A5. See chart on Page 58. COMMENTARY: These transfers are being recommended to allow for additional staffing in the Town Accountant’s Office. The Town Accountant gave his notice in March of 2008 when he accepted another position. After a search for a full time replacement that was ultimately unsuccessful, the Town agreed to employ the incumbent on a part time basis, a savings of approximately $80,000 over the past two fiscal years. The financial departments gave up another full time position in 2009, a savings of an additional $34,000. The loss of those two positions, coupled with the additional amount of financial reporting that is required as part of the high school construction project, has dramatically increased the department’s workload.
