Morehouse board approves invoice payments and authorizes year‑end transfers, petty cash and IRS payment
Summary
The board authorized payment of Highway Fund ($32,187.88) and General Fund ($62,192.66) invoices, approved a transfer to cover 2025 year‑end shortages, created a $100 petty‑cash fund for the clerk, and authorized payment of IRS penalties and interest for late 2023 tax payments.
At the Feb. 10 meeting the Morehouse Town Board approved payments from the Highway Fund totaling $32,187.88 and General Fund payments totaling $62,192.66 (invoices 1726-13126 & 2126-2926). The board also adopted Resolution #26-2-1 authorizing transfers to cover 2025 year‑end shortages.
Supervisor Fernandez told the board he had consulted PITS and arranged a certified check and required paperwork to pay IRS penalties and interest so further interest would not accrue while the town works to resolve the matter; the board approved Resolution #26-2-2 to authorize that payment. The board also approved Resolution #26-2-5 to create and fund a $100 petty cash fund for the Town Clerk to provide change for DEC license sales; the petty cash is to be returned to the General Fund on Dec. 31, 2026.
The board approved adding Buell Fuel and Center State Propane to the list of vendors eligible for payment prior to the monthly audit. The meeting minutes do not include budget line‑item references for the year‑end transfers or further detail on the IRS penalty amounts; those specifics are not specified in the transcript.
