Fellow HHSC'rs
Below are questions that I've complied for our training session next Saturday.
I tried to maintain the essence of the questions while reducing duplication
among similar questions asked by multiple people. These will be forwarded to
our instructor today.
This is also another plug for the training. So far I've received replies from
13 members other than board members who plan to attend. If this list of
questions inspires more questions out of you, please reply. Also, if my
persistence is convincing you to attend, please send me an email by Wednesday.
Thanks,
Jim

Other Financial Questions
15. How should we account for the Junior Organization's finances since
they use HHSC's tax exemption?
16. Do we have to (or should we) have an annual financial audit if we do
not meet the legal requirement to do so?
17. Currently the aircraft fleet is maintained on the books at market
value. This results in a qualified opinion from our auditors since we do not
depreciate them. Should we be doing something different with asset
depreciation?
Conflicts of Interest
18. Some board members and club members also hold positions as HHSC
employees, licensing/inspection officials and vendors. How should the
organization manage these three types of conflicts of interest?
19. Can anyone who is a board member (or even HHSC member) perform work
for HHSC for compensation as long as the potential conflict of interest is
known and understood by all board members and as long as we have some assurance
that the price is fair?
20. Should members of these three groups be restricted from serving as
board members?
21. What are "best practices" for managing conflicts of interest?
Other Questions
1. Suggested procedures for addressing, reporting and maintaining
anonymity to received written grievance reports.
2. When does liability for actions as board members cease? Upon
resignation from the board or do decisions made while I was a board member
follow me forever?
