Election Season
September 22, 2012 in Administrative
It’s that time of year again – time to get a few good people to nominate themselves for leadership so we can get the vote out.
Most of our incumbents from 2011 will be continuing in their positions, but we’re looking for new leaders for two positions, our Maintenance Committee Chair and our Fundraising Chair.
Maintenance & Monitory Committee Chair
This committee will be in charge of securing and maintaining the garden and any garden assets (tools, etc.) This committee will look into fencing options to secure the gardens area and will maintain fencing. This committee will also be in charge of monitoring the garden plots to make sure they are being kept up according to garden rules. If there is a violation of rules or other dispute about plot use, committee members will contact the gardener(s) to work out a resolution to the issue. If unable to resolve the problem ‘one-on-one’, the chairperson of this committee will take the problem to the Executive Committee for resolution. This committee will need to prepare a budget each year and submit it for funding of its initiatives.
Fundraising Committee Chair
This committee will compile all the budget needs from the various committees and determine if fundraising is needed beyond income generated from plot fees. If so, this committee will organize fundraisers, research and write grants and look into other possible fundraising opportunities, from partnering with local organizations to getting discounted materials from local suppliers.
