving forward. The RPC has advertised a finance assistant position and has received several applications.
Separately, staff described a proposed regional approach to implementation grants: staff are working with towns awarded implementation funding on a potential group RFP so a single contractor could serve multiple towns; RPC staff can offer grant administration services for implementation grants for up to 10% of award, with staff aiming to charge 5%–8% for administrative services if towns opt in.
