- 3/7/24 (BoD meeting, exec session)
- [re: Leadership Code of Conduct and Disciplinary Committee formation]Heather motioned to amend/restructure the Code of Conduct due to an incident involving a member of senior leadership at the 2/24/24 game. The order we wrote things in is very murky. It talks about the things that will happen, but not what the process is to enact the consequences of any actions that violate the CoC. Heather reorganized the disciplinary section so that is clear what steps need to be taken. Changes: “Upon a notice of a violation of the code of conduct the board of directors will create a disciplinary committee. The committee will consist of 5 members including one current board member, one former board member and three dues paying members. The committee will not be a standing committee and investigations and sanctions will be managed on a case-by-case as follows…” Chris seconded. Discussions were had about how the committee members would be chosen since it was never defined. Allison suggested using an online randomizer to gather a pool of members to contact to see if they would be willing to serve on the committee & go down the list until we get three members that say yes.
Ongoing discussions to be had on the process to pick the members. And there will be a formal vote on Slack to finalize the restructuring of the CoC. - [re: ticket release dates]Kourtney motioned that we release tickets two months at a time up until the All-Star Game & then release the back end of the season. Brad seconded. (8 yes/0 no), motion passes.
