### Summary
|
|
|
|
The Co-op Cloud Federation has [a common fund](https://opencollective.com/coop-cloud#category-BUDGET) which can be used by federation members by proposing [budgets](https://docs.coopcloud.tech/federation/resolutions/passed/004/).
|
|
|
|
With Resolution 009, we want to introduce the idea of a common fund buffer.
|
|
|
|
This buffer is proposed to be set at 1,500 EUR. When the buffer is reached, no more budgets can be proposed. When the fund increases once more, budgets can resume.
|
|
|
|
The buffer is in place to reserve funds for critical collective spending when we have limited income.
|
|
|
|
### Details
|
|
|
|
1,500 EUR is fairly arbitrarily chosen but seems to be a reasonable amount of money to cover situations where, e.g. we need to pay for servers, domains, mail accounts or other common critical infrastructure.
