Membership Committee Minutes March 11, 2015 Members present: Sandy Ogburn, Keith Greenarch, Teresa Staley, Sandra Hicks. Staff: Will Miller Joshua left us 1 hour on Thursday for any training we feel needs to be done. Sandy asked members if they had any ideas. Nobody did and Will suggested members email Sandy if they think of anything. Since Gloria was absent, Sandy will email her to see if she has any suggestions. Interview times: We reviewed the applications we have on hand and chose 3 that will keep us in MMR compliance. Sandy will email the 3 applicants to set up interview times. Will gave update on meeting with Valerie Johnson at the governor’s office. He stated that we will present all applications new and reapplication as well at one time. She agreed. As pertaining to the 4 seats open…..she said to send all applicants more than 4 and they will move forward. No endorsement from the SILC IS required for reappointment but Boards and Commissions will welcome any letters of reference. He also reminded her that Dorothy Frye is still listed as a member and Valerie said they will fix it. Will also said he checked on making sure all members listed are available for reappointment. Teresa contacted Tavonne’s and Gary references and they look promising. With no further business: Keith moved to adjourn, Teresa seconded. Meeting adjourned.
