# Community Pool Spend

#### Community Pool Spend <a href="#community-pool-spend" id="community-pool-spend"></a>

The Community Pool Spend proposal is a special type of proposal that allows the community to collectively vote on how funds are spent from the community pool.

Selecting `community-pool-spend` for `proposal type` after executing the `draft-proposal` command will request the following parameters:

* **Proposal title:** the distinguishing name of the proposal, typically the way the that explorers list proposals.
* **Proposal author(s):** the person(s) making the proposal.
* **Proposal summary:** a high level, brief overview of the proposal.
* **Proposal details:** a detailed, expansive explanation of the proposal.
* **Proposal forum url:** the web location which contains more detail and where people can engage in discussion regarding the proposal.
* **Proposal vote option context:** The option set of a proposal refers to the set of choices a participant can choose from when casting its vote. The initial option set includes the following options: `Yes`, `No`, `NoWithVeto`, `Abstain`. The`NoWithVeto` counts as `No` but also adds a `Veto` vote. `Abstain` option allows voters to signal that they do not intend to vote in favour or against the proposal but accept the result of the vote.
* **Proposal deposit:** the amount of AUM deposited in order for the proposal to be considered. The minimum amount required my MANTRA Chain is 100 OM. (100\_000\_000 uom).
* **Msg's authority:** This is the wallet that has the authority to spend the funds. This is typically the same wallet submitting the proposal.
* **Msg's recipient:** This is the recipient wallet address where funds will be sent, if the proposal is accepted.
