The Governance Facilitators have placed a Governance Poll into the voting system on behalf of the Maker Governance Community. This Governance Poll will be active for three days beginning on Monday, January 18 at 16:00 UTC.

This is a binary vote. In a binary vote, you may vote for a single option. You should vote for the option which you prefer. Alternatively, if you would accept either of the two options and have no preference between them, you should vote 'Abstain'.

Review

The community can vote in this poll to express support or opposition to transferring 12,700 Dai from the surplus buffer to members of the vault compensation working group for their past work organizing the vault compensation proposals. Funds will be allocated to individual members as follows:

@makerman: 6,300 Dai for 126 hours to [0x9ac6a6b24bcd789fa59a175c0514f33255e1e6d0]

Outcomes

If the votes for the 'Yes' option exceed the votes for the 'No' option then the following actions will be taken:

• These transfers will be included in the weekly Executive Vote on the Friday following the conclusion of this poll.
• If the Friday executive passes, then these transfers will execute after the GSM Pause Delay has expired.

If the votes for the 'No' option equal or exceed the votes for the 'Yes' option then no further action will be taken at this time.
