Description of Services

The Clerk-Treasurer is the Chief Fiscal Officer and provides overall management supervision to the Clerk-Treasurer’s Office and the Management Information Services Office. The Clerk-Treasurer is responsible for all the money received (revenues) or paid (expenditures) by the Village. Any money received that does not require immediate use is invested. In addition to many federal and state laws requiring safe and sound practice in the handling of money, the Village has adopted an investment policy, which is followed by the Clerk-Treasurer in the performance of his duties.

Many of us keep track of major events on a twelve month (annual) basis, usually from January 1 through December 31, also known as the "calendar year". Businesses, including governments, keep track of their financial (money) activity on an annual basis, known as the "fiscal year". The fiscal year may or may not be a calendar year. In the Village, our fiscal year is the twelve month period, running from June 1 through May 31.

Prior to the beginning of the fiscal year, the Clerk-Treasurer assists the Village Manager in developing a spending plan, known as the annual budget for submission to the Board of Trustees.  After the fiscal year is over, the Clerk-Treasurer prepares the annual financial statements, reports which show what money was received and paid, and how close actual activity compared to the budget planned.

The Clerk-Treasurer issues a number of reports throughout the year to report the financial status of the Village government. Those reports include detailed work on the Village Budget, and other periodic reports of financial data.

The Management Information Systems Office (MIS)  maintains the Village’s local area network as well as the its automated systems, computer hardware, computer software and the Village’s web site. The MIS Office acts as the Village’s purchasing agent for technology related equipment and services.

The duties as Clerk include maintaining custody of the Village seal, books, records and all official reports of the Village. The Clerk is designated the Records Management Officer pursuant to law and is the Records Access Officer for purposes of the Freedom of Information Law.

As Clerk to the Board of Trustees, the Clerk is responsible for preparing and preserving the minutes of their meetings. In addition, the Clerk compiles a record of all Village resolutions and local laws.

The Clerk-Treasurer’s Office also issues annual parking permits, dog licenses, vital statistics (birth and death certificates) and maintains an indexed record of all written notices of defect which are reported to the Village.

Peter Mantius: Crestwood LPG won robo-approval - FOIL proves that there are no records showing that the Board of Regents has appointed a “state geologist” or “acting state geologist” since 2010

Gov. Andrew Cuomo should waste no time resolving the latest controversy over a Texas company’s application for a permit to store liquid petroleum gas, or LPG, in unlined salt caverns next to Seneca Lake. At issue is whether a specifically designated “state geologist” has a legal responsibility to conduct a rigorous analysis of such potentially dangerous activity or whether a simple undocumented sign-off by — well, anybody — will do. In its six-year bid to win that underground storage permit, Crestwood Equity Partners has made a practice of hiding documents, fudging facts and co-opting state regulators and local officials. Last week the company was called to task by the Seneca Lake Pure Waters Association for dodging a fundamental rule of the state Department of Environmental Conservation. The first sentence of the DEC’s “underground gas storage permitting process” states that such permits may only be granted with “approval in writing from the State Geologist.” SLPWA notes th

FOCUS ON: NY Appellate Court Judge Thomas Dickerson

Thomas A. Dickerson is a former Yonkers city councilman and city court judge is now a judge on the New York Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department.  He was designated to this Division in 2006 and his term on the Supreme Court ends on December 31, 2017. Controversy Appellate Court Judge Thomas A. Dickerson, 72, a former Green Beret paratrooper in Vietnam who made an off-color joke from the bench in October 2014. When a female attorney arguing in a motorcycle accident noted she had never ridden one, Dickerson said she would “look good in leather,” the legal-news site Above the Law reported. He later apologized. “It blew a whole career,” the court insider said. When judges turn 70, they can apply for certification to stay on the bench. They can apply for recertification at 72 and 74 but cannot serve past 76. http://abovethelaw.com/2014/10/law-school-dean-turns-judges-sexist-snafu-into-a-teachable-moment/ Education Judge Dickerson received his B.A. degree

WELCOME TO THE POLICE STATE: ‘Retaliation for use of the Open Records Act will inhibit every citizen from using it.’

A North Georgia newspaper publisher was indicted on a felony charge and jailed overnight last week – for filing an open-records request. Fannin Focus publisher Mark Thomason, along with his attorney Russell Stookey, were arrested on Friday and charged with attempted identity fraud and identity fraud. Thomason was also accused of making a false statement in his records request. Thomason’s relentless pursuit of public records relating to the local Superior Court has incensed the court’s chief judge, Brenda Weaver, who also chairs the state Judicial Qualifications Commission. Weaver took the matter to the district attorney, who obtained the indictments. Thomason was charged June 24 with making a false statement in an open-records request in which he asked for copies of checks “cashed illegally.” Thomason and Stookey were also charged with identity fraud and attempted identity fraud because they did not get Weaver’s approval before sending subpoenas to banks where Weaver and another j
