Motion by Will, seconded by Lombard to approve the minutes of
the June 16, 2005 meeting, as mailed.
Motion carried.
Chair Wedekind distributed a financial report from 1/1/05 to 7/31/05 which indicated an unencumbered balance of $72,884.19; with $32,000.00 being designated to the heating system, the Chair expressed concern in being able to meet 2005 year-end expenses, given the remaining budgetary funds.
R. Griffith presented the monthly maintenance report and list
of bills. Motion by Haugen, seconded by Will to approve the report
and monthly bills, as presented, in the amount of $3,787.52.
Motion
carried.
Discussion followed on budgetary issues and approval of monthly bills. Of particular concern was the procedure whereby monthly expenses are approved “after the fact”. Several Commission members felt more information and estimated costs on special projects should be brought to the Commission prior to being initiated.
Motion by Will, seconded by Lombard that all expenditures,
other than normal, day-to-day operational costs, come before the UW
Campus Commission for review and pre-approval of plans and cost estimates.
Motion carried.
R. Griffith informed Commission members of an upcoming expense, the annual boiler inspection, noting the boiler has been torn down in preparation of the inspection. Commission members agreed this was a routine, operational matter.
No report given.
R. Griffith reported that most of the summer project have been completed, with some painting, carpet and window installation remaining.
No report given.
Motion by Lombard, seconded by Mielke to adjourn and set
the next, regular meeting date for Thursday, August 18, 2005
at 9:00 A.M.
Motion carried and the meeting adjourned at
9:45 A.M.
Respectfully submitted: Beverly J. Mielke, Sauk County Clerk
