Background   When Area 92 was established, we did not know how much money would be available to fund the different Area activities. We were conservative in our funding. In 1998, Area 92 was able to send a substantial amount of money that was in excess of our prudent reserve to the General Service Office.

The current Washington State East Area Delegate has incurred expenses for hotels and travel each year several hundred dollars in excess of Area and GSO funding. Area 92 provides the Delegate with $200 to help with expenses. Most Areas either entirely fund the Delegate or fund $500 per year.

If Passed   The Delegate would receive an advance of $500 prior to the General Service Conference annually. Upon return, any reasonable expenses not covered by the advance would be reimbursed.

If Not Passed   The Area would continue to provide the Delegate with $200 to help with expenses prior to the General Service Conference annually.

Notes:	1)	The above background information was written by the Area 92 Chairperson and published in the September 1999 issue of the Area 92 Newsletter.
	2)	District 7 unsuccessfully tried to amend this motion at the Assembly (seconded by District 11) by suggesting ", and upon return be reimbursed for any reasonable expenses" be removed from the motion.
