I recommend a limit of US$5,000 as approval limit for OC for activity/ies within the budget otherwise any outside budget expense should be brought to the Finance Committee for endorsement and Excomm for approval. We're now behind schedule to publish the BC Outreach Strategy on our Wiki. This would impact on our use of CROP even now for a potential outreach coming up in Brazil on Oct 5.

We had a quick conversation about this on the excomm list last week and Phil, Steve and I were noodling around with some thoughts around how to best get excomm buy in/cover without slowing down OC work. We were all concerned that OC members have “cover” should a non OC member take issue with a particular program or expenditure, esp. considering the optics (as OC leaders are also sometimes going to be travelers). Outreach members know the most about the programs, so don't want Excomm approval to be an impediment to moving forward. Still, I agree with Steve, in the end responsibility to the members will reside with Excomm, and we should put that in some sort of longer term policy. Phil suggested setting a dollar limit ($3k? $4k? Other amount?) above which Excomm should review and sign off with appropriate notice (3 weeks?) Agree we don't want to micromanage but this would give cover/accountability and avoid any optics issues. Other excomm members, appreciate your help refining this. I think aside from this piece the document looks wonderful and I wouldn't change anything. Thanks for what is obviously a lot of work Marilyn!
