March 24, 1973 Missouri State Land Survey Authority Meeting Minutes

STATE LAND SURVEY AUTHORITY
Minutes of Executive Session

     An Executive Session of the State Land Survey Authority was held March 24, 1973, at 7:30 a.m., at the Manor Inn, Rolla. All Authority members were present.

     The meeting was called by Mr. Daniel Kennedy in order to discuss per diem and out-of-state travel expenditures by Authority members. The folowing conclusions were made:

     1.  On March 26 (date of Senate Appropriation Committee hearing) and at the next meeting, discuss with Mr. Myers the possibility of transferring funds from other parts of the budget to allow Authority members to receive per diem and out-of-state travel expenses for the remainder of the fiscal year.

     2.  To review and reevaluate per diem and out-of-state travel expenditures so far this fiscal year and make adjustments in the allotment for the FY 1973-74 budget if necessary.

     3.  To submit to the State Land Surveyor a reasonable estimate of per diem and out-of-state travel expenditures required for Authority members to be included as part of the FY 1974-75 budget.

     Mr. James Anderson reported that Mr. Harold Haas, Director of Planning for the City of Springfield, asked him what the SLSA could contribute to Springfield for the coming fiscal year. Mr. Anderson told him that the SLSA budget has already been made and that it does not include funding for Springfield, but that the SLSA could contribute up to six man-months in Springfield. Authority members agreed that this was a reasonable statement.

     Dr. Larry Fellows asked about the policy pertaining to use of State cars by SLSA employees, as it had been called to his attention that certain employees have been seen driving them in Rolla after hours and on weekends. It was agreed to review this policy at the next Authority meeting, and that Mr. Myers should be contacted about the matter before then.

     The Authority members decided to change the date of the next meeting from April 26 to April 16 in order that all members can be present.

                    Respectively submitted,

                    Larry D. Fellows
