Discussion
Pursuant to the Board’s Policy on Policies, the Board routinely reviews all Board policies as part of its policy management. Under the Board’s approved review schedule, the Board may now consider review of the Membership List Policy. The purpose of this policy is to maintain and increase the vigor of the Cooperative’s democratic Member control, consistent with Cooperative principles by making Member names and Contact Information available to the membership. The Board establishes this Membership List Policy (“Policy”) to balance the need for transparency and democratic control with the privacy rights of its Members by allowing the limited distribution of Membership Lists.
Body
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS that pursuant to its regular review of Board policies, the Board has reviewed and adopts the Membership List Policy, with such changes, if any, as were approved by the Board; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Chief Executive Officer, or designee, are hereby authorized to take all such action as may be necessary to implement this resolution.
