Policy No. 1114

Board of Directors

BOARD MEMBER RESIGNATION

Upon receipt of a director's written resignation, the board shall consider the resignation at its next regularly scheduled meeting. The board shall then accept the resignation by formal action and declare the board position vacant unless the resignation is withdrawn any time prior to the board's action.

The Board believes that any citizen who files for and seeks election to the Board should do so with full knowledge of and appreciation for the investment in time, effort, and dedication expected of all Board members, and that the citizen’s intent to serve reflects his or her intention to serve a full term of office.

If, for reasons of health, change in domicile, or any other reason, a member does decide to terminate service, the Board requests earliest possible notification of intent to resign so that the Board may plan appropriately for the continuity of the Board business.
