Committee accepts February general-fund accounts payable documentation
Summary
The Finance and Personnel Committee accepted general-fund accounts payable checks and reviewed invoices, including TIF property tax payments, insurance, equipment purchases for LED lights, a tourism grant payment for the Monona Memorial Day parade, and a music licensing subscription charge.
The City of Monona Finance and Personnel Committee accepted the general-fund accounts payable checks dated in February and reviewed documentation of invoices paid. Committee members moved and seconded the acceptance; the clerk recorded the vote as aye and the motion passed.
Treasurer/finance staff (Mark) walked the committee through several line items on the warrants. Staff noted two parcel payments totaling $27,000 for properties the city acquired in Tax Increment Financing (TIF) district 7 (listed in the packet) and said those properties are now non-taxable as of the purchase. Staff also identified a payment described as "white horse" related to a road work expense under the TIF program and legal bills for Axel Brillson for December.
Staff noted a $165,000 payment to Civic (insurance) covering auto, workers' compensation and other liability policies. Staff also pointed out a $6,156 battery purchase for a vehicle that was ordered from China because a replacement was not available domestically. The packet included a Monona Memorial Day parade tourism grant payment; staff said the grant amount has grown with available funding and that the city reimburses some police and fire costs associated with the event.
Other items flagged included a TeamViewer Germany GmbH premium subscription charge and purchases from Near Electrical Supply Inc. for LED materials tied to the streetlight conversion project. Staff said the Vierbecker stormwater quality management contract has roughly $5,000 remaining.
After discussion, the committee voted to accept the bills. Staff said two items approved by the committee will appear on the council consent agenda later that night.
