Review and action on support for ongoing consulting with Tom Weber

-Tom Kriegl suggested slight change to initial Tom Weber proposal (3^rd paragraph, 1^st sentence). After some discussion, it was decided the change was minor and not needed.

-Discussion continued due to confusion surrounding a change between the initial number of hours and cost associated with the consultation after further discussion with Tom Weber.
