Appendix D:
General Recordkeeping Requirements for Town Clerks
Adequate accounting records and effective procedures should be in place to account for and report
town clerk financial activities properly. Some basic and essential recordkeeping and reporting
procedures include the following:
1. Maintain a cashbook, which chronologically identifies all receipts and disbursements.
2. Make all disbursements by check, except as otherwise authorized by law, such as authorized
petty cash disbursements.
3. Maintain official bank accounts in designated depositories.
4. Deposit all moneys received to official bank account no later than the third business day after
$250 has been collected (Town Law Section 30 [1-a]).
5. Perform a monthly reconciliation of cash with amount in the bank and related liabilities.
6. Prepare monthly reports and remit collections to the supervisor and agencies on a timely basis:
• To the Town Supervisor – for fees and other moneys collected belonging to the town no later
than the fifteenth day of each month following receipt (Town Law Section 27[1]).
• To the New York State Department of Health – for marriage license fees on or before the
fifteenth day of each month (Domestic Relations Law Section 15[3]).
• To the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets – Dog Licensing Unit and
County Treasurer – for dog license fees on or before the fifth day of each month (Agriculture
and Markets Law Section 111[])).
• To the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) – for conservation
(hunting/fishing) license fees as applicable via the DEC’s automated system (Environmental
Conservation Law Section 11-0713; 6 NYCRR Section 177.4).
The town clerk of certain towns may also serve as the tax-collecting officer (see Town Law Section 36).
As collecting officer, the town clerk generally would be responsible for collecting both town real property
taxes and county real property taxes that are levied within the town. A portion of the taxes collected (the
amount levied by the town) is remitted to the town supervisor, and any residual amount is paid to the
county treasurer (see Town Law Section 35). Because of some unique or additional legal requirements
pertaining to tax collecting officers, a separate audit checklist has been developed for this portion of the
clerk’s functions.

General Recordkeeping Requirements for Tax Collecting Officers
In order to accomplish their responsibilities and properly account for tax collections, collectors and
receivers of taxes and assessments should, and in some cases must, comply with the following:
1. Maintain tax warrants, tax rolls, tax bills (statement of taxes due), and other documents relating to
tax accounts.
2. Maintain a cashbook, which chronologically identifies all receipts and disbursements.
3. Maintain official bank accounts in designated depositories.
4. Issue acceptable receipt forms to acknowledge all moneys collected (tax bill and tax receipts are
generally one document).
5. Deposit all moneys received in a timely manner.
For Towns Only: Deposit to the appropriate bank account(s) within 24 hours of collection.
6. Make all disbursements by check except for authorized petty cash payments.
7. For Towns Only: Generally, remit tax collections to the supervisor at least once a week until
payment in full of all moneys payable to him/her pursuant to the warrant have been made.
8. For Towns Only: After payment to the supervisor in full of all moneys payable to him/her pursuant
to the warrant, remit additional tax collections, if any, to the county treasurer by the 15th day of the
month following collection.
9. Prepare a list of unpaid taxes at expiration of the warrant, and complete settlement with the county
treasurer, if applicable.
(See, generally, Town Law Section 35, pertaining to the powers and duties of collectors, and Town Law
Section 37, pertaining to the powers and duties of receivers of taxes and assessments.)
An Important Initial Step in the Audit Process for Tax Collectors and
Receivers
Following the tax collection period, the tax collector or receiver is required to account for or settle up real
property taxes that the collector or receiver was responsible for collecting. The accounting is made to the
county treasurer, and is considered an important and integral part of any audit and/or oversight process.
Before the town board audits the records of the tax collector or receiver, a copy of the settlement sheet
should be obtained and reviewed. If necessary, inquiry should be made with the county treasurer to
find out if there were any known problems or concerns with the collector’s or receiver’s records or
accounting at the time of settlement.
Note: An audit of the tax collector or receiver could be done any time after settlement with the county
treasurer. Once the collector or receiver has settled with the county, there should be no further activity
and the bank account balance should be zero (unless the bank, at the time of opening the account,
required a minimum amount to be held in the account).

Boston, NY 14025-9648
Attn: Jason Keding, Supervisor
RE: Zimmerman Rd (CR 437) and Mayer Rd (CR 471)
All-Way Stop Traffic Study Request
Dear Supervisor Keding:
The Erie County Department of Public Works has completed a traffic engineering investigation
related to your request for an all-way stop study at the intersection of Zimmerman Rd (CR 437)
and Mayer Rd (CR 471) in the Town of Boston.
