BUDGETARY/FISCAL IMPACT:
Total expenses for the fourth Quarter of FY 2023-24 amounted to 27,177.70
BACKGROUND/RATIONALE:
Effective on March 27, 2024, changes to Board Policy 155 increased each Directors travel allotment from $9,000 per fiscal year to $ 10,800 for business-related travel and meeting expenses, with the Board President receiving an additional $1,000 during each half of the fiscal year. In addition, clerical errors made when arranging travel will no longer be counted against a Directors travel allotment. These changes are reflected in the attachments to this report.
Board Policy No. 155 requires that the Board of Directors receive an itemized quarterly summary of all Board-related travel, meeting and miscellaneous expenses reimbursed under the policy. A summary of expenses for each Director is provided in Attachment 1. In addition, the year-to-date expense total for each Director is provided in Attachment 2.
ADVANTAGES/DISADVANTAGES:
This report is provided to the Board in the interest of transparency with regard to travel and miscellaneous expenses incurred by the Board of Directors.
