- Spending Policy - For Investment Account Denise Clifton/ Clayton Fisher
- General Comments, then Kicked to Committee.
- Unrealistic to expect it to grow to $4 Million
- It will take 30 years assuming Rule of 72
- $572,000 becomes $1,144,000 in 2028
- $1,144,000 becomes $2,288,000 in 2038
- $2,288,000 becomes $4,576,000 in 2048
- We are/will start getting pushback from Donors when they see a big Investment Portfolio that just keeps growing.
- We need a responsible Spending Policy - perhaps similar to the Dickey Policy, to be used if necessary to meet the objectives of the Mission Statement.
- There is a policy in place that says 20% of Annual Income gets put into the Investment Portfolio. For the past several years, this has not been done. So, we either need to do it (including past years) or amend/rescind the policy.
- I can only find where it was discussed and moved to Committee 5/21/2016.
- See attached minutes.
