Agenda
Board of Directors
Discuss nomination list
Meeting Minutes
Board of Directors
Number of directors
Obvious agreement to keep an odd numerical value to the total positions on the board
Reminder to stay within the parameters of our charter draft: minimum of five (5), maximum of nine (9)
Discussed adding an additional spot on the Board of Directors
Pros: an additional position could add representation of the community (i.e. the developers)
Cons: the total would increase to six (6) which can complicate voting by the Directors
The Directors can always decide later if they need additional expertise and if so, elect a qualified individual to join the Directors
Tentative Voting Process for the Director of the Implementer Community
Finalize the list of nominees who are specific to this community
Contact and receive an acceptance of that nomination
Establish a voting process
Making an announcement to the community about the nominees and provide a week or so to vote online or via e-mail
Open voting at the Implementers Meeting
Make the final announcement of the elected individual at the Implementers Meeting
Suggestions
Legal and accounting - have a board member with experience in these elements, preferably specific to the nonprofit sector
These are to be covered by the Treasurer as well
