Amend spending policy to smooth ED transition period
The finance committee would like to propose amending https://wiki.gnome.org/action/edit/Foundation/BudgetAndSpending to more flexibly allow @zana and the staff team to approve items with the President and Treasurer during the transition period whilst there is no ED. We considered adjusting the levels and granting @zana her own approval level but in discussions with her and Neil, a $5,000 transaction is rare enough that seeking approval isn't a big problem.
Previously:
Authorization limits
Expenditure amount | Authorized by |
---|---|
< $1000 | Budget holder |
< $5,000 | Executive Director |
< $20,000 | Executive Director AND ( President OR Treasurer ) |
≥ $20,000 | Board |
Proposed:
Authorization limits
Expenditure amount | Authorized by |
---|---|
< $1000 | Budget holder |
< $5,000 | Executive Director OR President OR Treasurer |
< $20,000 | Any two of Executive Director OR President OR Treasurer |
≥ $20,000 | Board |
I propose we vote electronically. If you're happy with the above please check yourself off below:
