[NCSG-PC] [Draft] Proposed NCSG Comment on the FY19 Budget

[Mueller, Milton L]

Ayden
I’ve had a chance to read your comments and congratulate you on doing so much work to go through the budget and prepare an intelligent evaluation of it.
I agree with most of the comments but propose a few minor amendments here and there, which I will put onto the Google doc using suggest mode.
The only point of disagreement is #17 your support for continued intersessionals. I don’t think there is consensus on that and in fact after the last one I heard several people who supported them question their value or frequency. A good middle ground might be to have them once every other year.

Anyway, I’ll enter my comments on the doc.

Subject: [Draft] Proposed NCSG Comment on the FY19 Budget

Hi all,

I have prepared a first draft of a proposed NCSG comment on the FY19 budget. This took quite some time to comb through, and I might have missed some things. So before I share this comment on the main discussion list and face the inevitable wrath of criticism and dislike, I thought I might share it here to get some initial feedback. I have also cc'd in a few other people who might not be on this mailing list but who I think might be able to offer some constructive edits on its contents:

Many thanks for your help,

Ayden

P.S. Carlos, if one sentence looks familiar, it's because I copied and pasted it from an email you sent to the NCSG list last year re: our Reserve Fund comment. I hope this is okay. Thanks!
