A. 109. Seven on the Light Bulb Task Force Sub-Committee, who report to the 12 on the Light Bulb Task Force, appointed by the 15 on the Trustee Board. Their recommendation is reviewed by the Executive Finance Committee of 5, who place it on the agenda of the 18-member Finance Committee. If they approve, they bring a motion to the 27-member Church Board, which appoints another 12-member review committee. If they recommend that the Church Board proceed, a resolution is brought to the Congregational Business Meeting. They appoint another 8-member review committee. If their report to the next Congregational Business Meeting supports the changing of a light bulb, and the congregation votes in favor, the responsibility to carry out the light bulb change is passed on to the Trustee Board, which in turn appoints a 7-member committee to find the best price for new light bulbs. Their recommendation of which hardware store has the best buy must then be reviewed by the 23-member Ethics Committee to make certain that the hardware store has no connection to Disneyland. They report back to the Trustee Board which then commissions the Trustee Board which then commissions the Trustee in charge of the janitor to ask him to make the change. By then the janitor discovers that one more light bulb has burned out.
