Mr. Paul Goldstein
Moderator
Waterford Representative Town Meeting
15 Rope Ferry Road
Waterford, CT 06385
Mr., Goldstein
According to the Agenda of the Representative Town Meeting (RTM) for the Annual Budget
Hearing and Special Meeting, the RTM will be considering a resolution for a pilot program for
approved Capital Projects within the FY26 budget.
Rather than approving that resolution, in our capacity as individual members of the Board of
Finance (BOF), we propose that the RTM send to a Standing Committee (possibly the
Legislative and Administration Committee) the attached proposed change to the Code of
Ordinances. .
There is sufficient time between now and the FY2027 budget to pass the proposed ordinance and
be ready in the FY2027 budget to have the best of both the designation procedure and the direct
appropriation procedure,
We are sending this letter and proposed ordinance as individual members of the Board of
Finance and not as a request or recommendation of the BOF.
Sincerely,
GW Sheehan Glenn Patterson.

1. There is created a reserve fund for capital and nonrecurring expenditures.
a. The Reserve fund for capital and nonrecurring expenditures will have two types of
funding: Appropriated and Designated.
1) If the expenditure requires accumulating funding over multiple years, the annual
funding will be designated for the project After the total funds needed for the expenditure are
accumulated, the funds will be appropriated by action of the Board of Selectmen, the Board of
Finance, and the Representative Town Meeting,
2) If the expenditure is well-defined and funding is complete in the initial request,
the Board of Selectmen, the Board of Finance and the Representative Town Meeting shall
appropriate the funds at the initial presentation,
3) If the expenditure is not well defined in the initial presentation, it will be
designated and the Department or Board will have to return to the BOS, BOF, and RTM to become
appropriated, This is likely to occur for an expenditure proposed in the First Selectman’s Capital
Plan,
b, The Current Capital Fund is established for expenditures that are expected to be
completed in the Fiscal Year Proposed and funding will be considered appropriated when approved
by the Board of Selectmen, Board of Finance, and Representative Town Meeting.
1) If the expenditure is not complete in the fiscal year proposed, It should be
transferred to the Reserve fund for capital and nonrecurring Fund by action by the Board of
Selectman, Board of Finance, and Representative Town Meeting before the end of the fiscal year.
2) if the expenditure is not complete in the fiscal year proposed and it is not
transferred to the Reserve Fund, the remaining expenditure will be transferred to the Unassigned
Fund Balance of the General Fund at the end of the fiscal year, If all that remains of the
expenditure is final invoicing and payment then the funds may be encumbered to make those final
payments in the next fiscal year,
b. The Board of Finance shall review the progress of projects in both funds quarterly.
c. Funds left after the completion of the expenditure shall be returned to the Unassigned
Fund Balance of the General Fund if from the Current Capital Fund and to the Undesignated fund

a, This ordinance change will be effective with the fiscal year 2027 budget.
b, In June 2026 the Board of Finance will transfer any outstanding projects from the
Capital improvement Fund to the Capital Nonrecurring Expenditure Fund.
c. The Capital Improvement Fund will be renamed the Current Year Capital Fund.

First the sad saga of the chrome books. The BOE followed town
instructions and placed the chrome books in capital improvements
only to be denied and told to put them back in the operating budget.
This occurred after the BOE finance committee started to fine tune
and set the operating budget. It pushed the BOE budget up
unexpectedly, making the budget higher than preferred. The
administration and BOE found some savings and agreed upon a
budget under 5%. One of the lowest in Southeastern Ct.
Now at the eleventh hour, the RTM decided the chrome books should
be put back into the capital expenditures. This will require the BOE to
go to the BOS, then the BOF, and then back to the RTM and request
the funding. This flip-flopping mess has cost the taxpayers countless
wasted hours of preparation and revision, will delay purchases, and it
will make the BOE budget seem lower than it really is.
It and the the insurance cut artificially put the BOE budget at 3.85%
and misleads the taxpayers. Next year when the BOE adds the
chrome books back in the operating budget, because it is a recurring
expense, it will automatically look higher when in reality it is not.
The 3.85% is just an illusion to fool the public. The BOE budget is
really 4.85% and should reflect that.
Mr. Giard presented real data that shows that Waterford public
schools are excelling in every way and out ranking many of our
neighboring communities, while our costs are below those of our
neighbors. WPS are doing an exceptional job with below average
funding.

transparent and realistic about the process, the needs, and the costs
of town business.
| urge you to stop this shell game, return the chrome books to the
operating budget, and help keep WPS on top, by fully funding the
BOE budget. .

Tonight, the RTM will consider a resolution for a pilot prog
g
y
approved capital projects within the FY26 budget to be considered appropriated without any
further action by the Board of Selectmen, Board of Finance, or the Representative Town
Meeting.
Lam recommending to the RTM that rather than approving this resolution, the RTM refer it to
Committee for consideration and, if appropriate, a public hearing, and revision, before approval
by the RTM.
1. Is the backup material provided by all the expenditure requests for the FY26 budget
sufficient for a final appropriation decision by the RTM?
2. Does the appropriation of these expenditure requests impact the nineteen expenditures
that are in a currently designated or partially designated status. in the CNR?
3. Are any of these expenditure requests part of a multiyear funding request that will not
be commenced until all of the funds are accumulated in the out years?
4, Although this resolution only discusses the CNR funding, is there any impact on the
Current Capital Funding?
It is possible the Standing, Committee will find other questions that need answering as it
considers this resolution.
If there is a rush to get this resolution passed before the end of FY2025, it is possible for a
standing committee to have a meeting, decide to have a public hearing, and fit that public
Heating into the calendar before the June RTM meeting. If a more leisurely schedule is allowed,
then there is definitely enough time before the August RTM meeting.
Mr. Patterson and | submitted a letter to the RTM with a proposed ordinance that might answer
some of these questions if it becomes part of the code of ordinances. However, this proposed
ordinancé also needs a Standing Committee consideration, including a public hearing, and Town
Attorney review, before adoption.
Thank you for listening to my reasons for sending the resolution to a RTM Standing Committee
for further consideration and revision.
