The Board of Directors manages the association. It makes all important decisions for the organization, including establishment of the annual budget and approval of capital projects.
There is an Executive Committee consisting of the President, two Vice Presidents, Secretary, Treasurer, and up to four members of the Board of Directors nominated by the President and ratified by the Board. The Executive Committee handles routine matters of administering the association, but their decisions—if not within the purview of a standing, already-approved vote—are subject to ratification by the Board. An example here would be spending decisions that fall within the approved annual budget; if spending would be outside the approved budget, this would have to be presented to the Board.
The Board of Directors is comprised of 21 elected members, plus the President, two Vice Presidents, Secretary, Treasurer, and the Executive Director. There are three classes of Board members based upon their elected terms: Class I is a one-year term, Class II is a two-year term, and Class III a three-year term. The Board will consist of as nearly equal numbers of Classes as feasible. Members of the Board are not personally liable for any debts, liabilities, or obligations of the association.
