The committee VOTED to approve the motion.

II. Governance

A.

Policy 856 update

We discussed the suggested language changes for the policy based on recommendations from our advisors at the LIU.

J. Lewis made a motion to Send the policy to the full board for a vote.

Paul had also noted through email that he supported this plan.

The committee VOTED to approve the motion.

B.

Board Recruitment

We may still need resumes for all three candidates

Next steps:

Christie drafted an onboarding process for new board members; she will email it to Joselyn and Paul for input; we can potentially use this with our new candidates.

 

In order to discuss the board recruitment and elections (decision about which board positions we want to fill and potential elections) and keep the process moving forward before our next regular meeting in February, we will look for another meeting time this month.

C.

Strategic Planning

Christie will contact Charter Choices, confirm our plans to proceed, and ask Jesse if he wants to join the next Governance committee meeting and/or plan a separate meeting to discuss our goals with their facilitation. 

III. Closing Items

A.

Adjourn Meeting

There being no further business to be transacted, and upon motion duly made, seconded and approved, the meeting was adjourned at 4:41 PM.

Respectfully Submitted,
J. Lewis
