=== 2023 Board and Committees ===
=== Conflict of Interest Documentation (10 min)===
==== Executive Committee ====
*
* Discussion notes:
** Conflict of interest gets significantly easier when the person with the conflict volunteers the potential conflict, and we don’t have to go through the process of determining if there is a conflict.
** Conflicts of interest must be documented in minutes
** Kelly has a conflict of interest with a potential donor agreement she has offered to enter into with Bike Edmonton, as she would be party to a contract.
 
* You can present the item and take questions, but discussion and voting takes place without conflict person
* Kelly declared a conflict of interest with regard to her offer to donate funds to Bike Edmonton
* Goverance Committee to look at conflicts of interest including non-financial conflicts of interest
* Ceileigh Cunningham related to Jesse Cunningham
* Matthew Hoyt related to Robin Wallsten-McElhatton
* Alexandra Stout is roommate and friend with Chris Chan
 
 
=== Budget - Timeline and Path to Approval (15 min)===
*
* Discussion notes:
** As per our bylaws we can:
*** Can develop budget and present at Special General Meeting again
*** Can have new board and ED approve new budget before presenting to membership at SGM
** We need to talk with staff about budget and have a follow up about it with them too (see previous minutes)
 
* We do not have an approved budget
* How can we get one? Two ways:
* New Board and ED can approve budget prior to presented at General Meeting
* Approved at special general meeting
* Need input from staff, then choice 1, then meet with members
* Board presents motion to membership to approve budget, signaling our intent to membership.
* Draft budget by end of January
* Plan: Finance Committee presents draft budget to special Board meeting near end of January, approve draft budget and call a special meeting of membership by end of February.
 
 
=== Board Vacancy (10 min) ===
*
*Discussion Notes:
** Option 1 - leave vacant
** Option 2 - reach out to defeated candidates and elect to 1 year term at board meeting
** Option 3 - Open call for nominations and board election for full term ending November 2024, may be combined with special meeting on budget

==== Committees ====
=== Holiday Shop Closure (10 min) ===
HR Committee
* Discussion Notes:
**Pay for staff during closure to be discussed in camera
 
*Recommended by Greg  to close on Friday December 23 and reopen January 3, 2023. Board agrees. Motion not necessary - is an operational issue.
 
=== Staff involvement at board meetings (10 min) ===
*
*Discussion Notes:
**Staff would like to attend, but board meetings happen during shop hours
**staff would like opportunity to provide input, only worth attending if can provide input (draft agenda sent to staff ahead of board meeting to help determine if there are items they'd like to provide input on)
 
*Staff would like to attend but board meeting hours conflict with shop hours
*Staff should feel comfortable approaching either the ED or any Board Member
*Monday 1700-2100 for shop hours for South Shop; could close shop as another option. To avoid shop conflict could have Friday Board meeting. Or Sunday after 1700.
*Lots of value to having staff at meeting; having our shops open is valuable to our membership. Could have experienced volunteers cover for shop managers - during summer it’s all hands on deck so managers may not be able to attend.
 
 
=== Fundraising committee (5 min) ===
*
*Discussion Notes:
** Grants and donations could fall under the purview of the Finance Committee
** the kind of person who likes to work on grants and donation appeals is different from the person who likes to crunch numbers for a finance committee
** There are a number of significant deadlines coming up for grants
** open to the idea that you think the ED is solely responsible to work on grants, etc
 
*Proposed by Greg to have a fundraising committee. Or Greg is comfortable with applying to grants.
*Charlotte and Alexandra are keen to be on a fundraising committee.
*Greg could chair the committee and it's not a committee of the Board. He is the person accountable for the grant writing getting done on time. Or it could be called a Task Force or something else (too bad Space Force is taken already). Greg can chair and others are volunteers on the committee, whether the volunteers be awesome board members or awesome Bike Edmonton members.
*All interested can follow up with Greg.
 
=== Wiki Access (5 min) ===
*
* Discussion notes:
** in the past, all of the board had wiki access which allowed people to edit the wiki (such as posting things regarding committees, allowing rotating minute takers, fixing typos in the agenda, etc), but also follow pages and subscribe to notifications of changes. This would also provide multiple back ups in case someone leaves the board, or is unavailable for any reason.
 
*No motion necessary; all board members will have access
 
=== Orientation Document (5 min) ===
*
* Discussion Notes:
** [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IXwLIPH41l1SPqY44BjfUF1I8ZD8ouFA8bJGGOOpHf8/edit#/ orientation document]

== Optional Items Pending Time ==
 
Skipped to save time.
 
=== Woman Owned Business on Google (10 min) ===
*
* Discussion notes:
** North shop listed as "woman owned" on Google, south shop is not
** Can we justify being listed as "woman owned"?
** if so, write document with justification in case someone checks
** ensure both shop listings consistent
 
=== Potential Donor Agreement (15 min) ===
*
* Discussion Notes:
** A $15,000 donation has been proposed, with condtions
** Conditions:
*** Bike Edmonton gets a quote from a CPA to complete an audit
*** Donor will provide the funds for the audit, which will be restricted to use for the audit (if the audit is cheaper than the quote, those funds can become unrestricted following the audit)
*** Following an audit by a CPA, and an approved organization budget, donor will provide the balance of the $15,000, which will be unrestricted.
** Optional Conditions:
***Donor will participate in a larger fundraising campaign, such as a matching campaign, or other fundraising campaign which leverages above donation amount to get more donations from other donors. Bike Edmonton to determine details of fundraising campaign, and include in donor agreement.
