Scott and all,
Jesus! this practice seems completely unethical at a minimum. >:(
As ARIN is an ICANN SO, it is supposed to be open and
transparent given that they are a public service corporation...
I don't believe this passes the smell test...
As of today ICANN is currently being sued, perhaps this
will become an amended part of the original filing?

i am hesitant to have the policy sig get into the fee structure, as the
bylaws are clear that this is an EC function/responsibility. i would
hope we can find a path to discuss allocation and other policies without
getting into either the fee structure or rir operational details.
At ARIN, the way we deal with this issue is to remove any fee structure
language from the actual policy statement, and replace it with
non-binding language in an associated portion of the proposal (such as
in the rationale section) that requests that the Board consider making
changes to the fee structure. Such non-binding language sometimes gives
examples of the kinds of changes that might be suitable, but it's always
up to the Board to decide on the actual fee structure.
