CDA discusses audit/governance committees and staff training plan
Summary
The board discussed re-establishing governance and audit committees, whether alternates can chair committees, and plans for staff/board training; staff will verify rules and report back with a recommended committee structure.
Board members revisited the structure and timing of governance and audit committees, including whether an alternate (Tony) could chair a committee and how to schedule committee meetings (before regular board meetings or separately). Members noted committees have historically met twice a year and that committees provide a smaller forum for detailed discussion under Robert's Rules.
Don and Elizabeth said they plan to attend upcoming trainings and will provide written summaries and materials to the governance committee. The board asked staff to verify whether committee chairs must be full members and to return with proposed committee dates and a governance checklist.
"I had a thought today that maybe Tony might want to take one of those seats," the chair said while proposing committee assignments; staff will confirm procedural requirements and present a formal recommendation at the next meeting.
