Elections: on July 5, 2006 we will elect a president to replace Art Shenker. Meera Kamegai is the Acting President. Both Craig Gorden and Bat-Sheva Tadmor have been nominated for a Board position. Craig Gorden has also been nominated to fill the position of First Vice President on the Executive Committee. Susan Rhodes, our Protocol advisor, will determine the procedures to be followed for the election. 2. Board meetings: Meera has asked Susan Rhodes to be the Sergeant-at-Arms during Board Meetings. Board meetings should be conducted in a more business?like manner. Each Center, the Religious School, Sisterhood, and Maintenance department is expected to provide detailed report. Until a Treasurer is elected, someone with knowledge of accounting should present the financial data for the Temple. 3. Financial matters: Our accounting system is a mess! There are no written protocols, no financial controls, no reconciliation of existing accounts, etc. Larry Bemis was ill for the past few weeks and has not responded to my calls. We have hired the firm of Lynda Keeton CPA, LLC, See the agreement for more details. Sue Blattner, who has a great deal o f managerial experience, is coordinating the effort. The goal is to manage the financial affairs of Temple Beth Am professionally. Lynda Keeton-Cardno will make a presentation. 4. Responsibilities of the Board Members: Beside the duties of the Board described in the by-laws, some additional responsibilities can be approved by the Executive Committee. Every Standing Committee is under a Vice President. The Committee Chair reports to the Vice President and the Vice-President is responsible for his/her committees accomplishing their goals.
