member of CAPPS, he has been delegated to go to the meetings as the City's <br />representative once a month in Grand Prairie. He felt it was beneficial for the <br />City to be a member of CAPPS because the City of Paris, by being a member <br />of CAPPS, has saved $440,000. <br />Mr. Anderson stated that as a Certified Public Accountant, he had to get 40 <br />hours a year of Continuing Education and because he is also the Tax-Assessor <br />Collector, he has to get 60 hours every five years. He also is a Certified <br />Governmental Finance Officer and has to get thirty hours of continuing <br />Education every two years. <br />Finance Director Anderson explained that miscellaneous was made up of the <br />fee to the Governmental Finance Officers Association to evaluate the annual <br />audit and the rest is a safe-keeping fee to a third party bank to safe-keep <br />investments of the City. <br />He explained the electronic data processing was partly for leasing the financial <br />accounting software. The fee also pays for any modifications to the software. <br />He mentioned it also paid for updating the tax tables. <br />Mayor Fendley recommended that the Council not go any further in the Budget, <br />but discuss setting a budget workshop day or half day. He felt at the regular <br />City Council Meeting on Thursday, August 5, if the Council members would <br />bring their calendars, they could schedule that. <br />Finance Director Anderson said he needed a day to schedule the TMRS rep to <br />come before the Council, also. <br />Mayor Fendley said after the Council meeting, Thursday, they could discuss <br />Community Development and the Airport, and possibly Engineering. <br />There being no further business, the meeting adjourned. <br />CURTIS FENDLEY, MAYOR <br />
