Background
While budgeting for 2022, we attempted to keep the budget light. It was difficult to predict our finances, having reached a low point in income during COVID's peak that was only tentatively recovering as we observed our membership begin to return. Fortunately, our finances are in a better place than expected and we are no longer expecting the loss we predicted based on previous years numbers. With the flexibility afforded by that, we are hoping to ensure all areas receive the funding that they need to finish this year out with with the appropriate resources provided for areas to flourish rather than limping along.
The main reason for bringing this vote to the membership is the Hot Metals area. Due to higher cost of area maintenance Hot Metals is in need of immediate funds in order to continue functioning through the end of the year. (yes it’s that bad)
After talking to other areas with a low remaining budget we have derived a list of areas that could benefit from additional support.
- Hot Metals
- Graphic Arts and Textiles
- 3D Printing
- Specialty 3D Printing
- Electronics
Accounting
Grant each listed area above an additional $1,200 to their 2022 budget. No budget funds roll over into the following year, so if this money does not get spent, it will not be added to the 2023 budget.
Language
Authorize the Board to bequeath $1,200 to Hot Metals, Graphic Arts and Textiles, 3D Printing, Specialty 3D Printing, and Electronics as an addition to the existing 2022 Budget. These funds are to be spent by respective area hosts and their designated authorizers. This spending authorization goes into effect immediately after this vote passes and expires at 11:59PM on December 31st, 2022.
