Finance Report
Chris presented the Finance report reviewing the revenues and expenditures to date. He noted that all of the
expenses were as anticipated and budgeted.
He asked the board how they would prefer he account for capital purchases such as the MULE; either within the most applicable budget line-item
or under a separate expense category “Capital Expenses”.
Eric said cramming them into the existing budget would inflate those line items way above the approved amounts.
All agreed that
special request, board approved capital expenditures should be accounted for in a unique category. Chris said he would do just that on the next finance report.

Discussion and Decision Items
Holiday Garland Purchase
Chris informed the board that due to the recent installation of more streetlamps more holiday garland needed to be purchased.
He had received price quotes for incandescent and LED versions from DiJulio Supplies which is the BID vendor for the holiday spiders. The garland would be custom manufactured to the
same measurements of our existing garland. Chris said he would like to purchase 10 to 12 new strands.
Due to the lack of a quorum, Mike suggested a motion and second be made to be put
to the entire board for a vote by e-mail.
ACTION: Ileana Indreland moved to purchase additional streetlamp holiday garland not to exceed $2600.
Mike Basile seconded the motion.
Six
approving votes were received by e-mail on October 17 and 18, 2012.
MULE ATV Update
Chris presented the table below detailing the finances of purchasing the new Kawasaki MULE. In all,
Summit Motors extended $788 in savings from the standard pricing for the purchase, delivery, assembly, and accessories.
