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). | |||

'''Action Item: Strategic Planning''' committee to report back to the board with a timeline and a proposal of how we, as a committee, can bring more value to the organization. | |||
