Motion:        Team Sponsor funds remaining in an account after the close of the second year be turned over to the Scholarship Fund.  The amount of money involved is very small but it sits there without any claim of ownership.  This motion would allow the treasurer to clear the record.

Motion Nr.  07 - 11 - 1                                   Date:  10 Nov 2007

Motion:           I make a motion that MPRA no longer allow it’s equipment, motorized or mechanical, to be borrowed by any outside organization, group, or individual.  This would also forbid renting out the equipment or swooping-out for other work.  It would also forbid park members to personally borrow something belonging to MPRA and using it for their own benefit at home or other location.

Discussion:  In the past, each time a piece of equipment has been loaned-out we have experienced problems.

            a.  The equipment would not be returned in a reasonable amount of time, we would be told   1 week and it would be gone until we called and ask for it back.  Even than, it may take an extra long amount of time to get it back.

            b.  One organization or person would borrow it and than loan or let another take over the equipment.  We would not know who had it or who was responsible for it

            c.  Someone would get the equipment themselves or have someone with a key get it out for them.  About half of the time we did not know when it went or who got it --- it was gone.

            d.  The equipment would come back broken and we would not know about the problem.  The condition of the equipment was not known when it went out and they would say it was that way when they got it.

We loan a “4400 John Deere ($15,000), a 1230 Ford ($5,000), Top Dresser ($7,500)” without a word of responsibility.  Do you think you or anyone else can borrow $27,500 of equipment without signing a note of responsibility and a deposit of over $1000.
