Board discussed frequency of meetings. Boden stated WSIA is obligated to meet once a year. If they choose to meet more than that, it would be a Board decision. Schlapp suggested having an annual business meeting to discuss updates and review financials, with updates to the Board as necessary. Directors discussed meeting once a year. Mitchell recognized that day-to-day decisions needed to be made quickly and often, and Board meeting not necessary for those. Consensus reached to discuss schedule of board meetings at the next annual meeting.
