Okay. So 83 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:35,000 the first item on there is our rainy day fund which we have $84,100.75 84 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:46,720 towards the end of the year. I bought a CV 85 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:52,560 from mutual savings of $50,000. 86 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:56,639 You're going to see that in our distributions. 87 00:07:54,319 --> 00:08:04,479 So, uh, we've been because it was a sevenmon special interest. So, but that 88 00:08:01,039 --> 00:08:09,919 that you just needed to know there's no it doesn't change the amount of money we 89 00:08:06,479 --> 00:08:16,120 have. The second item is telling you that uh uh we we have $111,000 90 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:25,199 $269 and 59. 91 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:33,519 I also would like to report that uh we purchased a $25,000 92 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:44,279 CD from Mutual Savings. Those CDs come uh mature this month and uh it's my 93 00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:44,279 intent to purchase 94 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:55,040 new CDs. We have to put the interest in the account. township account, but I'm 95 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:57,279 going to purchase a new CD to rep. >> So, these are coming due, 96 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:03,680 » right? >> And and whatever interest was made off 97 00:09:00,560 --> 00:09:05,760 of the 50,000 and the 25,000 will be put back into the bank, 98 00:09:05,279 --> 00:09:09,680 » right? >> Okay. And then you're going to buy 99 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:16,880 another 50,000 and another 25,000 >> and another 25 cuz I had 25,000 in 100 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:20,920 assistance. So, I jumped ahead of myself. 101 00:09:17,279 --> 00:09:20,920 » Okay. $63,115.13 102 00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:32,959 in our assistance and of that amount we have $25,000 103 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:38,160 in the bank. So the next item shows our payroll 104 00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:42,480 deductions. And so, uh, apparently, 105 00:09:42,301 --> 00:09:52,000 » [snorts] >> uh, we jumped ahead somehow and we paid, 106 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:55,000 uh, we're short in that account. Uh, $35,2742. 107 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:05,440 We, that's not a problem because our banking uh, [clears throat] all uh, 108 00:10:03,839 --> 00:10:08,000 equals the banking all balanced out. 109 00:10:07,846 --> 00:10:13,360 » [snorts] >> Uh so with that in mind, the state board 110 00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:20,320 of accounts has told me with this last audit that that's not anything that is 111 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:25,120 that big a deal. Okay. As long as our checking account balances. 112 00:10:22,912 --> 00:10:29,399 [snorts] Any questions on our grand total of $256,12756? 113 00:10:32,959 --> 00:10:41,519 That's what you got to operate with. That's what's in the bank as the end of 114 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:49,120 December the 31st. >> I will. So the assistant fund that is 115 00:10:45,839 --> 00:10:53,760 what is in the bank. What are we when I when you say 68,000 116 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:59,040 » 63,000? >> Excuse me. 63,000. 117 00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:03,360 Uh what is what are you telling me here? 118 00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:13,040 You're telling me that's in the bank? >> Okay. So we have uh five funds in uh 119 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:19,360 that we deal with. We deal with rainy day. We deal with township 120 00:11:16,079 --> 00:11:22,760 » and I forgot to report the donation. We had $1,169.51 121 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:35,760 donated to the trustees office this last year. We've not spent any of that money. 122 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:42,160 uh and we won't spend any of it unless we need to purchase food or if we need 123 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:48,480 to purchase school supplies. We haven't done that. Uh and 124 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:53,160 but if we need to, we would do that. So now to recap, we have 256,12756. 125 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:06,240 Any questions on our funds? Again my question I'm sorry did 63,000 that means 126 00:12:03,839 --> 00:12:09,519 that that is in the bank being held for assistance. 127 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:14,480 » That's exactly what it means. Okay. >> We will not spend that amount. We can 128 00:12:11,680 --> 00:12:21,600 only spend the amount that we have appropriated. 129 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:27,040 So we can never spend uh of those uh 130 00:12:23,519 --> 00:12:29,040 four funds we can never spend more than what 131 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:33,279 » appropriate >> right 132 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:39,600 » the donations is is something that is not appropriated and we can spend it 133 00:12:36,399 --> 00:12:44,680 without an appropriation. Okay. So the next page 134 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:58,240 » receipts. >> Yes, it's receipts. Uh I'm not going to 135 00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:03,079 go through each of those.

He says, "If I was you, I would uh uh slice seed uh the 2.3 acres and uh 226 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:18,159 and that's the best thing to do." So we did that and before the fall was up, we 227 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:23,919 saw it improved with our yard. So I look forward this 228 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:27,679 spring to look good again.

Some of these that are 1150 or something like 268 00:25:53,200 --> 00:26:02,640 that, we only had one family come in.

So, and I told the other two board 340 00:32:12,159 --> 00:32:23,120 members, but I'm going to tell you this is about how thick our 341 00:32:19,679 --> 00:32:28,159 call log is for people that call and we keep records of everybody that calls and 342 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:35,360 we keep a record of everybody we made a referral to. We're the only ones I know 343 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:39,039 in the state that tie it down that time. All right.

Okay. 351 00:33:02,799 --> 00:33:11,440 » All right. So, the last page are questions that we have to answer.

