ESIP and MOUs

[relphj]

Mark Parsons wrote in Slack:

I drafted some language on MoUs:

ESIP may establish memoranda of understanding (MoUs) with related organizations that describe areas of collaboration between the organizations. The Executive Director shall negotiate the MoU with the other organization in consultation with the Board. The president and ED shall approve the final MoU language and the ED shall sign. If the MoU involves any financial considerations, the Finance Committee Chair and Operations Director, shall also review and approve the final MoU. If the MoU provides for formal reciprocal partnership or membership, the external organization shall still go through the regular ESIP Partnership application and approval process.

I assume that Mark wishes that this language be reviewed and then the final language added to the P&P. Possibly at the end of 2.4 -- Fundraising and Proposal Development.
