The records of payroll deductions on account of Federal taxes, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and the United Fund were examined and reconciled with the treasurer's and the accountant's books.
The books and accounts of the tax collector were examined and checked. The commitments of taxes, motor vehicle and trailer excise, special assessments, and water liens were proved with the assessors' warrants issued for their col- lection. The receipts as posted on the commitment books were compared with the cash book record of collections, the payments to the treasurer were verified, the abate- ments were checked with the assessors' records of abate- ments granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved with the accountant's ledger.
The books and accounts of the collector of water charges were examined and checked in detail. The commitments were verified, the recorded collections were checked with the payments to the treasurer, the abatements were com- pared with the departmental records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and proved.
The records of sewer and water assessments apportioned and suspended were examined. The payments in advance and the amounts due and added to the tax levy were veri- fied, while the apportionments due in future years were listed and reconciled with the accountant's ledger.
The outstanding tax, motor vehicle and trailer excise, assessment, departmental, and water accounts were further verified by mailing notices to a number of persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.
The records of dog, sporting, and town licenses issued, as well as of miscellaneous permits and fees collected by the town clerk, were examined and checked, and the re- corded payments to the town and the State were verified.
The records of cash receipts and of departmental accounts receivable of the sealer of weights and measures and the inspectors of buildings and wires, as well as of the police, fire, health, school, library, and cemetery de- partments, and of all other departments collecting money for the town or committing bills for collection, were examined and checked. The payments to the treasurer were verified, the outstanding accounts were listed and proved,
134
and the cash balances were verified by actual count of the cash on hand in the several departments.
The surety bonds furnished by the several town officials for the faithful performance of their duties were exam- ined and found to be in proper form.
In addition to the balance sheet, there are appended to this report tables showing reconciliations of the town treasurer's and town clerk's cash, summaries of the tax, motor vehicle and trailer excise, assessment, tax title, tax possession, departmental, and water accounts, as well as schedules showing the condition and transactions of the several trust, investment, and retirement funds.
While engaged in making the audit cooperation was received from all town officials, for which, on behalf of my ass- istents and for myself, I wish to express appreciation.
Respectfully submitted,
William Schwartz Assistant Director of Accounts
