II. Governance
  A. Updates on Fall Work
   
Grievance Policy Updates: recently we encountered a grievance and identified one issue in the policy as written (training for the board to effectively handle a grievance). 

 

Board has scheduled training over the next 45 days to meet this goal. Policy needs to be less rigid in terms of the timelines. 

 

Executive Evaluation: Last meeting we discussed potential questions for the CEO evaluation. We will wait for the third party consulting team to advise the board on next steps. 

 

Policy Updates: 
  B. New Members and Orientation Plan
   
We added four board members to begin in February and run a term through January 31, 2023. 

 

Another candidate, Darrell Kain, was recommended by Jay. I met with him and think he is a strong candidate for Foundation or board come July. George was meeting him next.
