Hey guys – we had a community deadline for NEARCON funding requests that has passed:
I also think the funding amount requested for the social media activities is high considering the output posted here. I would need to have a lot more detail about what’s being produced, whether the funding is for content production or engagement (or both), etc.
Since you do not have the support from the majority of the council for this proposal in this form, I am closing it out. Please feel free to submit a revised proposal for social media activities in the future.
I will also note just to be aware that the council is doing an aggressive review of how funding is allocated to community projects and may not be able to support long-term projects in the future in the same way as we have in the past. I know you guys are highly involved, active members of the community. I want to be transparent that we are constantly aiming to up-level and shift our approach going forward.
