What is appropriate level of representation? Who hears people’s proposals for ideas and funding? Does it go through ACS to Gary to make an ask? ACS’s role in vetting budgetary asks up through Gary? Questions on why SIO and other places asking for funding for sustainability when it should go to Gary’s sustainability staff?
