What Happens During a Board Meeting?
The meeting starts promptly at 6:00pm. There is always an official agenda, and a large portion of the time is reserved for the Board's mandatory business. At some point during each meeting, there is time set aside for introductions, committee reports, and an opportunity for owner or staff comments. When the meeting is officially called to order, the Board follows Robert’s Rules of Order to conduct its business. The sequence of the agenda is subject to change based on the focus of the meeting, and occasionally special format meetings are held or outside facilitators are used. Generally, most of the time is reserved for updates from our General Manager and conversations about our finances and operations, followed by time reserved for board business. If there is sensitive or confidential information to address, the Board may conduct a private Executive Session.
