JAN 2 81985 <br />TO: city Counc)1 ii4Y OF MINO <br />FROM: Tom Kuehn, Finance Director <br />DATE: January 24, 1985 <br />SUBJECT: Amend Resolution No. 1109 Regarding Facsimile Signatures <br />on City Checks <br />The City does have the authority to use facsimile signatures, as <br />provided in the Orono City Code, Sec 2.09, and in Resolution No. <br />1109 (copies enclosed). we have been using the facsimile <br />signatures of the Mayor and City Administrator on all checks <br />under $5,000.00, with the Treasurer (myself) or Deputy Treasurer <br />(Joan Lattiui, supplying a hand signature. On all checks <br />$5,990.00 or larger we have been using hand signatures for the <br />Mayor or Deputy Mayor, City Administrator, Treasurer, or Deputy <br />Teasurer. <br />The replacement of the facsimile signature place is necessary <br />whenever there is a change of Mayor or Administrator. The <br />replacement takes several weeks and the use of the plate does not <br />add to the security of the check writing process as we always <br />require a hand signature. It is recommended that we eliminate <br />the use of the facsimile plate and use one hand signature for all <br />checks under $5,000.09 and three hand signatures for all checks <br />of $5,000.00 or larger. i have enclosed a resolution to <br />incorporate the changes mentioned above. <br />
