CITY COUNCIL OF THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF NEW CASTLE Present: Council President William Blest Others Present: City Treasurer Janet Carlin, City Administrator Cathryn Thomas, Finance/HR Director Marian Delaney, City Accountant Greg Sarnecki Council President Blest brought the meeting to order at 6:07 p.m. 1. Council reviewed the City’s revenues for the upcoming budget. It was felt that the City should take a much stronger approach regarding business licenses, especially at the Farmer’s Market. 2. Insurance for the City was also discussed. It was felt that the City should stay with Zurich as its insurance carrier and use Mr. Robert Briggs as the City’s agent/broker, due to a commitment by the carrier of either no increase in premiums for some coverages, and a slight decrease in premiums of 3% for other coverages. 3. Council President Blest discussed relieving the City Clerk of her obligation to attend all budget workshop meetings. Instead, the City Administrator would ensure that the meetings are recorded and provide a synopsis of the meetings to the City Clerk for preparation of the formal minutes. 4. Council also discussed possible yearly evaluations for the City Administrator. Councilperson Churchill made a Motion that the meeting be adjourned. It was seconded by Councilperson Reese and passed unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 8:45 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Jill DiAngelo, City Clerk |
