Therefore the council has authorized a temporary +spending authorization for Ambassador regions in today's meeting. + +Regions are authorized to allocate/spend up to 10% of their prior year +budget. This should carry us through to the final budget allocation +which is coming. This IS NOT A BUDGET CUT. This is just a way to allow +regions to keep doing their work while also protecting us from the +unknown. See details below please. + +Explanation/Discussion: + +Because we do not have final budget numbers, we need to be conservative +with spending. Therefore Ambassador regions are authorized to allocate +and potentially spend up to 10% of their prior year budget. This is NOT +A FINAL BUDGET nor do we expect to have severe budget cuts, but we need +to be fiscally responsible. If a region needs to spend more than this +amount, they should vote on the ticket assuming they will receive 90% of +their prior year budget and make a request to the Council in a ticket. + +To put this in context, 10% of the prior year budget should cover the +period from March 1 to about April 10 (assuming level spending). For +some regions this may go further depending on the actual timing of +events. The 90% level proposed above assuming some cutting and allows +for regions to make a decision based on a reasonably conservative +estimate of their total budget. While changes are possible, we are not +expecting the public budget to be reduced but have been given no +official guidance on this. Additionally, this estimates reasonably +conservative reductions to account for some budgetary realignment the +Council may choose to do. +
