M2018-001 Quarterly Meeting 1/21/2018 Floor Action by Gus H. for Betsy G.: Motion regarding Martha Watson to doonate $100 to the General Service Board of Alcoholics Anonymous, Inc., as is our custom when we lose a current or past delegate in our Area, or a current or past trustee in our region.  A longtime member of Area 67, she passed away near Dallas after complications from a stroke.  Martha was 89 years old, and on December 31st of last year would have completed 44 years of sobriety.  She was very much looking forward to reaching that milestone.                                                                                                                                                                                                                               Martha was definitely a force to be reckoned with; however, her knowledge of steps, traditions, and concepts was unmatched in the opinion of this student.                                                                                                                   In addition to serving as SETA's Panel 31 Delegate (1981-1982), Martha also served as an Appointed Committee Member on the Trustee's CFC Committee at the General Service Board.                                                                                                                                                                                                   Martha belonged to the Rosewood Group, which she helped form and regularly attended the Working With Others Group, both in West Houston.  Thank you for your consideration.                                               Respectfully submitted, Betsy Gerber, Panel 59 Past Delegate.   Paul M. seconded the motion.  There were none opposed.  Motion passed.                                                              Passed 1,24,25,26

M2018-004 Quarterly Meeting 10/13/2018 Christina S. The Area Treasurer motions to allow the Treasurer to obtain a debit card for the SETA operating account and place the debit card on file with the hotel to cover any lodging already approved for Quarterly Assemblies. BACKGROUND: Prior to the October 2017 Assembly the Sheraton North Houston would allow us to send a SETA check a month prior to the Assembly. This check covered the ballroom, hospitality room, etc. The Treasurer on the weekend of the Assembly would then pay, by check, all rooms covered by a previous Assembly actions. The Sheraton contacted our Alt‐Chair and let her know some of their procedures have recently changed due to compliance requirements. The hotel is requesting a credit card/debit card be on file and that a cashier’s check be sent two weeks prior to the Assembly if we do not want to charge the card for the room expenses. In order to accommodate the Sheraton’s request a couple of things were done the last few Assemblies:
1. The Assembly does not have a credit card/debit card. As a temporary fix a personal credit card is on record with the Sheraton.
2. To avoid the credit card being charged a cashier’s check was given to the hotel prior to the Assembly to pay for the rooms voted by the Assembly to be covered (minus any rooms we know will not be used). This means we pay before the Assembly any anticipated
rooms that possibly could be used. The Sheraton refunds us for any unused funds.After discussion motion passed with simple majority. 		 Passed 1,6
M2018-005 Quarterly Meeting 10/13/2018 Annette C. The SETA Newsletter Committee motions to add $650 to the already approved line item on the SETA Newsletter Committee's 2018 budget to allocate funds in the budget to cover the cost of printing for the Newsletter. BACKGROUND: When the 2018 Budget Meeting occurred there was not a Newsletter Committee Chair. Due, to no representation a budget for lodging only was provided to the Newsletter Committee. We now have a Newsletter Chair but no funds for printing. Funds for printing by the Newsletter Committee in 2014 was $362.06, 2015 was $632, 2016 was $849 and no funds were used in 2017. This motion is to support the Newsletter Committee, allowing them the ability to provide printed versions of the Newsletter to the Area Assembly. Passed with simple majority Passed 1,5,11

