Atherton finance committee flags AI dashboards and credit‑card controls for future review
At the end of the meeting the committee discussed several administrative items for future agendas. Staff proposed researching whether the Town’s current financial software or an overlay can provide AI‑driven dashboards for quicker metric generation. Members asked staff to inventory vendor capabilities and independence, citing concerns about vendor consolidation and bundled products.

Separately, members asked the finance committee to review the Town’s credit‑card policy and internal controls following a recent county audit of a nearby school district. Staff noted a current $1,000 cap on card purchases and said the committee should review whether that limit and related approval processes remain appropriate given vendors’ shifting payment preferences (credit cards, Zelle, etc.).

No formal action was taken; staff will investigate vendor AI capabilities and report back at a future meeting.
