IV. 1982-83 AUDIT REPORTS
Enclosed with the agenda is the Audit Detail and
Management Letter for the fiscal year ending April 30, 1983.
This audit was prepared by Karrison & Byrne, which is the
first year this company has conducted an audit of our
records. Representatives from Karrison & Byrne will be
invited to attend Tuesday's meeting, together with Director
of Management Service, John Hedstrom. The audit is being
received on a timely basis and should allow the Board
sufficient time to review the numbers and management comments.
V. INTERGOVERNMENTAL RISK MANAGEMENT AGENCY (IRMA)
The Village Board, with the recommendation of Finance
Commission and staff, have been moving towards its own
self-insurance program. A formal Resolution will be
presented at the next regular meeting of the Village Board,
August 16th, indicating the Village's desire to withdraw
from IRMA at the close of this calendar year. Additionally,
the Village Board will also consider an agreement with
Gallagher -Bassett to administer the Village's self-insurance
program.
Staff has estimated that the approximate savings with this
program range from $50,000 to $90,000 per year; nevertheless
this savings potential must be seen as a potential and not
an automatic reduction in costs. Insurance programs cannot
be viewed merely on a year to year basis because of
fluctuations in risks, settlements, and frequency of claims.
Vi. PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY ORDINANCES
Several weeks ago the Village Board asked staff to review
local ordinances adapted ed by other communities in the area
of parental responsibility as it applies to consumption of
alcoholic beverages by minors. Several ordinances, as well
as the recently adopted state law, have been provided in
this packet, as well as -an introductory memorandum from
Mr. Hedges. Chief Pavlock will be available to review this
matter with the Board and to answer any questions.
VII. TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT - WHEELLOCKS
The administration was requested to look into the application
of wheel locks in the traffic enforcement program, While
several communities have purchased and utilized such devices,
our Police Department points out that we have a compliance
rate with traffic tickets in the vicinity of 60% to 65%.
Noncompliance occurs primarily for tickets issued for the
non -purchase of local vehicle licenses.
While the purchase of such devices may well attract publicity
for the community, acting as a deterrent, it is felt that its
field utilization would be limited.
Attached is a report from the Chief of Police who will be
available at the meeting to answer any questions.
