Page 2 <br /> Bill Matiros, Director Mashpee Taxpayers Association, was present <br /> at the meeting and requested that he and Al Polsi possibly meet <br /> with the Finance Committee on Tuesday, March 16, 1993 at 7 :00 PM. <br /> The committee agreed to that meeting date and will meet from 7:00 <br /> PM to 7: 15 PM only, due to the tremendous amount of time still <br /> needed to complete the budgeting process. Dan Goggin suggested <br /> that Deirdre give to Bill a copy of the Finance Committee's goals <br /> for this year for his review and his addition. <br /> POLICE BUDGET <br /> Roger Dunivan is the liaison for this department and recommended <br /> following Ed Baker's police analysis worksheet of last week, but <br /> adding back to Ed's numbers one special police officer (Coomey) . <br /> Mr. Baker felt that the committee, in his opinion, should not <br /> authorize budgeting more than one half time clerk and more than two <br /> special police officers. He felt that using last year as a base <br /> line, the department did fine with what they had. Mr. Baker would <br /> like to see budgeted in the salary and wage account, $1 ,139,056 . <br /> Mr. Dunivan recommended $1,149,056, which the $10,000 is for a half <br /> time special police officer, which Mr. Baker has not included. Mr. <br /> Baker suggested $175,000 for the dispatchers. Mr. Dunivan felt <br /> that $175,000 was also an acceptable figure. Mr. Baker also noted <br /> for the record that in the police budget there is a disparity of <br /> numbers which are different for male and female special police <br /> officers. He felt that the Board of Selectmen should be made aware <br /> of the disparity. <br /> Deirdre Greelish asked Roger Dunivan to research the department's <br /> maintenance and repair vouchers, or ask Chief Frye where he gets <br /> his vehicles repaired (who the vendors are) . Ed Baker asked if Mr. <br /> Dunivan got the odometer readings? His answer no. Mr. Dunivan did <br /> not question the overtime. Dan Goggin asked why they need portable <br /> radios? Ed Baker also stated that whatever the committee agree to <br /> tonight, he would like the option . to go back at a later time to <br /> review the questions regarding repairs, gasoline, special police <br /> officers, mechanic, communication system and cruisers, etc. Ms. <br /> Greelish asked Mr. Dunivan to get the committee some information on <br /> the portable radios. Therefore, Mr. Dunivan recommended budgeting <br /> the police department $1, 263 ,537. The salary line item would be <br /> $969,000. The dispatcher line item would be $175,000 . The expense <br /> line item would be $81,537 and the capital line item would be <br /> $38,000. Members agreed to this recommendation, with the option of <br /> revisiting this particular department's budget at a later time to <br /> hash out any problems, previously mentioned. <br /> TOWN PLANNER/PLANNING BOARD <br /> Ed Baker is the liaison to this department. He recommended <br /> budgeting the Planning Board $10,000. Members agreed that this was <br /> acceptable. Mr. Baker recommended $68,213 for salary and wage for <br /> the Town Planner. He recommended $5,195 for expenses, totalling <br />
