KRF advised the committee on the current status of the contract with Bodden-Hamilton. They are requesting to be paid an additional sum of $10,000.00.
They have agreed that they need to complete the video at no additional fee, but will require funds to manage and administrate web site and social media.
KRF explains that it appears based on their explanation to us a big chunk of the proposed budget was used up by them on travel expenses, however we were never advised by them that we were exceeding the amount allocated in the contract for travel, which has now left us short for other contract deliverables.
EG suggests that a meeting with them while they are in town next week is in order and to keep the discussion confidential only two members of the committee will meet with them along with GF. It is discussed that EG and BR as members of the original EDAPSC would be the most logical, but it is also suggested that KRF as Chair of the new committee should participate. It is decided that EG and KRF will meet with reps from B-H and GF to discuss the contract and negotiate a compromise.
Meeting adjourned at 10:36 p.m.
Next meeting January 19, 2012 at 9:00 a.m. at Gateways Inn.
