Add Executive Committee member

We need to add one more member to the Executive Committee.  We would like to propose L. Tobacco as the fifth member to the EC at the board meeting to be voted on. 

B.

Discuss Recruiting

We discussed potential trustee candidates of varying experiences. It was clarified that other boards have trustees from banks that recuse themselves from financial decisions. We may want to just confirm there is no conflict of interest but do not anticipate as they are employees and not bank trustees. There is a candidate on a hospital foundation board who has a strong financial background.

Board On Track Training

The training happened with a few attendees.  We will share the link to the training with the entire board and plan follow-up training for committee members so they know how to create agendas and record minutes.

We are on track to have 11 board members by the March board meeting.
