Re: Motion re transfer of funds to AIS Foundation

[MORRISJE1@aol.com]

Susan,
 
Thanks for explaining our process to Don.  The  evolution of AIS to an open 
society with Board meetings open to all, and  AISdiscuss open to RVPs, and 
representatives of sections and cooperating  societies has broadened input 
to the Board and is a good thing in a  democracy.  At the completion of a 
Board vote on AISvote, I would prefer  the vote totals be posted (including "no 
votes" or abstentions) at that  time while it is current.  Summary reports 
at a later date are okay  but may or may not be read by many and may have 
lost their impact to the  AISdiscuss distribution.  I much prefer our current 
open iris society to  that of the past.  One man's opinion.
 
Jim Morris

Don, As  a new RVP you're welcome to discuss this issue, but you are not a
voting  member of the AIS Board. This motion did pass on Dec. 4. Our
Treasurer,  Jill Bonino can explain more fully, but the transfer has to do
with the  change in the procedure for handling donated funds to AIS that 
will
now go  to the AIS Foundation to be administered. See the next issue of
IRISES for  the correct way to send donations now.

I hope this helps a  little.

I'm new. Before I vote, I would  like to know why the change is necessary.

Jill Bonino moved and John Jones seconded the below motion. As such,  it 
is officially open for discussion. 

"That the AIS transfer  $10,005.49 to the AIS Foundation to close out the 
AIS
Restricted Funds for  the AIS Library and for Research& Scientific Grants."
