The Executive Director serves as a voting member of the board in accordance with a conflict of interest agreement. The Executive Director abstains from voting unless her vote becomes necessary to progress the business of the board meeting; i.e. in the event of a tie, to create a voting quorum in the event trustees are unable to attend.
