SUPC Board 101: The Basics

​As a Board Member, your basic responsibilities are:

1. Attend the monthly Board meeting on 4th Tuesday at 6 pm. You are allowed a few excused absences for a year, but we ask that you let us know ahead of time. 

2. Attend one committee meeting a month, and be an active participant. Our committees vary in meeting times, but generally, they are mid-week at 6. You will need to select what committee(s) you would like to be signed up for by the October Board meeting. This helps us measure the minimum number of people we need at a meeting in order to vote (quorum). 

3. Be a great communicator! Read emails and respond to the ones that need a response. We like our Board to be well-informed and engaged. 

4. Connect your neighbors to SUPC. Chat with people about what's going on and listen to their concerns. Be observant. 

5. Ask questions if you don't understand something.

6. Never vote just to go along with others. Your opinion is important.

7. Read the Board Handbook and SUPC Bylaws.
​
Each month you will receive an important email the week before the board meeting. It will have information about the meeting, as well as other important announcements:
  • Read all info about the issues before the meeting so you are ready to discuss and possibly vote. 
  • RSVP if you will or will not be at the meeting. We track attendance, so this helps our Board Secretary keep accurate records.
  • Reach out to add issues to the agenda, if needed.
