Question: Voting on Admission fees

Is it customary at a meeting to vote on how much is charged to get into an event? Should this be determined by those running the event based on whether or not it is a fundraiser or not?

Typically the board would decide whether an event is going to be a fundraiser. The event committee would decide on admission fee based on budget. Normally admission fee wouldn't be voted on at a regular meeting unless there was a controversy that the board wanted the general membership to settle. In general, it's better to let committees do their work and keep details like that from cluttering up the general meeting.
