Board approves transfer of surplus funds; details to be fleshed out
Summary
The Town Board approved a resolution to transfer surplus funds, with board members noting an email from Jim Scribe outlining potential uses; the board delegated specific allocation decisions to staff and asked for recommendations for how to spend the funds.
S1 presented a resolution to transfer surplus funds and the board approved the measure after brief discussion. Board members said Jim Scribe had emailed suggested uses and indicated the town should decide how to allocate the surplus.
The board asked staff and the supervisor to produce recommendations for how to spend the funds and to circulate those options before the next meeting. No specific dollar amounts or final allocations were recorded at the Jan. 7 meeting.
S6 said the surplus gift "has gone a long way" and has been leveraged, but also noted the donor prefers no public recognition. The resolution passed by voice vote and staff will prepare a recommendation on distributions.
