ASSEMBrYMM'B COMMEM ASSEMBLYMEN'S COMMENTS Assemblyman Austerman reported he had been approached by personnel of the First National Bank with reference to the borough's procedure for keeping their checking account in the community. He said it appeared the borough checking account was not put out to bid. Also, he said it was pointed out that the KIB was one of the few boroughs in the state that does not bid out their checking account. He requested staff to provide information at the next work session about how the borough's checking account was handled. Furthermore, he felt the borough's purchasing policies were not the best and would like to pursue the concept of getting together with KIB School District which has a purchasing department to start running the borough's purchases through on a twice a year basis. He thought the borough would get more competitive and better prices. He mentioned when he was in the printing business that he never received a bid request for computer printing. He felt requesting bids would be a better way of conducting purchasing for the borough. Presiding Officer White announced the next assembly work session would be held on June 9th at 7:30 in the borough conference room. He requested that the subject of procedure for making committee appointments be placed on the agenda. The next regular assembly meeting will be held on June 16, 1988, he said.
