Summary

Board members asked whether proposed raises include step changes, when auditors will deliver final statements, and about coordinating measurement-and-verification for an energy-savings product; the finance committee adjourned by motion.

Board members used the presentation to clarify assumptions and request additional detail. One board member asked if the listed percentage increases include step movement; Lentz replied the percentages are the base increases and that step adjustments will be included when staff salary rolls are finalized. On audit timing, Lentz said she expects final financial statements "within the week" and will align a presentation with the auditors for Feb. or March.

A committee member raised a separate operational item, asking about escrow and measurement-and-verification timing for an energy-savings product with two construction phases; Lentz said she would request coordinated construction-year measurement and verification reports. At the close of the finance committee meeting the chair called a motion to adjourn; the motion was made by "Missus Booth" and seconded by "Mister Myers," and the committee moved into the committee of the whole at 7:00.
