From Mlongreene2 at aol.com Sun Dec 2 17:36:19 2007 From: Mlongreene2 at aol.com (Mlongreene2 at aol.com) Date: Sun, 2 Dec 2007 17:36:19 EST Subject: [yrhcworking] Meeting YRHC Tuesday, Dec. 4 - 7PM - Learning Center Message-ID: Hello All, We have not sent out minutes of the November Meeting as we did not have a quorum and postponed the meeting. I do not know if Wed. nites will continue to work as there were so many meetings at the same time we were scheduled to meet. Several members have requested a meeting to get up to speed on issues before our regular one this month so we will see how this Tuesday works. I am attaching the minutes of the previous meeting as well as the agenda for that last meeting as a starting point, but will leave as much time as needed for issues you wish to cover. I am also attaching DRAFT bylaws for our committee for you to consider - add, delete, whatever you think to govern the way meetings and procedures are handled. In the future, it would be good if the 7 voting YRHC members would let me know as far in advance if they are NOT able to make the meeting, so we can reschedule ahead of time if a quorum is not available to meet. Thanks, Mark **************************************Check out AOL's list of 2007's hottest products.

I look forward to being able to discuss this at the Wed. YRHASC meeting and have requested that it be an agenda item. At the suggestion of a YRHASC member (and in response to a question by another YRHASC member) , I am compiling a list of folks involved in this endeavor over the past few years. I will e-mail it later and/or bring it to the meeting Wed.

They are just in the proposal stage but in my opinion seem to run counter to some of our basic proposals and may need clarification. It is at 6:30 at Town Hall. I believe there will also be a continued discussion about what input the YRHASC wants from YRHC participants.

From: JudyP Subject: some thoughts on our last meeting Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2007 09:38:13 -0500 Size: 10227 URL: From Mlongreene2 at aol.com Thu Dec 20 10:14:58 2007 From: Mlongreene2 at aol.com (Mlongreene2 at aol.com) Date: Thu, 20 Dec 2007 10:14:58 EST Subject: [yrhcworking] Public right to know stuff and YRHC Dec.18 Draft Minutes Message-ID: Hi All, Attached are Draft minutes from the Tues. YRHC meeting. Also the following thoughts on what is public in our communications and meetings: The letter of the law in Maine about meetings, discussions, and perhaps e-mails as I interpret it is so strong that if followed to the "T", almost nobody could talk to anybody about anything and little could ever get done except in a properly posted meeting in a public place. Let us continue to reflect on how we do our work and get it as reasonably close to open and legal as we can. I have been as guilty as others in trying to move ahead sometimes without thinking about what is the proper procedure. It is endlessly challenging no matter how long you have done it. We are all trying to do good stuff for others with little spare common time to do. I have modified the following quote I recently received on this issue: A reminder: a nonprofit's (we all - YRHC and YRHASC operate under the nonprofit YRHCorp as well as under the Town of Long Island) stakeholders are the public in which it serves. Directors are answerable to the public, and are supposed to represent the public when addressing the association. All documents are to be open to the public, and are actually required by law to be presented to the public within a timely manner upon request. Emails are included as a public document as of the whole Enron debacle (previously they were considered private). Whether an email is requested or not, it is still a public document because it was a communication to the association from a board member. Feel free to get work done with e-mails, but be aware they are not necessarily private communication. I expect that anything I do by e-mail (for public work) is open to be shared if needed or wanted. Other interpretations are more than welcome. We grappled long and hard in the beginning of the Town with variations of these issues. I think our intent to continue to strive to make it work properly is all anyone can ask.
