Item No. 6A <br />Type of Business: CA <br />WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; <br />CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Charles Hansen, Finance Director <br />Item Title/Subject: Approve Just and Correct Claims <br />Date of Report: November 8, 2001 <br /> <br />Attached are two versions of the Just and Correct Claims List. First is the <br />version that you have been receiving, know as the summary claims list. Second <br />is the detail claims list. <br /> <br />The summary claims list is eight pages long, about average for this report. It <br />provides a single line of detail for each check listing the check number, vendor <br />name, description, and total dollar amount. The advantage of this claims list is <br />that it is relatively concise, yet provides an overview of disbursements. <br /> <br />Shortcomings of the summary claim list are that many checks have multiple lines <br />of detail and the description from the last line of detail is picked up for the claim <br />list. The last description may not be representative of most of the items on the <br />check. <br /> <br />The detail claims list is thirty-two pages long, again, about average for this report. <br />It lists every line of detail input for each check with a description for that line. <br />This way it avoids the confusion sometimes caused by the way the summary <br />claims list handles checks with multiple lines of detail. However, it loses any <br />semblance of being concise. It may be more detail than the City Council wishes <br />to see. <br /> <br />Both versions of the claims list will be provided to the City Council this meeting <br />and next meeting, and then the City Council can chose the version it wants to <br />continue receiving. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Charles Hansen
