I cannot find it in any of the Board minutes. As a prior sitting board member, I remember that many things are done with only approval by the President, or a committee head. Now the Executive Committee seems to do a lot, but not everything is approved by the entire board. I never saw anything about hiring an attorney to work with the Hunte matter, or even what Hunte's settlement was, or that it was or was not approved. I hear it was, but only because Lew worked it out. He didn't wait for any approval, and that seemed to work. We do owe him a vote of thanks instead of worrying about approval prior to working it out.
