I. Discussion on remaining carryover amounts


Orchestra purchased a set of timpani over the summer with approval from Larry,
Carly and Karly and the remaining carryover is money that they planned to take
out of their budget for this year so it appears as a negative carryover right now.
They are planning on absolving their negative balance.
o Vo/Knutson Motion to approve Orchestra’s carryover at ($4,730.14)
Motion Passes 8:0:0
LGBT carryover - Laura and Larry spoke with Will from LGBT and he said that he
was okay with only receiving 5% of their positive carryover because the group
doesn’t need the extra money. Their account will be handled in this way.
o (Bratina/Bennett) Motion to approve Marching Band’s carryover at
($216.94) Motion Passes 8:0:0
o Knutson/Rykal Motion to approve carryover document as a whole
Motion Passes 8:0:0
II. Women’s Rugby Contingency Reserve request



They were allocated a one-shot in the spring for field goal posts as their old ones
were ripped out of Coate field. It ended up costing them $500 more than the
physical element estimated and they would like to request for the remainder of
the money to be provided by SUFAC.
Committee decides to tell them to submit a capital fund request which will be
due with the other requests next week.
Can’t find the $2,011 charge for goal posts on their wisdm account last spring,
we will check into this.
III. Women’s Club Hockey Contingency Reserve Request



They need this chest protector for their games. The first game is Saturday so
there is no way they would get this for their first game but should we approve
this capital fund request or not?
Chest protector is $219.99 for goalie. Other team members are required to buy
their own equipment.
We should recommend to the group that they factor equipment into their
budget in further years because they have requested equipment pieces in the
last couple of years as well.
o (Bratina/Cappozzo) Motion to approve request for Women’s Club Hockey
at $219.99 Motion Passes 8:0:0
IV. By-Laws Discussion




For budget requests, do we really need to ask for each group’s mission, vision,
goals and objectives and budget justification? It seems kind of repetitive.
o (Cappozzo/Bennett) Motion to take Unit Mission and Unit Vision out of
Budget Request Forms leaving only Goals and Objectives and Budget
Justification. Motion Passes 8:0:1
Capital Fund Requests implies that it can only be a capital item ($5,000 or more)
but this isn’t part of the requirement.
o (Palmer/Knutson) Motion to re-name Capital Fund Requests as
Equipment and Supplies Fund Requests Motion Passes 8:0:0
Contingency Reserve Requests will be re-named Contingency Requests
Several other minor changes to the By-Laws which will be voted on as a whole at
the end.
o (Palmer/Bennett) Motion to approve all of the changes to the SUFAC ByLaws. Motion Passes 8:0:0
This will be taken to Student Senate on Wednesday.
Meeting adjourned 6:50 pm