M2019-001 Quarterly Meeting 1/20/2019 Vern P. Motion for 2018 Hotel Lodging Expense Accounting – ● Motion: I move that a full, accurate, and complete report of 2018 lodging expenses, itemized by budget holder and any other needed budget categories, including refunds from Hotel(s), and accuracy verified with 2018 budget holders, be created and shared with the area at the next area assembly. Should the treasurer not believe they can accomplish this, then this motion shall be fulfilled by the Finance Committee or an Ad-Hoc committee, and the treasurer shall participate in such committee to assist in generating the report. Should the report indicate that overpayment to a Hotel(s) or others be revealed then the treasurer or appropriate committee shall develop an action plan to recover the area’s funds. Intent: To provide the groups, districts, and member of the Area with an accurate report of lodging expenses, re-imbursements, and potential overpayments to hotel(s) or others.Background: In 2018 the Sheraton N. Houston began requiring that hotel rooms paid in advance. This created a budgetary expense reporting problem in that the treasurer would allocate lodging expenses against each budget holders’ budget, even when the budget holder was not utilizing lodging as they were local to the Sheraton and did not need or want a hotel room. The treasurer did allow that if she was notified in advance in e-mail by a given deadline that a budget holder would not need the hotel room, then she would not log it as an expense against that budget holders budget. However, in practice, this did not happen, in the case of this budget holder, the treasurer was notified a hotel room would not be needed for the April or July assemblies, yet, there was a lodging expense for those assemblies logged in the budget expense summary sent by the treasurer on 9/24. Additionally, in talking with two other Houston based budget holders, who did not use hotel rooms, they were unaware of this arrangement, and so had not notified the treasurer of their not using lodging funds via e-mail, thus, per the treasurers stated practice, they would still have had lodging expenses allocated against their budgets despite never having actually realized such an expense. This leads to several problems: 7 1) Reporting of expenses that did not actually occur against a budget holders’ budget 2) Potential missing money – where did the money go that was reported as an expense? a. Was the hotel overpaid for rooms never booked or used? b. Did something else happen to the money? ● Area Committee was able to reach substantial unanimity; will present to Area Assembly on Sunday, January 20, 2019 Passed 1,5,6,20

M2019-003 Quarterly Meeting 4/14/2019 Troy B-D.Motion to Discontinue Gratitude Dinner – MOTION:The motion is to discontinue the Annual SETA Gratitude Dinner, effective immediately, and to more the balance of the funds in the Gratitude Dinner account ($1,989) to the SETA general fund.BACKGROUND:Over the course of my SETA career, I have noticed a trend regarding the annual Gratitude Dinner of lessening attendance and increasing difficulty in getting commitments from the various Districts (generally speaking). Recently, several groups and districts questioned the use of contributions. The amount of funds used to cover hotel rooms is especially upsetting to those members. This makes it harder to ask the groups and districts to contribute to what is essentially a party. In January 2019 at the Assembly, a sense of the Area regarding this matter indicated substantial unanimity that the Dinner should be discontinued. Motion was passed with a voting count of 64 in favor; 24 opposed Passed 1,23 .

M2019-007 Quarterly Meeting 4/14/2019 Sara D. Archivist Archives Repository Relocation – • The Space Itself: o We have spoken to Intergroup's Executive Secretary, Kelli R. and have toured the space they can make available to us. o If we agree to the offer, they are prepared to remove a wall between 2 storage rooms to provide 350 Sq. Ft. for our records and administrative space. o This footprint is less than the 621 Sq. Ft. stated on the lease at our current location (of which my tape measure will dispute) but the actual storage and administrative space we presently use calculates to between 220-230 Sq. Ft. o We've also been advised that the Meeting Space at the rear of their facility will be made available to us to hold our Committee Meetings and any Future Events we might have at no additional cost. (schedule permitting) • The Changes in Rent: o We pay $721 a month at our current location. o On Sep 24th the Intergroup Board of Trustees had Officially Purposed a $450 Monthly Rental Payment. (that's a $271 savings every month or $3252 annually) o The cost of the remodel has a bid of $1850 of which we are told will be passed on to Area 67. o They've advised us that they will break up that charge into equal payments over the term of the lease, interest free. (20 equal payments of $92) o With those charges added, the Monthly Rent will be $542. (that's still a savings of $179 a month or $2148 annually) o The Area also has been given the option to make a 1-time payment of $1850 which will reduce the rent back down to $450 a month. o If the Area chooses the installment plan there will be re-negotiations of our lease when it lapses which will remove the renovation charges. • The Lease: o The lease will be for 1yr 9mo (starting 01 Jan 2020) as that will be when Intergroup's current 20-year lease will lapse (Sep 2021) and it's only prudent to establish our lease into the same timeframe. 4o The Board will require SETA Archives to carry its own insurance on the repository but the savings on rent easily cover that cost and insurance has already been budgeted for 2020. • Security: o Security locks for the Repository will be re-keyed so that only authorized personnel will have access. (Intergroup will keep a key onsite as our landlord) o After hour access (to retrieve displays or prepare for a presentation) will be given via an access code for the security system.  Passed 1,2,6,20
M2019-007 Continued Quarterly Meeting 4/14/2019 Committee Officers will be trained on its operation and we're also advised that these codes are individually assigned so a record of who's coming and going is maintained for security reasons. • In Closing: o We have been advised that The Intergroup Board of Trustees will write up an Official Proposal that should be ready in time to present at the Oct Assembly with all that has been stated. o The Chair wants to Thank Everyone for All the Support that has been received on this matter and feels confident that all things will all go well.

