Board approves treasurer’s report, tax settlement with Hilton Garden Inn and routine finance items
Summary
The board accepted the May treasurer's report (noting about $27,000 lower sales tax receipts and roughly $1.7 million in interest earnings), authorized depositories, approved a tax certiorari settlement with the Hilton Garden Inn, accepted an internal audit and corrective action plan, and approved several contracts and bid/auction items as part of the consent agenda.
The Pittsford Central School District Board accepted several finance and consent‑agenda items during its regular session, including the May treasurer’s report, a tax certiorari settlement, an internal audit acceptance and multiple contract approvals.
Treasurer Vespi presented the May report, saying sales tax receipts came in “a little bit lower for the first quarter… by about $27,000” and that interest earnings were approximately $1,700,000. The board moved to accept the treasurer's report and approved it by voice vote.
The board approved a tax certiorari settlement with the Hilton Garden Inn that will include a refund for the current year and an adjustment to next year's billing, as described in the superintendent's correspondence. The internal audit report and a corrective action plan with specified dates were accepted; the audit presenter noted active collaboration with bargaining groups and efforts to automate time‑sheet and payroll processes where appropriate.
On contracts and investments, members approved a Monroe 1 BOCES transportation contract, motions to auction a driver's education vehicle and declare surplus equipment, and a resolution to add the New York Muni Trust as an additional local government investment avenue to diversify district investments. Bid awards listed in the consent agenda were also accepted. All of these items were approved by voice vote as part of the consent agenda.
