A. Harpers Branch Creek Greenbelt Matching Funds—The Finance Committee recommends that SRCC make $500 available as matching funds to any contributions or grants received for improving the Harpers Branch Creek Greenbelt. Matching funds would come from the SRCC Capital Projects Account at APF, with the condition that the funds need to be matched by the end of May 2025. VOTE EXPECTED. Motion: SRCC will make available from its Capital Projects Account at the Austin Parks Foundation $500 to be used as matching funds for any donations or grants received for the purpose of improving the Harpers Branch Creek Greenbelt. These matching funds will only be available until the end of May 2025.
B. Advance Notification of Motions by SRCC—The Finance Committee discussed the straw poll regarding the Historical Preservation Committee’s gift agreement taken at the September 17th General Membership meeting. Although it was not binding, the vote was not posted on the agenda and committee members felt that it was not consistent with best practices for meeting procedures. In previous years, any proposed motion was identified on the agenda so that members could be alerted in advance. The Finance Committee recommends that SRCC return to standard practice regarding notification of expected votes. VOTE EXPECTED. SRCC will note on future agendas if a possible vote will be taken on an item of business, and except in unusual circumstances, SRCC will not vote on a motion that was not posted on the agenda.