Section 2B.12 of the National Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) gives
criteria for an all-way STOP sign installation. All-way stop control can be useful as a safety
measure at intersections if certain traffic conditions exist. Studies have found that unnecessary
stops, when the intersection is clear of conflicting movements, can lead to general disrespect for
STOP signs.
The traffic engineering investigation was completed to compare this intersection to the all-way
stop warrants outlined in the MUTCD, including a review of the crash history at the intersection,
available sight distance, and a turning movement traffic count that was conducted on October 29,
2025. To determine available sight lines under typical conditions, the line-of-sight review was
completed on May 19, 2026, once the vegetation had begun to bloom in the Spring. The
warrants for an all-way stop have not been met based on these warrants, and an all-way stop is
not recommended at this time.
The County has reviewed the existing signage for opportunities to further increase driver
awareness of the stop control at this intersection. While the existing 36” STOP sign on Mayer
RATH BUILDING • 95 FRANKLIN STREET • ROOM 1400 • BUFFALO, NEY YORK • 14202 • (716) 858-8300 • www.erie.gov/dpw
Page 43
Road is larger than the MUTCD suggested 30” size for this condition, it is recommended that
36” STOP signs with CROSS TRAFFIC DOES NOT STOP sub-plaques and red reflective post
strips be dual posted, meaning one on the right side of the road and one on the left side of road.
In addition, the Stop Ahead warning sign and yellow reflective post strip cover will be relocated
closer to the intersection to meet current design guidelines. The Erie County DPW has found the
use of reflective post strip covers highly effective at drawing driver attention to critical signs.
This work will be completed by Erie County forces.
While an all-way STOP is not recommended at this time, the signage changes are expected to
improve driver awareness of the existing stop control and reduce crash rates at this intersection.
If you have any additional questions regarding this matter, please feel free to contact me at (716)
858-8067.

CROSS TRAFFIC DOES NOT STOP sub-plaques and red reflective post strips. These 36”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 11, 2026
NYSEG and RG&E Prepared for Storm
Response
Strong storms may cause outages throughout Companies’ service areas
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. — June 11, 2026, 3:30 p.m. — New York State Electric & Gas (NYSEG) and Rochester Gas
and Electric (RG&E) are preparing for severe weather expected Thursday and Friday that could cause
widespread outages throughout their service areas.
Current forecasts call for scattered rain and thunderstorms beginning Thursday. The initial system will move
east on Friday as another front moves in that brings an increased risk for strong storms Western New York.
Wind gusts during the peak of the storm could reach 60 miles per hour at peak intensity, potentially causing
trees to fall on wires and poles, causing outages.
The companies’ storm readiness team has been monitoring weather forecasts, finalizing plans, readying crews
and equipment, and mobilizing employees for storm duty. Additional contract tree and line crews are on
standby to support restoration efforts if outages occur.
Company Preparations
Readying Crews
In preparation for the event, the Companies has pre-staged additional line and tree personnel across the
state to assist with restoration efforts if needed. Company and contractor crews will be onsite and
prepared to facilitate an effective and efficient response should outages occur.
Equipment Summary
The line and tree crews will be prepared to respond to any storm-related issues with bucket trucks, auger
trucks, wood chippers, dump trucks, and backhoes.
How to Stay Up to Date
NYSEG and RG&E will provide updates throughout the event to the general public on their website and
social media channels (Facebook and Twitter). Customers should also sign up for email alerts and
download the NYSEG or RG&E mobile app to get the most up-to-date information.
Safety Tips
The Companies also offer customers the following reminders to prepare for the storm and stay safe if
power outages do occur.
Before a storm strikes:
Internal Use
Page 54
• You can use our mobile apps to report and check the status of outages. To download the
application, customers should search “AVANGRID” in the Apple or Android app stores and select
“NYSEG” or “RG&E”. The application is free to download.
• Sign up for Outage Alerts to receive updates automatically by phone, text, or email as the
Companies update the status of the restoration process in their area. Customers can sign up for
outage alerts by visiting here for NYSEG and here for RG&E.
• Keep battery-operated flashlights and radios on hand, along with supplies of drinking water and
non-perishable foods.
