Selectmen reopen asset-forfeiture account and create federal-funds account
Summary
The board authorized reopening an asset-forfeiture bank account and establishing a separate 278.g account for federal funds (including monies related to ICE work) and directed $10 opening deposits from the general fund for each account; both motions passed unanimously.
The Board of Selectmen voted to reestablish a bank account for proceeds of asset forfeiture and to open a separate 278.g account for federal monies, each funded with a $10 deposit from the general fund to activate the accounts. The motions were moved and seconded and the chair called the vote; each motion was declared unanimous by voice vote.
Board discussion covered procedural details and funding sources: members noted that if the company/vendor is on the state purchasing schedule or included in a purchasing co-op the town could bypass competitive quotes, but otherwise three quotes may be required for purchases over $10,000. The board recorded the motions as "Motion made by Joe, seconded by Bob," and approved both measures during the meeting.
