IV. BILLS AND COMMUNICATIONS
Regarding the schedule of payments, Ms. Brylinski handed out a chart showing the 2015 Grant Applicant Cost Sharing recipients and questioned the Board if the payment to the consultant for the CFA-Priority Project Presentations should be for 50% of the consultant cost or some other amount.
