In a new site, we would have some affilitiation with the United Chuch of Canada.
I am going to suggest 2-3 hrs / month for Admin to check in, a twice yearly review of say 7hrs, followed by a conference call with moderators/admins and Admin and report back re status. This equals 50hs at a bill-rate of say $75/h
United chuch of Canada would also be responsible for domain costs. (minimal, but need to ensue done)
If United Chuch of Canada owns site, then content would reside in the same type hosting models as poposed for an independent site, though United Church of canada may have some bulk purchasing we cna get in on . need to find out.
