• <br />PRRIP — ED OFFICE DRAFT <br />_..__..__...._ ... _ .......... <br />____..._.._.._. __.._..___._..._ <br />01/30/2008 <br />Lawson said approval of budget is largely just place - holders, since GC and other committees will <br />have to be involved in proper approval of line -item expenditures and activities. Chavez - Ramirez <br />asked again if costs for items like surveyors and appraisers could be moved to the land portion of <br />the budget to make things more clear. Kenny said that is a possibility, but he had pulled together <br />something that fit easily into one category for budget purposes. Purcell said he liked Kenny's <br />approach because these activities would be contracted directly through the ED Office rather than <br />through the Procurement Policy process and would give Kenny a little more flexibility to enter <br />into appropriate contracts more quickly in response to key needs. <br />Lawson said during the FC meeting there was a discussion about salary changes. Kenny said <br />one category was modified from the original contract. That category is the Communications an <br />Outreach salary represented a modest increase over prior approved rates; all other salaries in FY <br />2008 are at or below what had received prior approval. Kraus said, from the Financial <br />Committee discussions, Kenny and Purcell were going to discuss it and would be able to move <br />ahead if there was agreement. Purcell stated that he had reviewed and agreed with the changes as <br />described. <br />Purcell asked for a motion to approve the updated ED contract. Don Ament moved to <br />approve, Alan Berryman seconded. Motion approved. <br />Purcell asked for a motion to approve the FY 2008 budget. Don Ament moved to approve, <br />Dennis Strauch seconded. Motion approved. <br />GC Action Items <br />Nominate /Elect GC Chair <br />Purcell said he is current chair and Mike Ryan is the vice - chair. Ament proposed that Purcell <br />remain as chair for another year and nominated Purcell as chair and Ryan as vice - chair. Purcell <br />said we would be better served to rotate and that somebody should certainly step up for 2009. <br />Bleed said Purcell would be the right choice to continue as we continue to implement the <br />Program and commended him for a job well done. Dan Luecke said it is important to have <br />continuity early in the Program and it is the right thing to do to have Purcell remain chair for <br />another year. <br />Ament moved to approve, Norm DeMott seconded. Motion approved. <br />Select GC Liaisons for Advisory Committees <br />Purcell stated that the purpose of this agenda item was to select a GC liaison for each committee, <br />one at a time. The FC does not need a liaison because most of the members are on the GC and <br />the FC chair will always be the liaison. The Adaptive Management Working Group is only a <br />working group, so it is not clear if we need a formal liaison. Brian Barels asked about the roles <br />and expectations of the GC liaisons and how they relate to the roles and expectations of the ED's <br />role. Purcell said the original context would be to have a liaison on each committee to help the <br />committee chair bring things back to the GC. Kowalski said except for the Land Advisory <br />Committee (LAC), the Final Program Document does not call for a GC liaison for the <br />This document is a draft based on one person's notes of the meeting. The official meeting minutes may be different <br />if corrections are made by the Governance Committee before approval. Page 2 of 7 <br />