• Make sure that smart phones, tablets, and other mobile devices are fully charged.
• Fill your car’s fuel tank.
Stay Away from Downed Wires:
• Stay at least 30 feet from a downed power line.
• If a downed wire comes in contact with your vehicle, stay inside and wait for help. If you must get
out because of fire or other danger, jump clear of the vehicle to avoid any contact with the vehicle
and the ground at the same time. Land with your feet together and hop with feet together or
shuffle away; don’t run or stride.
• NYSEG customers should call 1.800.572.1131 and RG&E customers should call 1.800.743.1701 to
report downed power lines or other hazardous situations.
During a Power Interruption:
• Contact neighbors to see if their power is off. A loss of power may be the result of a blown fuse or
a tripped circuit breaker.
• To report a power interruption, contact NYSEG at 1.800.572.1131 or RG&E at 1.800.743.1701.
• Keep refrigerators and freezers closed as much as possible. Most food will last 24 hours if you
minimize the opening of refrigerator and freezer doors.
Power Restoration Priorities:
The Companies’ first priorities are to respond to reports of downed power lines to keep the public
safe. NYSEG customers are asked to call 1.800.572.1131 and RG&E customers are asked to call at
1.800.743.1701 to report downed wires. Once this vital public safety work is complete, the Companies will:
• Assess the damage to the electricity delivery system.
• Develop a detailed restoration plan.
• Make repairs as quickly as possible.

Summary of SEQRA Changes in 2026-2027 Enacted State Budget,
TED Part R
As part of the 2026-2027 Enacted State Budget, TED Part S, amends the State Environmental
Quality Review Act, or SEQRA, by adding new definitions, creating deadlines for certain agency
determinations, establishing a new category of SEQRA-exempt “qualified actions,” and clarifying
that these exemptions do not override other applicable federal, state, or local laws, including local
zoning and land use authority.
The law applies to pending proceedings on and after its effective date, except for actions where a
determination requiring an environmental impact statement was made before the effective date.
Adds new definitions to ECL § 8-0105
• Adds a definition of “previously disturbed site,” meaning a parcel that:
o Has been substantially altered at least two years before the permit or authorization
application;
o Was altered by an occupied, formerly occupied, or demolished building, or by
another improvement or use;
o In smaller municipalities outside Census-defined urban areas, abuts, adjoins, or is
opposite another parcel that has also been occupied, formerly occupied, improved,
or used for at least two years;
o Is generally not located in a FEMA 100-year floodplain or special flood hazard area,
unless the municipality has adopted elevation requirements for new construction;
o Is not currently used for agricultural purposes and has not been used for agricultural
purposes during the immediately preceding two years or during three of the last five
years; and
o Is not located in a designated coastal erosion hazard area.
• Adds a definition of “small community water system,” meaning a public water system that
serves at least five service connections used by year-round residents, or regularly serves at
least 25 year-round residents, and serves fewer than 3,300 people.
• Adds a definition of “public school facilities,” meaning certain educational facilities in New
York City under the jurisdiction of the New York City Department of Education.
Creates deadline for initial EIS determination (amends ECL § 8-0109[4])
Updated 5/26/26
Page 57
2
The responsible agency must make an initial determination regarding whether an environmental
impact statement is required:
• As early as possible in the formulation of the proposed action; and
• No later than one year after the establishment of a lead agency.
Creates deadline for EIS completion and release (amends ECL § 8-0109[5])
An agency must prepare and make the EIS available within two years after determining that a draft
EIS is required.
• The agency may extend the deadline in writing after consulting with the applicant.
• The decision to extend the deadline remains within the agency’s discretion.
• Any extension may provide only the additional time necessary to complete the draft EIS.
In determining whether additional time is necessary, the agency may consider:
• Changes made by the applicant to the project design after scoping that result in new
significant environmental impacts;
• Additional actions that could not reasonably have been anticipated during scoping;
• The applicant’s failure to timely provide necessary information despite the agency’s good-
faith efforts; or
• Delays caused by circumstances beyond the control of the agency or the applicant.
Creates new SEQRA exemptions for “qualified actions” (amends ECL § 8-
0111)
One of the most significant changes in TED Part S is the creation of five new categories of
“qualified actions” that are exempt from SEQRA review. In determining whether an application is
exempt, the responsible agency must consider the project as a whole and determine that every aspect
of the action either:
• Meets the criteria for one of the new exemptions; or
• Is otherwise exempt from SEQRA.
