Fred played a big part of making Eno <br /> Mill happen. His artistic vision and experience as an artist have been instrumental in <br /> the accomplishments of our organization. <br /> 2) Approval of November 2022 Board Minutes - John moved and Crystal seconded. <br /> All were in favor of approving. <br /> 3) Katie reported that the Board of County Commissioner (BOCC) updated two <br /> Advisory Board policies and determined they will look at policies every two years. <br /> a. Attendance - There will no longer be a difference between excused and <br /> unexcused absences. Also, board members should be removed from the <br /> board if they miss more than three meetings in a year. Katie will send an <br /> email in writing to notify everyone of these updates and will clarify if the <br /> removal is on the 4th miss or the 3rd miss. <br /> b. Virtual Meetings — BOCC approved the use of virtual meetings for non- <br /> emergency times. Our board decided to continue in person meetings since <br /> all agreed it is the much preferred method of meeting. However, if anyone <br /> is sick, traveling, or has an issue with getting to the meeting, they can <br /> attend virtually by contacting Katie in advance for a link. <br /> 4) Board updates <br /> a. Welcome to Josh Rosenstein — All are excited for Josh to join the board <br /> and the connections he brings from the Chapel Hill Arts Commission. He <br /> will serve as liaison with that group. Josh is a standup comedian and <br /> musician. He leads an open mic night at Zogs and other places. His day <br /> job is non-profit financial management. <br />
