The KBOO Coup was to bring more membership input into the workings of the KBOO Board. After the bad publicity, the bad feelings, the bad behavior, the KBOO Board had an opportunity -- an obligation, really -- to reassure members, donors and the wider community that KBOO was in the hands of good governance people. The Board failed.
Ever since the end of 2013, until just recently, interested parties needed to schlep down to the station and sit through chaotic and unproductive meetings or try to find the meeting minutes posted on the wall. For almost half a year, the Board has failed to post their meeting minutes on the KBOO web site.
So, after all this time, what do we learn. Lets start here:
KBOO Board Meeting, 27 Jan 2014.
"Victoria: Had to terminate employee for non-appearance."
UNION UNION UNION!
Since when did showing up for work, or, when there, actually doing work, become a requirement for employment at KBOO?
Motion to request notes from Sussman Shank, LLP. Seconded. Passed unanimous.
A lawsuit perhaps? If so, how much of a dent in the budget did that make? The Finance Committee report might tell us, as well as inform us of KBOO's fiscal state of health. There was no Finance Committee report noted. There were no committee reports noted.
So, how are things going at KBOO? Seems like the Board would rather not let us know. Invisibility is not transparency.