The five new qualified actions are:
1. Certain housing projects in municipalities outside New York City
Qualifying housing construction must:
• Be connected to existing community or public water and sewer systems at the
commencement of habitation;
• Be located on a previously disturbed site;
• Contain no more than 20 percent commercial, retail, community facility, or other non-
industrial non-residential uses by gross floor area;
• Not exceed 100 dwelling units;
• Not exceed 20 dwelling units if located in a city, town, or village without zoning;
• Not exceed 300 dwelling units if located within a Census-defined urban area; and
• Not consist only of the construction of one single-family residence on a parcel of one acre
or more.
2. Certain public park and trail projects on a previously disturbed site
Qualifying projects include:
Updated 5/26/26
Page 58
3
• Public parks, provided the project does not include performance centers, athletic stadiums,
mass-gathering venues, or other buildings or structures that do not serve public park,
recreation, or open-space purposes; and
• Multi-use bicycle and pedestrian trails.
3. Certain New York City public school facilities
The bill exempts certain New York City public school facility projects that meet the statutory
criteria.
4. Certain water and wastewater infrastructure projects
Qualifying projects include projects that:
• Replace, rehabilitate, or reconstruct municipal water or wastewater infrastructure in-kind and
on the same site, including lead service line replacement;
• Replace, rehabilitate, upgrade, or reconstruct an existing small community water system,
including lead service line replacement; or
• Provide sewer service to a disadvantaged community served by one or more inadequate
sewage treatment systems, where DEC has determined that the project does not require a
permit or approval under specified provisions of the Environmental Conservation Law.
5. Green infrastructure retrofits
The bill exempts certain green infrastructure retrofit projects.
Adds hazardous-materials certification requirements for certain exempt
projects
For certain housing and public school facility projects, Part S requires compliance with hazardous-
materials-related safeguards. Depending on the type of action, the applicant may be required to
certify that:
• It complied and will continue to comply with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations
regarding hazardous waste;
• A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment has been conducted in accordance with federal
all-appropriate-inquiries regulations;
• The applicant has followed or will follow all applicable recommendations of the Phase I
Environmental Site Assessment; and
• The applicant will report contamination at, on, or under the parcel as required by law.
These requirements do not apply to qualified actions initiated by an agency or where the applicant
was previously granted an exemption for the same parcel under the relevant provisions.
Creates deadline for determining whether an action qualifies for exemption
For actions involving applications for permits or authorizations, the responsible agency must
determine whether the action qualifies for one of the new SEQRA exemptions within 120 days of
receiving the application.
• The agency may extend the deadline in writing after consulting with the applicant.
• The extension generally may not exceed 30 days.
• An extension beyond 30 days is permitted only where:
Updated 5/26/26
Page 59
4
o The applicant changes the application after submission in a way that relates to
exemption eligibility;
o The applicant fails to timely provide necessary information despite the agency’s
good-faith efforts; or
o Circumstances beyond the control of the agency or applicant cause delay.
If the agency fails to make a determination within the required time limits, the applicant may bring
an Article 78 proceeding seeking appropriate relief, including a court order directing the agency to
make a determination by a specified deadline.
Adds statute of limitations provision (amends ECL § 8-0111 by adding new
subdivision 7)
• The time to commence a proceeding to review an agency determination under SEQRA, or
under SEQRA’s implementing rules or regulations, begins when the agency determination
approving or disapproving the action becomes final and binding on the petitioner or the
person the petitioner represents.
Adds construction clause preserving other laws and local authority (amends
ECL § 8-0111 by adding new subdivision 8)
• The bill provides that nothing in the law supersedes, limits, modifies, or affects requirements
or procedures under federal, state, or local laws governing historic preservation or historic
properties.
• The bill also provides that it does not affect other applicable laws, rules, regulations,
standards, criteria, or permitting procedures relating to matters such as: Disadvantaged
communities; Stormwater management; Water quality; Air quality; Soil erosion and drainage;
Freshwater wetlands; Tidal wetlands; Critical environmental areas; Threatened or endangered
species; or Other applicable statutory or regulatory standards, criteria, and permitting
procedures.
• The bill further preserves the authority and discretion of cities, towns, and villages under
applicable state or local law relating to zoning and land use, including things like site plan
review; discretionary zoning or land use approvals; traffic studies; contamination testing; and
determinations regarding wastewater and drinking water capacity.

