RECOMMENDATIONS

                  

It is recommended that:

           

  1. Unfunded improvement authorizations that are over five years old, where projects have been

            completed, be funded through either a budget appropriation or through the issuance

            of temporary or permanent debt.

           

  1. All cash receipts/revenue collections be properly recorded within the accounting software

            to facilitate a more accurate reflection of departmental revenue and subsequent postings

            to the general ledger.

             

  1. Purchase orders be encumbered when contracts are awarded and prior to the ordering of

            goods and services.

           

  1. With respect to contracts awarded in excess of the bid threshold subject to the Local Public Contracts Law, it is recommended that:

           

  • Emergency contract be ratified by the governing body and included in the official minutes.

           

  • Requirements for the awarding of contract through the use of national cooperative purchasing agreements be adhered to in accordance with NJSA 52:34-6.2.

           

  1. All contracts and change orders approved by the governing body be encumbered when awarded.

           

  1. A report of accumulated sick and vacation time by employee be maintained on a current basis and be made available for audit on a timely basis.

Letter from Mayor Colletti to residents - 3/27/20

March 27, 2020

Dear Elmwood Park Residents,

Borough Officials are working behind the scenes, doing whatever is necessary, to support our professionals and department heads who are on the front lines battling the COVID-19 crisis.

A top priority of the Governing Body was to explore options as to how the Borough can assist families that may feel the financial strains of dealing with the collateral issues that this pandemic has caused.

I was able to connect with the owner of Wendy's, located at 231 Route 46 West in Elmwood Park. The owner made a very generous donation to the Borough by providing us with $1,000.00 in food coupons that he will honor at his restaurant for those families that are struggling to make ends meet.

We reached out to our Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Anthony Iachetti, and will be disseminating these coupons to families within the Borough's school district through his assistance. Those families that the school district feels can use the assistance most will be contacted by school officials.

Additionally, the Governing Body, Resident's Assistance Program, Elmwood Park PBA Local 185 and the Elmwood Park Police Department are currently working on a second outreach program that will be announced on Monday, March 30th as we are still working on its final components.

The Borough of Elmwood Park would like to thank Wendy's for their generous donation to the residents of Elmwood Park.

Please stay safe and be well.

Sincerely,
Robert Colletti,  Mayor
Borough of Elmwood Park
