Strategic Planning

· Judy gave an overview of the strategic planning process.

· Lew gave out copies of a Strategic Plan that had been developed for NCTV by past chair David Kyle, Elisa Parker, Lew Sitzer and others. Board members were asked to read this at home in preparation of developing a plan for PEEF.
o Lew feels there is much greater need for Board involvement in PEEF activities, and better organization, so that our meeting time can be maximized and more can be accomplished.

· Judy handed out a self-assessment survey for each Board member to take on their own.
· A Strategic Planning committee meeting was formed, to include Judy, Chuck, Elisa and Lew.

Organizational/Flow Charts

· The group reviewed materials developed by Chuck and made suggestions for revisions.

Budget

· Lew distributed an Income and Expense Report for NCTV FY 08-09. We discussed how to allocate PEEF service fees so that each project would pay its fair share of PEEF expenses.

Website & Public Relations
· Chip led a discussion about the upcoming PEEF website.
· Chuck asked about getting business cards directors could use when representing PEEF. Lew will pursue the idea.

Judy reminded the Board to do its “homework” - the paperwork she handed out.
