| About The Board of
Directors: |
|
| |
|
The Board of Directors conducts
the business of Opportunities, and is comprised of the following three sectors of
representation, consistent with Federal statute:
- Individuals who are elected public officials, or their
representatives. Elected public officials serve on the Board and in the
elected public officials sector only so long as they hold elective office.
In addition, representatives of this sector must reside in Lewis County at
the time of their election and throughout their term on the Board.
-
Individuals representing persons
of low income who reside in Lewis County. An interested individual
must meet income eligibility criteria, and as a prospective nominee, must
be chosen from a slate of candidates through an election process (with
ballots available at the main office of Opportunities at 8265 State Rte.
812, New Bremen).
-
Individuals representing the
private sector, who represent other significant community interests such
as human services, charity, volunteers, education, industry, labor,
faith-based organizations, and any significant minority groups. In
addition, individual members of the community who are sympathetic to the
mission of Opportunities may also be considered. All representatives
from this sector must be residents of Lewis County.
All nominees are presented to the Board of Directors
through the Board's nominating committee, with any resultant Board
membership approved via a Board resolution. Members of the Board serve a term of 3 years and may be
re-appointed or re-elected to consecutive terms. |
