Adjust spending authorisation limits
When we first created the spending authorisation limits (https://wiki.gnome.org/Foundation/BudgetAndSpending), these were scaled versions of a number of public authority limits. Since 2017, we have increased our turnover, so revisiting these limits would be advisable.
We have gone from an annual expenditure of ~=$418,600 to ~=$940,000. In order to keep the numbers simple, I would suggest the following expenditure limits be adopted:
Expenditure amount | Authorized by |
---|---|
< $1,000 | Budget holder |
< $5,000 | Executive Director |
< $20,000 | Executive Director AND ( President OR Treasurer ) |
≥ $20,000 | Board |
