Election time is upon us, and as the Board announced in the January Members’ Forum, we have prepared a new Ends Policy for your up or down vote.
Election time is upon us, and as the Board announced in the January Members’ Forum, we have prepared a new Ends Policy for your up or down vote.
During Black Star’s annual election in the fall, you’ll be asked to vote “Yes” or “No” on a new set of Ends policies. So we will discuss the Ends Committee’s proposed policy and answer questions about it during the June 25th Members’ Assembly meeting at 12pm at the pub. In the meantime, we’ve already had some great questions from committee members, directors, and our member-owners who came out to the recent Ends Committee Q & A and we wanted to bring you up to speed.
The Board has several committees which are either active or activating, and now’s the time to join up if you’re interested in deepening your commitment to Black Star and helping to lead our cooperative.
From time to time, it’s critical for the health of a co-op to review and revise its Bylaws to accommodate the changing needs of the organization. Due to the sunset provision of our Bylaws, requiring revision at least every five years, the Board convened a committee to review the Bylaws for any potential changes.
The spring Member’s Assembly meeting, held on Sunday, April 3rd, was an information-filled whirlwind of fun!
