Well, as of right now I've decided that neither reimbursement is getting done until at least the next working meeting (mid-Jan) and each gets voted on (or not- then she doesn't get paid!). I'll also be raising my hand in objection if she does ask for a vote. But I have called a meeting for next week of the Executive Board to let them ALL know of my feelings because another thing happened today!
Easy! Write her a check for the amt. agreed upon & tell her that is what the budget is for & it was not voted on to go over the amt. so therefore she has to pay the difference. Maybe if it happens to her enough she will get the picture. Budget=stick to it or pay out of pocket. Good luck!!!!!
Our PTO is having a money problem with the new president. Need advise! I am the treasurer (of 3 yrs) and not very confrontational so I'd like to know how to handle this. I gave her the balance of our budget on our holiday event (lets say original budget was $1000, there was $800 left). She spent $1200! These are items to be purchased and resold for profit. No time to be voted on by membership because our next meeting is in January. I know we'll make back the $$ but not comfortable with this. Recently, teacher requested item for class. She asked for majority vote from board, stating she knew it would still need to be approved by membership after the fact. We agreed to purchase UNDER $150. She spent $190! How do I handle this without losing it!
