4. Treasurer’s Report for September 2020 presented by JC Wheeler

           September 2020 Profit & Loss Statement presented.  Balance Sheet as of September             30, 2020.  

Wilhite’s house is on the market.  They did not make any sewer lateral claims, but                  they fixed it before listing with ReMax.

            Need to make decision on meeting room.

            What are we going to do with the Prop P Money?  What are other municipalities                    doing with the money?

             If Wilbur Park purchases a message board, who is the owner?  Who would pay for                 maintenance and insurance?  How do we justify this purchase?  Would Wilbur                       Park have access to the message board whenever we wanted?  Who has first right                   to use?  Do the police really want or need one?

             There are still lots of questions that need to be answered before this purchase is                     made.  The quote from Stalker Radar is $21,744.00 but that does not include a                       license plate reader.

             Bob said he will call Dan to get questions answered.

Commerce Brokerage accounts are cash heavy and they don’t accrue very much                      interest.

            What are other options to invest with greater return?  We have lots of cash in                           accounts which are over the insured amount.  Need to adjust.

Motion to accept Treasurer’s report was made by Neal and all accepted.
