Dresden village board 9/1/10
DRESDEN—The Dresden village board approved the audit done on Dresden by Paul Wagner. The auditor suggested a number of changes. Wagner said the village board should review the insurance policy section that insures Dresden against fraud, create a written policy for use of the village credit card, review the procurement policy as the state has made changes, and that the mayor or deputy mayor needs to certify the payroll each week. The auditor also suggested Clerk Terry Dilts keep a written record of the village’s indebtedness in one place. A notebook has already been put together. Read More ...

Trustee questions process, spending
DRESDEN—Dresden village board’s newest trustee, Tom McGuigan, had concerns with several bills given to the board to approve, at the Wednesday, Aug. 4 meeting. McGuigan said the bills were $1,127 for road signs, $968 for disposal (of batteries, light bulbs, and solvents), gas mileage from two trips equaling over $700, and $505 for a tree removal. He said one problem he has is not pre-approving such expenditures. Trustee David Wernsing said that, at least with the tree, it was a matter of public safety, and that Mayor Loujane Johns knew about it. Johns added she had a concern about the road signs bill. She said Superintendent of Public Works John Stryker sent a list of the signs needed and asked for quotes only. However, Johns explained a box containing the signs arrived, with a bill for the village. The invoice itself, back from the supplier has “quotes only” still written on it. Read More ...
