Voting/Supporting decrease 4.9% (happened last dues increase). August, 2019 Projections: Associate numbers have decreased (and didn’t meet 2018 projections, which increases the revenue gap). 2019 budget based on 65,313 associates.

Challenges Projecting Year-End These projections are based on two methods: Straight-line projection using the July through October results from 2018 (e.g. membership revenue, memberships, office supplies, travel expenses). Manual estimates used when there are differences between 2019 and 2018 (e.g. timing differences in revenue items — like investment proceeds – or expense items – like OFB partner contributions, items where last year does not reflect current year – like legal costs for harassment training or when costs need to be journaled out of the legal budget).

Starting Revenue Assumptions for 2020 Associate memberships increase 1.5% 60,564 Revenue: $1,059,866 Voting and supporting drops by 180 6,326 Revenue: $727,485 “Late Pays” Revenue: $35,000 Total Membership Revenue: $1,822,351

I’ve approached Marion County again. Lease goes through December 2019.
Expenses: What is included Staffing A pool for salary increases. Continuing our contract lobbyist relationship for full year in 2020. Overlap of 8 weeks to train Patty Kuester successor (retirement). Part-time or contract person to take on WAC and Support 3 County FBs. Note: There is a travel budget added under Field for this person too. Estimated vacation carry-over costs. Funds to engage MTFB staffer in Oregon to develop leadership program.
Expenses: What is included Postage and Printing costs increased much more than budgeted for 2019. This is due to change in mailing service for membership mailers. Looking into ways to mitigate this and estimate more accurately. Anne Marie has carved out costs and has submitted a lower budget proposal for Info and PR. Most other staff-driven expense lines are status quo or small changes.
Request This draft budget is built on trying to support OFB’s three strategic priorities: Stronger membership, stronger county FBs, stronger advocacy. We also have an obligation to make the dues changes adopted by the Delegates last as long as possible. I request guidance from the Budget and Investment Committee setting priorities for getting to a balanced budget, and for guidance as to a surplus number the Committee would like to achieve in 2020. If we can get an August financial completed, it will be barely before the September board meeting, so I may not have significantly more/better information at that meeting than I do now.
