Operating Agreement #4
-
Meetings of the Board
-
We will consistently abide by our formal meeting processes so that all persons are treated fairly and equally.
We understand that Board meetings are not open-forum meetings. We will keep this in mind as we conduct our meetings, allowing the public to provide input at the time allotted on the agenda to ensure the multiple voices of the community inform Board deliberations. We will review our policies relating to Board meeting management (e.g., time limits on input from members of the public), revising or re-affirming them as appropriate.
The only authority to direct action rests with the full Board sitting at the Board table during a duly called open meeting. A majority vote sets such direction. When a majority of the Board, sitting in a formal meeting, requests action, it should be made relative to the intended results, not the methods used to achieve those results.
Each Board member respects the right of the other members to vote “no” on an issue. On important matters, Board members are encouraged to explain the reasons for a “no” vote either during deliberation or before casting the vote.