A 381 00:35:21,599 --> 00:35:29,400 complete abstract that contains the statements required under Indiana code 382 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,400 36-6-4-13 383 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:37,440 A5 and A6 is available for inspection in the county auditor's office. I further 384 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:41,200 affirm that a complete and detailed annual report together with all 385 00:35:39,119 --> 00:35:45,839 accompanying vouchers showing the names of persons having been paid by the 386 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:50,480 township have been filed as required by law in the office of the county auditor 387 00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:55,280 and that copies of such annual report are in custody of the township board and 388 00:35:52,960 --> 00:36:01,920 the state board of accounts. Said report is subject to inspection by any taxpayer 389 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:10,400 of the township. Mark message 317 No, I'm not going to give your number out. 390 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:13,280 Okay. So, uh we just need that motion to accept the annual report and then a 391 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:19,210 signature. >> Do I have a motion 392 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:22,640 » to accept the annual report? [clears throat] 393 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:27,200 » Okay. Do I have a second? >> Yes. 394 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:29,520 » All in favor? I 395 00:36:27,839 --> 00:36:33,839 » I >> Okay. Next thing on your agenda is my 396 00:36:32,240 --> 00:36:39,119 report. And we didn't put some things on the 397 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:45,920 agenda because we were told by the state board of accounts that we are not to 398 00:36:42,720 --> 00:36:54,720 discuss the audit. The audit has been approved until they put out the results 399 00:36:50,480 --> 00:37:00,560 themselves. We can't talk about it. U it was a fairly good audit. uh we didn't 400 00:36:57,599 --> 00:37:08,640 have anything uh that they really objected to except something that they 401 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:16,640 would object to this year uh is how we pay our taxes and uh and we 402 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:24,320 need to make sure when we close out the year that that balance is zero. 403 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:31,680 So if we pay taxes uh before that is zero, they're saying 404 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:38,480 correctly. I mean the bank balances. So they don't 405 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:45,599 they're not going to write this up. So that's the audit report. Uh I can't 406 00:37:42,240 --> 00:37:52,000 tell you uh anything else about it. Steve attended the the uh exit interview 407 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:56,560 and I attended the exit interview and when they published their report, if you 408 00:37:54,480 --> 00:38:01,599 have any questions, please call me or Steve. 409 00:37:58,240 --> 00:38:05,839 » But to just to follow up, the only qualification were what you just 410 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:10,240 mentioned. I'm not >> leaving how did we don't leave any 411 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:12,400 dollars. >> We 412 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:16,240 » that that was what they stated, >> right? 413 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:22,480 » Yeah. Okay. I mean, but it since the banks all balanced, they're saying that 414 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:26,800 our financials are in order. Okay. >> All right. 415 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:31,200 » So, then the next report I have is basically 416 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:38,800 what's going on in the House and the Senate 417 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:45,920 uh with the merger bill. Bill 270 is the Senate bill uh that's going to 418 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:51,599 require uh that we uh merge. It may not require that White River 419 00:38:48,240 --> 00:38:58,720 Township merges because of our size and because of how we do our business. If we 420 00:38:55,119 --> 00:39:06,240 did do our business the way we are, we would get points. And if and if uh uh we 421 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:11,680 had any openings in our staff uh as far as the the board and the trustee, we 422 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:16,640 would get points. If we don't help people, we will get points. If we don't 423 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:24,000 have a set of standards, we will get points. Anybody getting four points will 424 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:29,200 be basically forced to merge with an identity township regardless of the 425 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:34,160 size. Regardless, doesn't make any difference. So that that's my report 426 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:41,440 there. I do have one item uh under other 427 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:49,040 business for the good of the township. I have a resolution that I want to present 428 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:54,560 because we're changing uh on the form 17 which we can change periodically during 429 00:39:51,359 --> 00:40:01,200 the year the amount of money that we're going to pay the board. Uh we as we know 430 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:07,040 that uh we overbudgeted uh but we were still going to give the 431 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:16,400 board the same percentage of raise that uh that I'm living under this year. Uh 432 00:40:11,839 --> 00:40:22,720 so the board will be now paid $2,900 uh a person. 433 00:40:19,119 --> 00:40:29,839 And so uh you need to know that. But you also have to sign the resolution for 434 00:40:25,359 --> 00:40:34,880 that. None of the other payments uh that were on the original form 17 have 435 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:38,240 changed. Okay. >> Okay. 436 00:40:35,599 --> 00:40:43,040 » Uh so I'll hand this to you, but I'll explain it and then ask for a 437 00:40:39,599 --> 00:40:48,000 resolution. Charles, how $500? >> Yeah. 438 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:52,320 So, uh, the trustee will continue to receive the amount that was approved of 439 00:40:50,079 --> 00:40:59,680 $45,000. The, uh, clerks will get $25 each. And 440 00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:03,119 so will our part-time employees, anybody that is employed by 441 00:41:01,599 --> 00:41:11,440 » 25 per hour. >> 25 per hour. Then the board will get 442 00:41:07,119 --> 00:41:17,359 $2,900 per year paid quarterly. [snorts] We have an investigator. 443 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:24,000 uh if we fill that position, they will get paid $50 per case. And a part-time 444 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:30,560 uh a case [clears throat] worker on on the 445 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:36,160 uh side of the assistance, they will get $25 an hour. Also, 446 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:40,818 » investigator $75. >> Now, investigator gets paid $50 per 447 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:48,240 investigation. [snorts] All right. So, do do you want 448 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:50,079 to call for a vote? >> You'll need 449 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:54,160 » to discuss or >> Yeah, I'll need one. 450 00:41:51,359 --> 00:41:57,839 » Wait a minute. This is the agenda. >> Well, that's all I want you to sign. 451 00:41:56,240 --> 00:42:00,560 » Well, [clears throat] okay. [laughter] All right. 452 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:02,720 » So, it's up to you if you want to read it. 453 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:06,800 » So, the resolution is to establish salaries of the township officers 454 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:11,359 employers. Do I have a motion to approve? 455 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:12,319 » David, would you like to make that? Yeah. 456 00:42:12,259 --> 00:42:13,599 » [snorts] >> David 457 00:42:13,119 --> 00:42:20,160 » yes >> has first motion. Do I have a second? 458 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:23,800 » I'll second.
