“TLB had been preparing our tax returns for a number of years. They had always been very thorough and provided us with advice and tips over this time, which we greatly appreciated. However, I realized the true value of dealing with TLB upon the passing of my husband. Richard Bienvenue was the first person I called to assist me with settling my husband’s affairs. He responded with a home visit immediately and over the following several weeks he and his staff were not only invaluable in dealing with attorneys, life insurance and investment companies and pension boards, but also were very compassionate and caring which was a relief for me and my children, all of whom live quite a distance away.”
TLB Results
As a result of a year-end closing engagement with a new client TLB was able to fully reconcile a Towns budget with Town Meeting minutes, the tax rate and the Towns accounting ledgers for the first time in the Towns staff recent memory. This process resulted in enhanced reporting to the Finance Committee, identified inadvertent under funding of some government funds and new methodologies to allocate costs to enterprise funds and to recover those costs, which resulted in additional revenues to the general fund.
