He mentioned that a group of Sutton citizens wished to welcome a Ukrainian refugee family and have the support of the Town. Councillor Alan Pavilanis, of Lithuanian origin, proposed <a href=\"\/?p=48768\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">to raise the flag of Ukraine<\/a>, which was unanimously approved.<\/li><li>The mayor wished to highlight the remarkable work of the firefighters during the past weekend who conducted several rescue operations in the mountains.

The NPO is financed by our taxes (MRC and cities) and we all have an interest in it being profitable, so that there are as many subscribers as possible so that we don\u2019t have to make up a financial deficit.<\/li><li>The Mayor has issued <a href=\"\/?p=48562\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a call for applications<\/a> for the following committees currently being formed: CCUDD, Environmental Advisory Committee, Quality of Life Committee.

ANSWER: No.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>If we have posted the position and if not, why not. RESPONSE: We had posted the position, but it was not successful.

RESPONSE: As previously answered, this was only done twice at the beginning of the pandemic and the sessions are now filmed, the questions can be heard on YouTube.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>why the written questions are not read in full. RESPONSE: They are now read in full.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>why the 2022 budget ITP ignored important points from the previous budget ITP. RESPONSE: Priorities change year after year. An ITP is not a requirement, it presents ideas. The new board placed many projects in the first year and will re-evaluate for future years.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>whether previous budget presentations would also be posted on the website.

The information on the SQ rate increase was indeed included in the budget presentation.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>why the four very important files (John-Sleeth Centre &amp; Museum, Filtex, HAS, water) are not mentioned in the ITP. RESPONSE: HAS is an NPO and does not have to be in a municipal budget. For the other files, they are under study and it is useless to put numbers until a decision has been made.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>A citizen asked several financial questions: <em>[note that throughout the month of March, the treasury is undergoing audits for the financial statements and it is difficult to answer immediately]<\/em>.<\/li><li>what is the estimated annual budget surplus for 2021 as of 2022\/03\/02. RESPONSE: Answer to come.<\/li><li>a reserve of $598,245 had been created in December 2020 when the 2021 budget was adopted to balance the 2021 budget (financial report as of 2020\/12\/31). However, 2021 ended not with a deficit, but with an estimated budget surplus of $1.7M at the December 2021 Town Meeting. RESPONSE: The $1.7 million surplus was indeed announced in the 2022 budget. The 2020 surplus budgeted in 2021 of $598,245 is included in this surplus. The 2021 surplus used to balance the 2022 budget was included in the budget: it is $1,561,424. Council does not need to make a specific resolution for the transfer of unrestricted funds, the resolution adopting the budget is sufficient.<\/li><li>what are the balances of the following reserves, restricted operating surplus, as of 2021\/12\/31 and 2022\/01\/31: Covid grant, 2022 budget, recycling, water, sewer, ditches. RESPONSE: Due to ongoing audits, the matter was held over for the next meeting.<\/li><li>What is the balance of the Working Capital Reserve as of 2022\/01\/31. RESPONSE: The amount will be reviewed with the adoption of a new working capital amount and the finalization of the financial reports (filing of the draft regulation).<\/li><li>recommendation to pay particular attention to reserves which are taxpayers\u2019 money. RESPONSE: Council is aware of this. The General Manager wanted to clarify the term \u201creserve\u201d.
