Held in account 611

$39,661.16 after transfer to 90-0-31403-61401 (Public Safety), before adjustment

General Budget: 
$11,559 

COCA Expenditures for Fall 2007 to date:
$51,228.16

Stipulated funds as of 12:30pm, 28 November 2007:
Gross 
	$40,657.00
Net 
	-$10,577.16 
Pending
	$6,174 (very rough estimate)

	The final figures for Fall 2007 could exceed currently available funds by anywhere from ten to twenty thousand dollars, which is contingent upon adjustments and approvals from numerous sources. 
~The HALA conference figure needs reappraisal, for Jerry Vlasak did not require $500 and the amount requested by Public Safety is not currently known by COCA. Public Safety initially requested over $3,600 but COCA was unwilling to pay any more than $2,000. 
~The $300 PO for Delivery Express exceeded the required amount by a very small amount.
~COCA does not currently know how much to deduct from the HH‘07 Public Safety charge.
~No final decision was made on the honorarium for Keith Henry, and the students have yet to contact COCA with any updates.
~We do not have the final requested amount for Students for Justice in Palestine.
	One of the biggest issues has been the failure of $24,000 transfer from COCA’s 611 account to the 777 Halloween account, to which we had subsequently charged all Halloween costs. At this time I do not know the fate of absolutely all charges, as multiple charges were re-routed and I don‘t know whether they were ultimately deducted from 611 or 777. The following have had forms submitted for processing but I do not know their current status:
Zardon Richardson -- $100
Big A Little a -- $800
Team Robspierre -- $1000
Mikio Kennedy -- $700
Neil Fleishman a.k.a. Infinite Sun -- $700
Plus Move -- $200
Community Health -- $195
All other submissions have been confirmed.

COCA is therefore requesting an immediate transfer of $5,000 to account 777 to cover Public Safety and an additional $5,000 to COCA’s 611 account. Additional requests will be made as they are known, but a total of $10,000 is needed very urgently. Thank you,
