take the minutes in Heather’s absence. Dan introduced landlord family members Patsy and David Dalton. They expressed concern about KOPN being in arrears for the rent, specifically for October and November. They want to work with us but reiterated that we can’t move to a new location prior to the lease expiring unless we find another prospective tenant.
October minutes corrected to say the appeal letter will go out as part of the pledge drive, not after it. Minutes approved. David said one of the CPB requirements is that we post the minutes to our web site.
FINANCIAL REPORT presented by John. Net income for October was -$3,339.43. Accounts payable is $49,948.89. It was pointed out that the accounts payable statement doesn’t reflect the fact that we are two months behind on our rent.
GENERAL MANAGER’S REPORT by David. Appeal email has gone out. Regular mail appeal letter depends on getting the
funds needed to do the mailing. He ran through the upcoming activities, outreach efforts, and staff report.
CPB compliance requirements necessary before submitting requests include the need to designate somebody to decide if the meeting should be closed. MOTION PASSED designating the board president to be responsible for documenting the reasons for any closed meetings; also required to post Community Advisory Board information on the web site. Dan will contact this Board. Dave will take care of getting the minutes posted.
