FY99 BUDGET
After the adjustments in today's Planning Team meeting,
we probably are about $500,000 over budget for FY99. The
Group decided to let Barry address the Planning Team tomorrow
morning, suggesting strategies for cutting or postponing
spending, making clear that the Coordinating Group will clean
up loose ends if the Team can't bring the budget into balance.
The Team will break into two groups with IOC and TOC members
who are present assisting their forum co-chairs in making
adjustments.
WRAP ORGANIZATIONAL ASSESSMENT
Bill Auberle reported that the group created after the WRAP
meeting last month to assess possible changes has had two
phone conferences. They are looking at the organizational
structure and the operating structure of WRAP.
LONG TERM FUNDING AND BUDGETING
It is important to submit the FY00 grant application soon.
The Coordinating Group needs to focus on this for the next
few months.
INTERNATIONAL PROJECTS COMMITTEE
Bill Auberle reported that the IPC will meet in mid-December.
Members are involved in a wide variety of issues, and asked
if he should steer them into focusing on haze. The group
agreed that work on other issues addresses pollutants which
are part of the haze problem and there is no need to refocus.
OTHER ITEMS
Bill Grantham, John Leary and Rich Halvey will take a look
at housekeeping issues, with an intent to determine whether
by-laws need to be amended.
No action was taken on the WRAP Communication Manual, as
no one had time to read it yet. It will be on the agenda
for the November 10 phone call.
