Meeting was called to order by Chair Chris Drummond at 5:05 p.m.

 

The first item of the agenda was to review the draft of three letters to be used for applicants for Council Member positions:

·         Initial letter to applicant;

·         Leadership Committee members will be in applicant’s home area and able to interview them;

·         Leadership Committee members wish to interview applicant to fill current council vacancy.

 

The letters were reviewed and a few members shared information they wished to add to the letters. After discussion, all members decided that all three letters should indicate that FDDC will pay interview travel costs and include a reference to FDDC by-laws section listing the detailed structure of council membership. The members also asked that the letters for the interview include the dates and location of the Council meeting for the interview. Finally, it was decided that all applications will be held for a period of 5 years. Dennie will make the changes to the letters and e-mail them to the members for approval. Members will e-mail Chris Drummond with their approval or additional changes needed.

                       

The members next reviewed the application of Stacey Hoaglund for Council membership. This review was held from the June Council meeting. The members voted to approve Ms. Hoaglund for a face-to-face interview. As soon as the initial applicant letter is approved, Ms. Hoaglund will be sent a copy of the letter.

 

The call was adjourned at 5.28 p.m.
