Yes, I made that request, at the beginning of our first board meeting,
to get us started off.
Reference.com says...
"Minutes should reflect what happened in a meeting; they are not
intended to be a verbatim recounting of what each person said."
So, yes, the above is a vague statement, as I am sure was the
intention. It comes down to how we interpret such a statement.
We will all settle in to a routine with the meeting process. We made
tweaks to the meeting minutes format on Monday, and may make more
tweaks as we go forward. But for now I suggest asking questions in
this thread to fill in any gaps...as you did.
Contact list: Mandee reached out to all members in order to verify the
membership information we have on file is accurate. She sent a well
formatted document to each member via email, and asked for
confirmation or changes.
Old docs: Mrs. Scott had some documents from a WECA event that fell on
a anniversary year, and such. In those documents she has a copy of the
mission statement for WECA. I had asked for a copy of the mission
statement.
I hope that helps.

I was originally requested not to write everything out and to keep it clean***
and high level, therefore I did not go into that type of detail with the
minutes. I assumed since each meeting we have we go over the minutes from
the previous meeting that these types of questions would be asked and
answered then?

Hi, Gang
A few things... (apologies to all for not being at the mtg...extenuating
circumstances...)
1. secretary's report - update on current member contact list
What was the update? If an update is given at the mtg, I would suggest
that a summary of the update be included in the minutes. This will
provide
the important information to the reader and have a more
accurate/informative record of the mtg.
2. JS to send old documents with mission statement...
What are the "old docs...)?
3. a. Other committees i. Agreed to let the
general members choose a chair person to bring all request and
suggestions
to the board.
I think I understand the intent of this position. So as not to muddy the
waters, I would suggest the person be called a "member or membership
representative/liaison, or member(ship) liaison to the board...or some
such
title....
