____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ PUBLIC COUNSEL | COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT | FORM OF MINUTES | 2017 Annotated Sample of Minutes, Consents, and Board Resolutions California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation About This Form: Public Counsel’s Community Development Project has designed these annotated sample minutes, consents, and board resolutions to serve as a tool for non-membership California nonprofit public benefit corporations and pro bono attorneys who represent them. Exercise of Board Authority and Resolutions Subject to the provisions of its articles of incorporation, California Nonprofit Corporation Law and any other applicable laws, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation’s business and affairs are managed, and all corporate powers are exercised, by or under the direction of its board of directors (sometimes referred to as “the board”). The board may delegate its management authority to any person or persons, management company, or committee, provided that, ultimately, the activities and affairs of the Corporation are managed and all corporate powers are exercised under the direction of the board.i A resolution is the written documentation of a binding decision regarding the affairs of a corporation made by its board of directors or committee, either at a meeting or through unanimous written consent. This publication provides sample resolutions for common board actions. Corporate Minutes Minutes are the official record of the proceedings of a board or a committee meeting. Every California nonprofit corporation is required to maintain minutes of its board and committee proceedings either in written hardcopy or another format that can be converted into “clearly legible tangible form” (e.g., as an electronic data file).ii Board meeting minutes are typically drafted by or under the supervision of the corporation’s secretary, and committee meeting minutes are typically drafted by or under the supervision of the committee chair or secretary.

Simplified Parliamentary Procedure
Extension to Communities Simpliﬁ ed Parliamentary Procedure 2 • Iowa State University Extension Introduction Effective Meetings — Simpliﬁ ed Parliamentary Procedure “We must learn to run a meeting without victimizing the audience; but more impor- tantly, without being victimized by individuals who are armed with parliamentary procedure and a personal agenda.” — www.calweb.com/~laredo/parlproc.htm Parliamentary procedure. Sound complicated? Controlling? Boring? Intimidating? Why do we need to know all those rules for conducting a meeting? Why can’t we just run the meetings however we want to? Who cares if we follow parliamentary procedure? How many times have you attended a meeting that ran on and on and didn’t accomplish anything? The meeting jumps from one topic to another without deciding on anything. Group members disrupt the meeting with their own personal agendas. Arguments erupt. A few people make all the decisions and ignore everyone else’s opinions. Everyone leaves the meeting feeling frustrated. Sound familiar? Then a little parliamentary procedure may just be the thing to turn your unproductive, frustrating meetings into a thing of beauty — or at least make them more enjoyable and productive. What is Parliamentary Procedure? Parliamentary procedure is a set of well proven rules designed to move business along in a meeting while maintaining order and controlling the communications process. Its purpose is to help groups accomplish their tasks through an orderly, democratic process. Parliamentary procedure is not intended to inhibit a meeting with unnecessary rules or to prevent people from expressing their opinions. It is intended to facilitate the smooth func- tioning of the meeting and promote cooperation and harmony among members.

Bedh Public Participation at School Committee Meetings
BEDH PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AT SCHOOL COMMITTEE MEETINGS A School Committee Meeting is a meeting of a government body at which members of the body deliberate over public business. We welcome the attendance of members of the school district community to view your School Committee as it conducts its regular business meeting. Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 39 Section 23C governs public participation at open meetings of municipal government bodies. Chapter 39: Section 23C Regulation of participation by public in open meetings Section 23C. No person shall address a public meeting of a governmental body without permission of the presiding officer at such meeting and all persons shall, at the request of such presiding officer, be silent. If, after warning from the presiding officer, a person persists in disorderly behavior, said officer may order him to withdraw from the meeting, and, if he does not withdraw, may order a constable or any other person to remove him and confine him in some convenient place until the meeting is adjourned. The School Committee roles and responsibilities as defined in MA General Law focus on policy development, budget adoption, and employment of key district administration with some other final decision making authority assigned by law to the principals and/or the Superintendent. Problem resolution is generally handled most effectively and efficiently at the lowest level possible and therefore the School Committee has adopted policies KE, KEB, KEB-R, and KEC as Public Complaint policies and procedures. The School Committee believes that the school district community should have an opportunity to comment to the Committee on issues that affect the school district and are within the scope of the Committee’s responsibilities.

Meeting Management for Beginners
Meeting Management for Beginners by Jason Fossum ! Former MSCSA Director of Government Relations Preface I remember walking through the somewhat cluttered hallways of that student union, not noticing much, except perhaps the occasional passerby. I made my way through to the cafeteria of the union, and as I sat at one of the squared tables that was placed near the walkway, I noticed a glass office that had in huge dark blue let- ters the words STUDENT SENATE plastered across the length of the glass. I stared for a moment into that office and thought back to my high school days and assumed that this must be the college version of student council. I was certain this would be the place where important decisions such as the cost of a bottle of pop in the machine, the color of the student senate shirt, and the catchy phrase and logo that would be this year’s attempt at getting students to care about what was going on around them. It wasn’t until much later in my college experience that I would learn what re- ally happened in that office, and more importantly, within the institution of student government on campuses. From that day, my freshmen year in school, until the night during my third year when I was encouraged to join the senate by a friend and class- mate in a Political "eory class, I was certain that I knew all I needed to know about what happened on my college campus. I attended my first student senate meeting with very low expectations, similar to the one time I participated in a student council meeting in high school.

Suggestions for Organizing an Effective Committee of the Whole for Local Government Julie Pioch, PRP Michigan State University Extension Updated October 2013
Suggestions for Organizing an Effective Committee of the Whole for local Government Julie Pioch, PRP Michigan State University Extension Updated October 2013 A committee is typically a subset (one or more people) of a board assigned by appointment to investigate certain matters of importance to the government unit. A committee does not carry with it the powers of the entire board, but can only carry out the functions that are prescribed to them by the board. According to Roberts Rules of Order, Newly Revised, (11th edition), “An assembly can also designate all of its members present to act as a committee, which is called a committee of the whole and is distinguished from an ordinary committee” (p. 489 ll. 30-33). A committee of the whole is different than a regular committee because it includes all of the members of a board. It is like an ordinary committee in that the only authority a committee of the whole has is that which is assigned to it by the board. The purpose of such a committee is to allow all of the members of a board an opportunity to engage in informal discussion on ideas and proposals which may eventually result in a recommendation to the board. A Committee of the whole is used primarily by legislative bodies. Robert’s Rules of Order, Newly Revised (RONR) provides a description of how a large board may use a committee of the whole as an opportunity for informal discussion during a meeting (RONR (11ed.), pp 529 – 542). In practice, committees of the whole have differed from RONR and have taken the form of a standing committee, for which boards have developed a regular schedule of meetings, order of business and committee rules of order.
