Procedural and Process Reminders
Ms. Morris provided procedural reminders to the board members, noting that they would receive email reminders about the board procedures and responsibilities. She specifically emphasized the attendance policy: "every member of the board who shall be absent from four (4) meetings within one (1) year of the anniversary date of their appointment or reappointment, without proper medical reason for same, shall be deemed to have resigned their appointment."
The discussion then turned to Sunshine Law compliance, with Mr. Winn emphasizing transparency requirements, noting that board members cannot email each other about matters that may come before the board for the vote. All communications must go through staff, and members cannot "reply all" to emails to avoid violations. Ms. Morris further clarified that board members cannot discuss with each other anything that might reasonably be expected to come before the board for a vote, though they can speak with members of other boards and the council members who appointed them.
