MA 02649 <br /> FINANCE COMMITTEE MINUTES <br /> February 25, 1991 <br /> Mashpee Town Hall <br /> Present: Carole Dunivan, John Ferriday, Tony Gallo, Deirdre Greelish, <br /> Carl Heller, Vern olka and Jim Vaccaro <br /> The Finance Committee meeting was called to order at 6:30 p.m. The <br /> Chairman recommended that approval of the minutes of February 20th be <br /> deferred until the members had a chance to .review them. <br /> Jim. distributed the latest spread sheet noting that he had found <br /> two errors. The Treasurer Tax Collector had inadvertently listed the debt <br /> service figure ($5 , 2 5 0) twice and the $90,000 in Pension Reserve had been <br /> previously added into the Retirement Assessment. He further noted that <br /> revenues had decreased by $11,000 as the Selectmen will not raise the beach <br /> fees. <br /> Jim checked on the eligibility for medical insurance for the elected <br /> board officials. He informed the members that State law states that if an <br /> j elected official is compensated he is entitled to get the same rate as the <br /> town employee does on insurance. The Finance Committee had previously <br /> recommended that all elected board officials be non-salaried. Vern informed <br /> the members that she felt these elected board officials should be compensated <br /> and she motioned the Committee to reconsider their previous decision. This <br /> motion was seconded by Tony. The motion to reconsider elected board officials <br /> salaries was carried with 5 in favor and 2 opposing votes by Carole and Deirdre. <br /> Tony agreed that the boards should be compensated and stated that he <br /> would like to address each board separately. He further noted that he felt <br /> that the Selectmen should receive a higher salary than the Board of Health <br /> and the.- Assessors. Currently the boards are compensated as follows: <br /> Selectmen (5) $2,500 each <br /> Board of Health (3) $1,500 each <br /> Assessors (3) $1,500 each <br /> Tony motioned that the salary for the Selectmen be set at $1,500 each. <br /> There was no second to this motion. <br /> Tony motioned that the salary for the Selectmen be set at $1,000 each. <br /> John Ferriday seconded the motion. Vern felt this was too high and Carl expressed <br /> his belief that all three boards should be compensated equally. The motion for <br /> the $1,000 salary for Selectmen did not carry with only 3 votes in favor by <br /> Tony, John and Jim and 4 votes opposed. <br />
