Hey Danny.
Actually what I think doesn&#039;t mean a great deal in committee, I preside over the committee. I set it up that way.
Everything is a committee decision. I did do some ground work before taking the committee, to allow it to function as a committee and not as an extension of the board, as was done before. Anything, and everything put in front of the committee will be taken apart, and analyzed to see how it will effect anything else, then some sort of agreement is hammered out. I can set an agenda, that has been set, and it is loose enough to be workable. I can indefinately postpone (table) issues, which I refrain from, I prefer to deal with them, unless it is clearly detrimental to do otherwise. Other than that I am pretty well limited. What I can&#039;t do is to say I want something and that is the way it is. That is clearly out of order.
What I did not do, which was an option open to me, was to form a one man committee, and have my suggestions put on the ballot.
I feel all committees should have at least 2 members other than the chair. So far I haven&#039;t been able to convince the committee to incorporate this requirement into the bylaws.
But, that is not my highest priority. Going into this duty, I set 2 priorities, one was to elect directors, the other was to find a fair way to conduct nominations. Both agendas have cleared committee. So, I consider anything else beneficial that is accomplished to be gravy.
Have a good day, and take care!!!
