SECTION 2. STANDING COMMITTEES Standing Committees Membership Policy & Protocol Summary SECTION 1. STANDING COMMITTEES - Revised and approved November 18, 2009 Standing committees of the Corporation shall be as listed below. The Chair for each committee shall be appointed by the President and voted on by the Board of Directors. The Chair must be a property owner in good standing (no outstanding dues, assessment, etc.). The standing committees are as follows: (a) Organization and Resource Development: • While the Board may have general ideas about fund raising, organization strategy, and developing resources, it should be looking to this committee for concrete work plan proposals. Once proposals are approved, this committee will need to pull together resources and complete the projects. (b) Physical Enhancement: • To assist in shaping the physical image of Downtown as a place attractive to shoppers, investors, business owners, and visitors. To succeed, this committee will need to persuade fiercely independent business and property owners and civic leaders to commit to an ambitious, pointed agenda for physical enhancement to Downtown. (c) Economic Enhancement: • Has primary responsibility for gathering and interpreting market information, which it will then use to create an economic development strategy for Downtown. Other committees rely on this information for their work. Because the entire program depends on the information it gathers and analyzes, the Committee must develop excellent communication with the Board and the other committees. (d) Marketing and Promotions: Primary responsibility for strengthening Downtown's image and marketability. • Changes community attitudes about Downtown. • Builds a unified image. • Generates fresh activity with Downtown as the center of community life. • Communicates progress and excitement attracting shoppers and investors. • Creating new image campaigns, retail promotions, and special events to lure people to Downtown. (e) Events Committee (Added at the Regular Board Meeting on October 15, 2009, amended bylaws to include Events through a unanimous decision of the Board Of Directors). 22 19E-36
