Allocate $50 to hire a resident agent

All corporations need a resident agent to accept official mail. In the past, we've been our own resident agent. But the MEDC grant requires us to get a fundraising license, which requires us to have a resident agent at a different address. If we're going to use a different address, hiring someone is the best choice because something professional guarantees that we get the important mail.

Proposal:
Allocate $50 to hire a resident agent.
