Don't know him, but Tracy says he's OK. Good enough for me.
That's a yea.

I've met Andy a few times -- he is a Captain in the Asheville Fire Department -- and I can say unequivocally that he will be an asset to the Board. He hosted (and paid for out of pocket) a great picnic in October 2008 that many NCWW and WNCWA members attended. He is a good person and we should support his involvement. His full name is Andy Henderson and he lives within a few miles of me in Mills River.
I concur with Andy if he has accepted. :thumbs_up:thumbs_up

I just had a terrible thought -- Andy does not show up in his profile as a Corporate Member and if he is not one, he is not eligible to be on the Board.
Tracy, please check his status and see what is missing. It may be as simply as selecting the opt in option. Thanks!
We could ask him to visit more frequently, or we ould make an exxception since his frequency will reach the required level as soon as we ask him to join the Board. What say all of you?
I took a stab at figuring out how many days in a row he would have to log in before he reached a visit frequency of 3, but unfortunately, my math skills are not quite that good anymore. :swoon: I don't think it would take long though. :eusa_thin
Do our by-laws allow for us making an exception? I really want Andy on the BoD but we have to do this properly.
I do not think we have a forced date we must fill the position by. Could we give him access to the BoD forums and allow him to observe/consult until he meets the requirement. Again there is nothing I saw in the by-laws that stated that only active BoD can view/post in the BoD fourm. He could not vote but he could pretty much functions as a BoD member. Especially since his role is role on the BoD has a lot of behind the scenes activity. Then once he hit the 3.0 we make a formal announcement and he "officially" joins the BoD.

The ByLaws require that all Directors must be Members (i.e., a Corporate Member) to be elected. Because of Steve's resignation, a unanimous vote of the remaining Board Members is required. I would recommend we communicate with Andy to log in daily until his eligibility is confirmed and then we vote on having him join the Board. Let us keep things clean and not give him extraordinary priviledges until he qualifies. In the interim, we have agreed to a change for Tracy to become the new Webmaster and as Exec VP, I am de facto Development Director until a a replacement Director is elected.
Good plan. I agree.

I sent Andy an email.
