• Transparent Executive Session Amendment

Introduced by Wolf, Oman, Frey

Amendment: Allow the board to publish notes from executive session (private decision-making post-eboard meeting)

Executive session is a private session comprised only of executive board members, which can be called by the board in order to make decisions while not in the presence of those who may be affected by these decisions.

Oman: we are responsible to members, they deserve to know what happens in executive session

Hines: Constitutional review; Oman, Wolf: executive session mentioned only once.

- Giving away executive session information is an impeachable offense.

Frey: This does not eliminate the purpose of executive session, it merely allows for disclosure of executive session notes at a later date. It’s necessary for fully informing members… members deserve our honesty

Hines, concurrence by Lofquist, Sadlosky and Meyer: we need private decision-making, non-disclosure of full decision details

Oman: How are we going to be held accountable by members?

Frey: this organization is too top-down.

Wolf: we are primarily responsible to members, not press;

Noel: PR perspective could lead to public divisiveness

Executive Session Transparency Vote:

In Favor: Oman, Frey, Hansen, Wolf

Against: Noel, Hines, Lofquist, Meyer, Fitzsimmons

Motion fails 5-4
