Cash Control Policies

The Town Treasurer/Collector's office has issued a Cash Control Policies and Procedures manual, and it is required that all town employees read the policy and sign-off. The policy will be circulated (look on the circ desk for it), and the sign-off sheet is in your box. Please check off your name on the policy itself after you have read it, and pass the policy to someone who has NOT read it. Put your signed sign-off sheet in my mailbox.

Most of this pertains mostly to department heads and departments that handle a lot more cash than we do, but please note the section on accepting checks:

• CHECKS SHOULD BE MADE TO THE TOWN OF DENNIS - LIBRARY, and NOT Dennis Public Library. I know this is going to take getting used to. It's not the end of the world if someone makes a check out to DPL, but we need to get in the habit of doing it this way.
• It is helpful if a note is made in the memo field (fine, book replacement, donation, etc.)
• Starter checks ARE NOT ACCEPTED without my sign-off
• Checks must have address and phone number on them
• Checks must be presented with driver's license or other ID
• Person accepting the check should initial the front of the check

If you have any questions, please see me. Thanks!
