6. Board Led Fundraising 15 minutes
Judy/Lynn/Paula
PURPOSE: To decide on a strategy for board led fundraising.
DECISION TO BE MADE/PROPOSED MOTIONS: To decide on how the board intends to fulfill the strategic plan mandate for the board to raise $6,000.
BACKGROUND: The strategic plan has a provision for board led fundraising in the amount of $6,000 each fiscal year. The fiscal year is two-thirds over and the board has not arrived at a plan or strategy to fulfill that mandate. A group was formed several months ago to arrive at a plan. One proposal is to have a special online fund raising event for a specific item. Part of the confusion is what the strategic plan provision means. In other words, what is “board led fundraising?
7. Staff Management Workgroup Update 5 minutes
Marc/Ani
PURPOSE: Provide the board with a monthly update regarding the progress of the Staff Management Workgroup
DECISION TO BE MADE/PROPOSED MOTIONS: Informational only
BACKGROUND: Last month the board created a board/staff workgroup to develop a recommendation for station management. The board appointed Marc, Ben, and Kate as the board representatives on the workgroup. As of now, the staff has not informed the board members regarding the staff members nominated to serve on the workgroup
8. Membership Drive Update 10 minutes
Ani/Zale
PURPOSE: Hopefully, the spring drive will be over by the board meeting. Although probably too soon to have any in-depth analysis of the fund drive and thoughts about new strategies, the board requests an update on the progress of the drive.
DECISION TO BE MADE/PROPOSED MOTIONS: Informational only.
BACKGROUND: The board has a legal duty to ensure that the KBOO foundation is fiscally solvent. As we finish up the last scheduled fund drive of the fiscal year, the board is interested in learning the results of the Spring Fund Drive.
BREAK-10 MINUTES
9. Chehalis Update 10 minutes
Conch/Marc
PURPOSE: To decide whether to file a six-month construction extension for the Chehalis frequency
PROPOSED MOTION: The board authorizes the staff to file a six-month construction waiver for the Chehalis frequency so long as the only costs are limited to staff time and any postage.
BACKGROUND: Last month, the board voted to not approve any further costs regarding the Chehalis frequency. The board decided against paying the attorney to file another six-month construction extension pending the outcome of the appeal. Since that time, it has been discovered that the staff is able to file the form directly to the FCC. It does not appear that a filing fee is required.
10. Membership Materials Committee 10 minutes
Judy & Ben
PURPOSE: To appoint three directors to work with the Membership Director to develop “membership materials” pursuant to the strategic plan.
DECISION TO BE MADE/PROPOSED MOTIONS: Appoint three directors to work with the Membership Director to develop “membership materials.”
BACKGROUND: One task of the strategic plan is the creation of membership materials by the membership director and three directors (see below).

11. Nominating Committee Update 15 minutes
Marc/Lyn/Paula/Keller
PURPOSE: To discuss several upcoming events and get input and assistance
DECISION TO BE MADE/PROPOSED MOTIONS: Informational only.
BACKGROUND: The Nominations Committee has two major events on the horizon. The first event is KBOO in the Park which will be in August at Peninsula Park. The event is a way to bring together the KBOO family for a fun outdoor event and also a place for an informal meet and greet for Board candidates.
The second event is the annual meeting, which will take place at People’s Food Cooperative Community Room on September 15. One thing the board needs to start thinking about is the annual report to the members.
Finally, the Nominating Committee will provide a brief election update.
