Selectmen authorize up to $28,031.25 for 250th celebration vendors, with paperwork safeguards
Summary
The board approved release of vendor payments for the town's 250th celebration, amending the total to a not-to-exceed $28,031.25 and requiring full paperwork before checks are issued. Motion passed 5-0.
The Litchfield Board of Selectmen authorized vendor payments for the town’s upcoming 250th celebration, approving disbursements when required paperwork is provided and amending the total to a not-to-exceed $28,031.25.
Joe Stapleton, treasurer for the 250th committee, walked the board through updated vendor quotes and invoices and said he would submit documentation for each payment. "All reimbursement requests come from me only as the treasurer," Stapleton said, adding that each check will be released only after invoices, W-9s and insurance certificates are on file.
Selectmen moved and seconded a motion to authorize checks for vendors that provide all necessary paperwork and later amended the amount to $28,031.25 to reflect corrected quotes; the amendment passed 5-0 and the final motion carried 5-0.
Stapleton said some vendor amounts dropped and others remained, and that no checks would be issued without the treasurer’s paperwork. The board noted the event is close and asked staff to expedite paperwork and vendor coordination.
