CTS Budget Approval Process l l l Requires approval by CTS Ex. Com Remember the Budget can be modified later as desired by Ex. Com Must make a motion for approval CTS Chair holds Discussion CTS Chair conducts the Vote Majority rules, if quorum present. IEEE Central Texas Section

Section / Chapter Funds Release Rules l Section Chair authorizes / approves expenditures l l l Established by By Laws Section Chair may delegate authority, i. e. , l (Chapter Chairs (up to approved chapter budget), Treasurer, etc. ) Only release max funds approved by the Section budget Remember: l Treasurer Controls “ALL” Section Funds l l Approves & Controls all financial accounts l Section & Chapter Concentration Bank Accounts l Section Investment Funds Primary Check Writer l Alternates are other Section Officers l Funds disbursements over $5, 000 requires two signatures IEEE Central Texas Section

Procedures for Reimbursement l How do I get reimbursement for Chapter expenses? l Send a request to the Section Treasurer l l l Include a description of the expense (e. g. Chapter Meeting Dinner) Travel to be reported on an IEEE Travel Expense Worksheet Include a copy of the receipts that you need reimbursed l l l IRS & IEEE require receipts for all expenditures over $25. 00. Include your return address for sending check Mail a hard copy (keep a copy) or email an image to: Garrett Polhamus, Treasurer, IEEE Central Texas Section AFRL/HED 8262 Hawks Road Brooks City-Base, Texas 78235 -5147 Garrett. polhamus@brooks. af. mil polhamus@ieee. org 210. 536. 2091 IEEE Central Texas Section

Chapter Bank Accounts l Can your Chapter open a bank account? l YES, but……… l Pros l l Quick access to funds Always know status of available funds Have more flexibility to administer chapter activities Cons l l Increased workload of maintaining / balancing account Liability l l Order of Liability is Chapter, Section, Region, IEEE HQ Required Reporting l l Must have Treasurer, Secretary and Chairman. Must submit Annual Financial Report or the Section loses rebate. Finances must be tracked in IEEE Section (L 50 Report) format Signatory from IEEE HQ in IEEE Section format IEEE Central Texas Section

Chapter Bank Accounts l l SO…… When is a Chapter bank account appropriate? l l l It’s generally appropriate when the chapter has a significant amount of income and associated expenses. If your chapter is interested, please work with the Treasurer in setting up your account. Remember, if you set up your own account, you will always need to coordinate with the Section Treasurer since he (she) is responsible for the proper utilization and management of the funds.

Region 5 Robotics Competition Norman Oklahoma 2004 Denver 2005 The 2005 competition is a mock up of an automated warehouse. Each team is to build a robot that will take commands from a dispatcher unit regarding the location of a stored object and where that container is to be moved. The robot must have a wireless communication circuit to receive commands; a drive system for motion; a navigation system to move from one room to another; and a manipulator to handle the container.

IEEE Central Texas Section Spring Planning - 2005 Notes and Observations l l SPAC program material shared with student branches. Material well received but no events organized in 2004. Student branches may want to host an event in 2005. No undergraduate paper submissions to Region 5 Paper Contest from the entire South Area for the past several years. Will actively solicit papers from the Central Texas student branches. The Students like attending and participating in IEEE Conferences. As Conferences are scheduled announced, the student branches will be notified and invited. The Student Branches and Advisors very much appreciate the support and interest given them by the IEEE Central Texas Section
