Background
The purpose of this vote is (1 to authorize the Board to spend money on normal administrative expenses not already authorized by the bylaws, and (2) to ensure there is an emergency fund set aside for extenuating circumstances.
Expenditures such as rent and utilities (and a few other things) are already approved by the bylaws for the board to spend, so this vote does not cover those. They are included in the background information to inform the amounts we are actually voting on.
