Greetings, I like that you've outlined the reimbursement protocol, but not requiring pre-approval is going to cause issues. Likely sooner rather than later.
I don't have all the facts regarding February's build budget, so feel free to correct me if I'm missing something. I appreciate that there was no written agreement but it seems what you're doing is the same game that we dealt with at the last space and getting electrical installed. I'm sure you remember the frustration we all had with that situation. Verbal agreements are binding. So I'm not sure how it's "fair to everyone" when one person is getting screwed out of $150. Everyone needs to remember to save their receipts. regards, Andrew L On Sat, Feb 22, 2014 at 7:45 PM, Torrie Fischer <[email protected]>wrote: > I was told today that someone has already spent possibly more than the > $150 we > have in buildout+maintenence budget for the month.