Terms and Conditions Addendum
Records Management
Record Retention and Ownership
We will return all your original records and documents provided to us at the conclusion of the
engagement. Your records are the primary records for your operations and comprise the backup and
support for your work product. Our copies of your records and documents are not a substitute for your
own records and do not mitigate your record retention obligations under any applicable laws or
regulations.
Workpapers and other documents created by us are our property and will remain in our control. Copies
are not to be distributed without our prior written consent. Our workpapers will be maintained by us in
accordance with our firm's record retention policy and any applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
Our firm destroys workpaper files after a period of seven (7) years. Catastrophic events or physical
deterioration may result in damage to or destruction of our firm's records, causing the records to be
unavailable before the expiration of the retention period as stated in our record retention policy.
Working Paper Access Requests by Regulators and Others
State, federal and foreign regulators may request access to or copies of certain workpapers pursuant to
applicable legal or regulatory requirements. Requests may also come in the form of peer review, ethics
investigations or in the sale of the accounting practice. If requested, access to such workpapers will be
provided under the supervision of firm personnel. Regulators may request copies of selected workpapers
to distribute the copies or information contained therein to others, including other governmental agencies.
If we receive a request for copies of selected workpapers, provided that we are not prohibited from doing
so by law or regulation, we agree to inform you of such request as soon as practicable. You may, within
the time permitted for our firm to respond to any request, initiate such legal action as you deem
appropriate at your own expense to limit the disclosure of information. If you take no action within the
time permitted for us to respond, or if your action does not result in a judicial order protecting us from
supplying requested information, we may construe your inaction or failure as consent to comply with the
request.
Summons or Subpoenas
All information you provide to us in connection with this engagement will be maintained by us on a
strictly confidential basis. If we receive a summons or subpoena which our legal counsel determines
requires us to produce documents from this engagement or testify about this engagement and we are not
prohibited from doing so by law or regulation, we agree to inform you of such summons or subpoena as
soon as practical.
You may, within the time permitted for our firm to respond to any request, initiate such legal action as
you deem appropriate at your sole expense to attempt to limit discovery. If you take no action within the
time permitted for us to respond, or if your action does not result in a judicial order protecting us from
supplying requested information, we may construe your inaction or failure as consent to comply with the
request. If we are not a party to the proceeding in which the information is sought, you agree to
reimburse us for our professional time and expenses, as well as the fees and expenses of our legal counsel,
incurred in responding to such requests. This paragraph will survive termination of this Agreement.
Disclaimer of Legal and Investment Advice
Page 67
Terms and Conditions Addendum
Our services under this Agreement do not constitute legal or investment advice. We recommend that you
retain legal counsel and investment advisors to provide such advice.
Limitations on Oral and Email Communications
We may discuss with you our views regarding the treatment of certain items or decisions you may face.
We may also provide you with information in an email. Any advice or information delivered orally or in
an email (rather than through a memorandum delivered as an email attachment) will be based upon
limited research and a limited discussion and analysis of the underlying facts. Additional research or a
more complete review of the facts may affect our analysis and conclusions.
Due to these limitations and the related risks, it may or may not be appropriate to proceed with any
decision solely on the basis of any oral or email communication. You accept all responsibility, except to
the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Drescher & Malecki LLP, for any loss,
cost or expense resulting from your decision (i) not to have us perform the research and analysis
necessary to reach a more definitive conclusion and (ii) to instead rely on an oral or email
communication. The limitation in this paragraph will not apply to an item of written advice that is a
deliverable of a separate engagement. If you wish to engage us to provide formal advice on a matter on
which we have communicated orally or by email, we will confirm this in a separate engagement letter.
Management Responsibilities
While Drescher & Malecki LLP can provide assistance and recommendations, you are responsible for
management decisions and functions, and for designating an individual with suitable skill, knowledge or
experience to oversee any services Drescher & Malecki LLP provides. You are responsible for evaluating
the adequacy and results of the services performed and accepting responsibility for such services. You are
ultimately responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls, including monitoring ongoing
activities.
Conflicts of Interest
If we, in our sole discretion, believe a conflict has arisen affecting our ability to deliver services to you in
accordance with either the ethical standards of our firm or the ethical standards of our profession, we may
be required to suspend or terminate our services without issuing our work product.