M2022-001 Quarterly Meeting 1/2022 Motion to extend Hybrid Area Assemblies-Ron S Committee Purpose: This committee prepares the budget for the following fiscal year. This is done with the Budget Committee comprised of the Area Treasurer, Finance Chair and any assembly member requiring funding for approved Area service work. Also, we study and review the needs of the Assembly as a whole, as they relate to income and expense, with an aim to insure a healthy, but practical Area financial status that honors the intent of the Seventh Tradition of self-support. Purpose of this motion: The Area Finance Commitee has been charged with the preparation and presentation of this motion by the Area Chair. The motion is to determine, if in fact, the Area Assembly should continue Hybrid Assemblies throughout 2022 (April/July and October). Background: The fellowship has relied upon Audio Visual Technology (Zoom) since the start of the Pandemic, approximately early April 2020. Without this technology it would have been almost impossible to conduct meetings and the business of Southeast Texas Area 67. The current state of this pandemic changes daily and with this in mind, the Finance Committee presents this motion in accordance with Concept IX:"Now we come to the all-important attribute of vision. Vision is, I think the ability to make good estimates, both for the immediate and for the more distant future. Some might feel this sort of striving to be a sort of heresy, because we AA's are constantly telling ourselves, "One Day at a Time." But that invaluable principle really refers to our mental and emotional lives and means chiefly that we are not foolishly to repine over the past nor wishfully to daydream about the future...Vision is therefore the very essence of prudence, an essential virtue if there ever was one. Of course we shall often miscalulate the future in whole or in part, but that is better than to refuse to think at all. The making of estimates has several aspects. We look to the past and present experience to see what we think it means. From this we derive a tentative idea or policy. Looking first at the nearby future, we ask how our idea or policy might work. Then we ask how our policies or ideas might apply under the several differing conditions that could arise in the longer future. (AA Service Manual p.38-39) With that being so stated, please consider the following: 1) Cost of each assembly prior to additional fees-$5,012.48; 2) The purpose of Hybrid Assemblies; Inclusiveness during Pandemic, "To us, the realm of the Spirit is broad, roomy, all inclusive, never exclusive or forbidding to those who earnestly seek. (BB, p.46). This motion ONLY covers the hotel's additional audio-visual component for the hybrid assemblies. Use of additional unrestricted funds remaining in the budget. Cost of cancellation-the estimate of the additional cost per assembly, for the sake of clarity and transparency; Quote #3449-3186 SETA Assembly-Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Houston Intercontinental Airport 15747 John F Kennedy Blvd Houston, TX 77032 Tel: TBD Equipment Rental/Operator Labor Setup Charges Ext. Price $1,502.00+$420 (setup/breakdown) SUBTOTAL Service Charge $1,922.00+$410.88 Total Estimate $2,332.88/Assembly EVENT CANCELLATION-if customer cancels the event or the provision of audiovisual equipment, labor or services by Encore 30 days or more before the first day of the Event, no cancellation charges will apply, except for any expenses actually incurred or services actually rendered by Encore, which will be payable to the Customer. MOTION: The Finance Committee motions that $7,500 in unrestricted funds be used to cover the Audio/Visual costs for three Hybrid Assemblies in 2022. Rounded up for unforeseen cost: $2,500.00/Assembly=$7,500/Year. Passed 1,5,6,14,17,
M2022-002 Quarterly Meeting 1/2022 Motion for additional printing of minutes: The funding for providing hard copies of the Area Secretary minutes were reduced in the budget meeting in 2020 to mitigate the loss in printing copies that were not being used. The thought process of the Budget Committee was to cut cost so that we may fully fund our Delegate. During the July Assembly, many members of the fellowship expressed concern that there were no copies available during the assembly. The Area Secretary provided a minimal amount of copies (30) during the October Assembly and the cost exceeded the budgeted amount for the year, which as $100 for the entire year of 2021. This motion is a request to increase the funding for copies for 2022 AND request the difference between the amount funded for 2021 and the amount actually paid for additional copies. Budgeted $100/2021 Acutal Cost $213.25/October Assembly Difference $113.25/2021. The amount requested for 2022 will be an additional $700.00 calculated as follows: Budgeted $100.00 Actual Cost $200.00/Assembly ($800-Total) Difference $700.00. The Committee voted FOR this motion by majority vote. Withdrawn 1,5,6,25
