<p>I have to study this but if someone already has and knows off the top of their head. Last year there was a deficit budget but we had much better fundraising - what was the net deficit/surplus from that budget?</p>

<div dir="ltr">It appears (I just noticed last night; I thought our next meeting was in April) that we have a budget meeting in December. Ahead of that, I wanted to ask if the EC had a timeline for the proposed budget.
<div> </div>
<div>Last term, we held one or two teleconferences after we had the proposed budget. I found those helpful, and would encourage us to do that again. I don't know that they resolved much, but at least we knew going in where the flashpoints were. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>In any case, I'd appreciate knowing when we can expect the proposed budget so I can plan my time accordingly.</div>
