Greetings, IDTrust-ologists, Attached are 2 important documents to aid your budget planning. Cathie needs your best estimate of a Spending Plan for 2013 by 1 December so it can be included in the budget approved by the Board shortly thereafter The September Financial Report includes a list of things you've funded for 2012. This shows a planned spend in 2012 of $109,900 This might be useful to help you plan 2013. The 2013 preliminary plan allows for up to $116,851 of expenses incurred in 2013 Two important considerations when thinking about what to fund in 2013 - 1. DO NOT include in your preliminary 2013 plan anything that is a carry-over expense that is currently in your plan for 2012. Those expenses and the 2012 income will both carry over from 2012. The 2013 plan should be new expenses covered by new money. 2. I strongly urge all member sections to be very constrained in funding travel. Any travel funding must be for the benefit and promotion of the entire Member Section. Do not expect to fund travel to working meetings as part of the standard development. This is routinely an expense incurred by members directly and using member dues to fund travel for some to attend working meetings creates an imbalance. Cathie or I can work with you on the details, keep us in your meeting plans. Talk to you soon, Scott... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Cathie Mayo <
