How will the various committees be structured?
Committees will be structured in two different ways. “Board Committees” will be a combination of standing and ad hoc committees established by the Board, to assist it in carrying out its governance and oversight roles. Examples of these committees include Member Connect, Nominating, Audit/Investment and CEO Compensation, etc. All other committees will underake an advisory or assistance role in support of functions for which the CHA staff is responsible. This eliminates any possibility of an individual Board/Committee member inappropriately dominating or controlling any of the Association’s programs. The membership at large, through its Board of Directors, will ultimately decide what is needed, giving the membership a louder voice in the direction of CHA. Association staff will be more directly focused on customer service to the membership as a whole and not individual Board or committee members.
