4. Review
and approve WPFW 2014 Budget: Michelle Price presented the WPFW 2014 Budget and stated the budget has a 10% increase
in listener support and, based on the success of the current fund drive, it is attainable. She also noted increases in
the Website Income (6/5011), Community/Special Events (12/5750)and Grant Income-Other (16/5800), which were
underutilized revenue streams in the past and the increased amounts should be attainable. She noted salary expense is
reduced by the reduction of 2 positions.
Tony Norman stated the amount budgeted for Professional/Legal Services
(77/6530) seemed low based on the current status of the station and suggested an increase from $10,000.00 to
$20,000.00.
The committee members in attendance asked questions about the budget. It was noted that the budget has a
surplus, after the suggested amendment, of $53,672.00.
Marcus Jetter MOVED - The WPFW 2014 Budget presented to the
NFC, amended to increase Professional/legal services (77/6530) to $20,000.00 be approved .
