POLICY
1. We recommend that the Legislative Representatives and alternate to PSAECO be
paid transportation expenses at the IRS rate, meals (not to exceed $30.00 per
day) and any other expenses. Legislative representatives shall provide vouchers
for all expenses incurred. They shall present a written report annually at the
annual convention of PSACA. The report shall consist of proposed legislation
affecting the office of county auditor.
2. We recommend that each County Auditor and the Pennsylvania State Association
of County Auditors contact their Representatives and Senators and urge that any
attempt to abolish County Auditors by the Legislature or the State Association
of
County Commissioners, be defeated. Retaining elected County Auditors makes
the system more effective, less political and less costly to the counties.
3. We recommend that regional organizations be established for the purpose of
regional meetings and workshops. It shall be the responsibility of the Executive
Board to establish these geographical regions.
4. We recommend that the budget committee include a line item for a $50.00
memorial in the event of a member’s demise and $25.00 for an associate member
who has served in the past 10 years. Memorial will be handled by local Auditors
and a voucher be submitted to the State Association Treasurer.
5. We recommend a session by the DCED be presented at our convention as needed.
6. We recommend that the Secretary of the Auditors Association send a letter to
each Board of Auditors and include the following information:
A. A list of new Auditors and a PSACA manual to each Board of Auditors and
all new Auditors not attending the convention.
B. The structure /history of our association
C. A list of names of the officers, board members and solicitor.
D. Information, which might be beneficial to new Auditors.
E. Should you have a problem in your county, contact a person from the
membership list of County Auditors.
7. We recommend that wherever the convention is being hosted, the auditors from
that county should be the host. Then if for some unknown reason there is not a
host county to have a convention, it will be up to the presiding President and
Executive Board to site the convention. Auditors from that county should be
included in the planning. The Executive Board will develop and plan the
workshops for all conventions.
8. We recommend that the summer Executive Board meeting should be
centrally located so it is accessible to everyone as far as travel is concerned.
9. We recommend that each point of the policy committee should be voted on
separately and recorded in the minutes as such.
10. We recommend that all committees shall give a copy of their report to the
Secretary of the State Association.
11. We recommend that the State Association set the registration fee and that it
is paid by all members and guests attending the convention, regardless of the
amount of time spent at convention. Members, associate members, and guests who
attend the banquet only shall be required to pay for the dinner only.
Registration and meal package money will be refunded up to a week (7 days)
before convention begins. Executive Board and Host County will consider any
exceptions to the seven-day refund rule.
12. We recommend that a committee of two auditors be appointed at the convention
to take the responsibility of having the PSACA Manual printed on a current basis
for the next annual convention
