In this case, I believe (correct me if I'm wrong someone) we would need the Board of Responsibility and Little Power to acknowledge an official "treasurer" for corporate-status and tax purposes. It would be prudent to schedule some point in the near future to perhaps convene and take care of this and any other formalities that comprise the "Responsibility" part of the board's title.

Additionally, note that anyone can indeed play the role or wear the hat of "exchequer" at any time as one of the "Sudo Functionaries":

"
As a collective, functionary positions are voluntary roles taken on by willing members and intended to change regularly. No person may hold more than one position simultaneously, unless permitted by sudo room. Any member of sudoroom may perform any of the functions of any of the Functionaries, but the Functionaries are expected to perform their duties regularly and must perform them if no one else can or will. Any Functionaries can voluntarily cede the role to another member any time, and is replaced if another member is voted into the function by a simple majority vote.

    • Presents the budget during meetings, as articulated in the budget process below.
    • Coordinates with Scribe to ensure budget-related information is accurate and available to all members.
    • Co-facilitates (with the Facilitator) the budget process below.

Hello Sudo,

I want to make it clear that eventually - not right now - I want to find a replacement for myself as Sudo Treasurer.

Responsibilities
The things the Treasurer has to do are:
(i)be responsible for filing yearly taxes,
(ii) deposit misc. funds into the bank account
(iii) give out misc money that sudo room approves
(iv) report to sudo room the state of finances.

Fundraising
Additionally, since Sudo Room is once again receiving less income each month than expenditure, a good Treasurer would have some fundraising ideas, and/or want to execute other's ideas.

My reason for leaving is to clear up space in my life for a career change - not because the job is terribly dramatic, difficult or involved. (Post Burning Man mental spring cleaning :) )

Thanks for listening,
