From the Advisory Committee meeting minutes of May 4, 2016, Robert Markel, Templeton Town Administrator reported that the department of revenue has put Templeton under the gun, looking for the schedule A that was originally due back in October 2015 and was granted an extension by MJ Handy, director of accounts from the DOR. If the schedule A is not completed and filed, Templeton's free cash is in jeopardy. Looks like the superior department better hop to.


Bob,
Thank you for keeping me updated on the progress in Templeton.
Unfortunately, I have a meeting at the Statehouse Wednesday morning.
I have asked Deb Wagner if she could participate in the conference call in my absence.

Because the Town has made significant progress in the reconstruction of the financial records,
I will allow an extension for the completion of Templeton’s
Schedule A.
If the Bureau can be of further assistance, please feel free to contact me.
MJ
Mary Jane Handy
Director of Accounts
Division of Local Services/MA DOR
PO Box 9569
Boston, MA 02114-9569
Phone: (617) 626-2391

So from the above email and the minutes of Advisory, we can see that the required schedule A for FY2015 apparently has not yet been completed.

  1. Oh yes, Just what we need !! The "Deb. Wagner" that helped get us in the mess we are in. She was the one who oversaw getting the "financial records in order with the help of Scott Sawyer. With friends like her we do not need enemies.

    1. To date it has cost the Tax Payers of Templeton an excess of over 100,000. to audit the books, so far, and we are not done yet.

    2. I need to clarify something, It has cost us over 100,000. to get the books in order so they are fit to be audited. The audit has not started yet.
