The Policy Committee met in late February to go over a draft of Travel-specific policy which will deal with reimbursement of staff for EBC travel. Jasmine is looking into whether Pogo CarShare would suit our occasional in-town travel needs for moving cargo (bike parts, etc). A draft of the policy should be ready for April for Board review. | |||

* Discussion: | |||
** Need feedback on evaluation criteria for EBC programs (see report). | |||
** Jon: committee would apply criteria to bike rental program as a start and determine outcomes. Once we have outcomes, we would change whatever needs to be changed and then go forward applying criteria to other programs. | |||
** Anna: great criteria, but getting indicators/metrics for each criteria will be laborious. Which metrics (if any) do we currently track? Staff and volunteers can likely help gather info but may need more. | |||
Recommendation: divide and complete the tasks, we are in a position to move soon, but we may need more ambitious time lines to complete all our tasks. | |||
Perhaps the staff should conduct the actual program evaluation in the slow season. The board can set the criteria to evaluate the program(s). | |||
Our programs are not bleeding the budget. They will consume some of our non-financial resources, that time could be put towards higher returning activities. We need to focus more attention towards revenue generation. | |||
