$32,500 worth of left-overs

September 28, 2005

As of April 30, 2005, $32,500 remained unspent in the 2004-2005 Trinity Western Student Association (TWUSA) budget. This money will be carried into the 2005-2006 budget, said Greg Norris, Vice President for Finance.

Norris said a higher than expected revenue from the Cube, a used book store service run by Student Council, was part of the reason for the surplus. Council charges a $1-5 handling fee for each book sold.

Some expenditures that council had budgeted for did not happen, contributing to the excess cash. For example, Sophomore Representative Jeff Dunkin budgeted $700 for a fire-pit that did not occur because it was not approved by administration.

Council will present and vote on the 2005-2006 budget at the Annual General Meeting on October 11.

Now you go...
