[Durham INC] Board Meeting Wednesday Night, January 13

[theocean1 at aol.com]

Brett
 
What you missed tonight was actually an INC Board meeting, not a regular  
delegate meeting.
INC's new President, Tom Miller (who also served as INC's first President  
26 years ago) is particularly dedicated to maintaining our 4th Tues meeting  
tradition.
 
Stay tuned for a location announcement.

Happy  New Year to all.

I was the alternate delegate for Old West Durham last  year and am planning 
on representing the neighborhood for the coming year on  INC.

I would have liked to attend tonight's meeting but because of a  previous 
commitment I wasn't able to make it.  Is the idea now to move  the regular 
meeting to Wednesday nights?  Based on conversations last  year I had assumed 
the schedule would remain the same (4th Tuesday of the  Month).

thanks,
bww

The INC Board will meet  Wednesday night at 7:00 p.m. at Andrea and Bill 
Andersons’ home at 113 W.  Markham Avenue in the Duke Park neighborhood.  
Thanks to Bill and  Andrea for hosting our meeting. 
I would like for all new Board  members to attend.  These are, in addition 
to me, Vice President, Scott  Carter; Treasurer, Moe Rivera; Newsletter 
Editor (Communications) Chairman,  Colin Crossman; Immediate Past President, 
Craigie Sanders, and Board  members, Fred Foster and Erin Kennedy. 
If at all possible, I would also  like for last year’s members to attend as 
well.  These are Ken Gasch,  Leslie Page, Rosemarie Kitchen, David Harris 
and Myers  Sugg. 
Your presence will help us make  the transition to the new year. 
I would like to use this meeting  to go over the resolutions we adopted 
over the last year or so and to  consider the resolution that is pending, 
Bylaws changes.  The  resolutions are neatly recorded on the INC website.  As you 
read the  resolutions, consider what we can do to give effect to the 
resolutions we  have adopted and what we should do to bring consideration of the 
bylaws  resolution to closure. 
I also want to discuss with you  the idea of having all member 
neighborhoods complete a simple application  form to establish their credentials and the 
credentials of their  delegates.  This was a practice of INC distant past 
and it is an idea I  broached during our bylaws debate.  I will have copies 
of the sample  form I passed out at the end of last year to assist us with 
our  consideration of this possibility. 
There are a couple of  housekeeping matters that we should discuss (money 
and recruiting) and  probably there are other matters that I am ignorant of 
which we should take  up.  Those of you with experience please let us know 
what we should add  to our agenda. 
News: 
Craigie and I met today with  Bertha Johnson of the city manager’s office.  
The purpose was to  discuss the program and format of a “Neighborhood 
Coffee with  Council.” 
This is a wonderful idea that  Craigie and Ms. Johnson hatched at the end 
of last year.  We are  looking at holding this event on the last Saturday of 
February.  We’ll  fill you in on Wednesday.  Kudos to Craigie for this  one. 
I hope you have had a warm and  happy holiday and that the holiday spirit 
will last you all the year  through. 
Please respond to this email so  we’ll know how many to expect. New Board 
members, please include the full  text of your email address so we can update 
the board  list. 
I will provide an appropriate  refreshment to kick off this new INC year. 
Best wishes to  all. 
Tom  Miller
