FRIENDS OF THE BLACK ROCK/HIGH ROCK/EMIGRANT TRAILS NCA
BOARD MEETING MINUTES
DECEMBER 4, 2010

The meeting was called to order at 3:48 pm. In attendance were Jeff Barker, David Book, Dave Cooper, Wayne DeGeere (by proxy), Dan O’Day, Will Roger and Debbie Smith. A quorum was present. Also in attendance was Matthew Ebert, Executive Director.

The Board reviewed the YTD expenses through 12/2 compared to the budget to date. With motion and second the Executive Directors report on the expenses was accepted.

Many questions were asked about the 2011 Budget, particularly about payroll taxes, recent penalties, and workers compensation insurance. The 2011 Budget was then adopted with motion and second.

With motion and second, the proposed new Board Member Cheryl Surface was approved to fill out the balance of Arlo Stockham’s term.

Two potential new Board Members were interviewed for the balance of Liz Margerum’s term. They were Sue Vaughn of Cold Springs and Seth Schrehzel of Oakland. With motion and second, Sue Vaughn was appointed to this position. As Dan O’Day may be resigning due to a job-related relocation sometime in 2011, Seth was advised to remain in touch.

A change in the name of the “Fundraising and Membership Committee” was proposed with the new name to be the “Development Committee.” With motion and second, this was approved.

All efforts are being made to get the FM radio station call sign of “KFBR.” It was felt that KDPW would align us with Burning Man and their Department of Public Works.

The next Board Meeting is scheduled for March 18, 2011

With motion and second, the meeting was adjourned at 5:08 pm

Respectfully submitted,

David E. Book