Alternative Dispute Resolution
If a dispute arises out of or relates to this engagement letter including the scope of services engagement
contained herein, or the breach thereof, and if the dispute cannot be settled through negotiation, the
parties agree first to try to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”) under the Professional Accounting and Related Services Dispute Resolution Rules
before resorting to arbitration, litigation, or some other dispute resolution procedure. The mediator will
be selected by agreement of the parties. If the parties cannot agree on a mediator, a mediator shall be
designated by the AAA. Any mediator so designated must be acceptable to all parties. The mediation
will be conducted in New York State. The mediation will be treated as a settlement discussion and,
therefore, will be confidential. The mediator may not testify for either party in any later proceeding
related to the dispute. No recording or transcript shall be made of the mediation proceedings. The costs
of any mediation proceedings shall be shared equally by all parties. Any costs for legal representation
shall be borne by the hiring party.

and all claims arising from this engagement, regardless of the nature of the claim, and including the
negligence of any party, excepting claims arising from the gross negligence or intentional acts of the firm.
Designation of Venue and Jurisdiction
In the event of a dispute, you and we agree that the courts of the state of New York, County of Erie, shall
have jurisdiction, and we agree to submit all disputes to the courts of the state of New York, County of
Erie or the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York, which is the proper and most
convenient venue for resolution. We also agree that the law of the state of New York shall govern all
such disputes.
Proprietary Information
You acknowledge that proprietary information, documents, materials, management techniques and other
intellectual property we use are a material source of the services we perform and were developed prior to
our association with you. Any new forms, software, documents or intellectual property we develop
during this engagement for your use shall belong to us, and you shall have the limited right to use them
solely within your business. All reports, templates, manuals, forms, checklists, questionnaires, letters,
agreements and other documents which we make available to you are confidential and proprietary to us.
Neither you, nor any of your agents, will copy, electronically store, reproduce or make available to
anyone other than your personnel, any such documents. This engagement letter will apply to all materials
whether in digital or “hard copy” format.
Statute of Limitations
You agree that any claim arising out of this Agreement shall be commenced within one (1) year of the
delivery of the work product to you, regardless of any longer period of time for commencing such claim
as may be set by law. A claim is understood to be a demand for money or services, the service of a suit,
or the institution of arbitration proceedings against Drescher & Malecki LLP.

We reserve the right to withdraw from the engagement without completing services for any reason,
including, but not limited to, your failure to comply with the terms of this engagement letter or as we
determine professional standards require.

Severability
If any portion of this agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, said finding shall not operate to
invalidate the remainder of the terms set forth in this engagement letter.

encompasses the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all previous understandings and
agreements between the parties, whether oral or written. Any modification to the terms of this

Memo
To: Town of Boston
From: Drescher & Malecki LLP
Date: 6/2/2026
Re: Office of the State Comptroller Checklists for Review of Departments
Town Justice
Bail Account – While reviewing year end reconciliations for the Justice Department, it was noted
that the bail bank accounts and respective bail listings include funds held for periods greater than
6 years. Justice Bender’s bail account balance is higher than the Bail Activity Statement by $557
and Justice Calabrese’s bail account is higher than the Bail Activity Statement by $3 at
12/31/2025. Per review of the Office of the New York State Comptroller, exonerated bail over 6
years should be surrendered to the Town and unidentified money in a justice’s bank account
should be reported and paid into the Justice Court Fund, where it will be retained by the State
until the court can properly identify the funds. Should the court later determine the person who
posted the bail, they should contact the Justice Court Fund and request a refund.
Bank Reconciliations – While performing testing of the bank reconciliations for the Town
Justice, it was noted that bank reconciliations are not signed and dated upon completion. Further,
there is no secondary review. Per review of the Office of the New York State Comptroller, each
Justice should review their related bank reconciliation and sign and date upon completion.
Bank Deposits – While performing testing of the monthly reports for the Town Justice it was
noted that, of the ten receipts collected for Justice Calabrese in April that were tested, one was
deposited outside of the 72-hour window. The receipt was collected on a Friday and deposited in
the bank on the following Wednesday. Sundays are not counted in the 72-hour deposit window
and consequently the deposit was made one day late. Receipts should be deposited in the bank
within 72 hours of collection, excluding Sundays and holidays.
