Fin Com 5. 2006 Budget Preparation - Jeff: sent out email with attachments to list today with budget format and the fundraising plan. We reviewed these together on the call. The spreadsheet only represents tier 1. the other Tiers will need their own spreadsheets. Jake thinks we should focus on tier 1 and 2 only due to the time constraints and come back to tier 3 and 4 when we actually get to these income levels during 2006. The numbers used came from a variety of sources and are only a starting point for discussion. Jeff uses a variety of last years actual expense, last years budgets, input from people and committee requests. We need to match up the numbers to Marc's email also sent to list today with the subject line: Committee Budget Requests. Need an Appendix with all personnel costs lists in one place. Maybe other appendixes. Discussion of stipends for steering committee members including the treasurer and secretary. Marc to get Jeff committee numbers. SC members must get their portfolio numbers to Jeff. Jeff to incorporate this into the budget. Marc: we still have annual meeting, salaries and stipend issues. Also we don't have all the committee requests yet. Jeff to be the point man for budget. Discussion to start having nightly conference calls for the budget, same number and same time. 6.
