Hartshorne mayor: accountant to attend PWA meetings quarterly; accounting bid remains open
Summary
Mayor Ashley Faulkner said the city will reduce costs by having the accountant attend Public Works Authority meetings quarterly, and she directed staff to place the accounting services procurement on the February agenda; the bid remains open.
Mayor Ashley Faulkner, presiding at the Hartshorne Public Works Authority meeting on Jan. 21, 2025, said the city will limit the accountant's attendance at PWA meetings to once per quarter as a cost-saving measure. She told the board that the bid for accounting services remains open and asked staff to place the matter on the February agenda for further consideration.
The change is an administrative step intended to reduce recurring meeting costs; the transcript records Faulkner's instruction to follow up next month but does not specify projected savings or a timeline for awarding a new contract. City Clerk Kerry Porter and City Treasurer Renee Montgomery are listed on the meeting roll call and will be involved in the procurement and agenda follow-up.
