Dr. Gary Markewich, - Men?s Club President, Rob Murdock, Dr. Steven Saxe, Mark Scheiner, Sherry Sigesmund (Honorary Member) and Faye Steinberg. Staff: Louise Appenzeller, Helene Rosen. Welcome: Sandy Mallin, President, called the meeting of the Board of Directors to order on December 7, 1998 at 5:30 p.m. at the Summerlin Medical Center Conference Room. She welcomed everyone to the meeting and advised the Board that she had appointed Steve Mack to the Board. She next stated that the Gala was a huge success. She said that the efforts of everyone were overwhelming. She said they grossed in excess of $100,000 and it was in no small measure to the hard work of everyone involved. She asked for the Minutes to reflect her personal, and the Temple?s appreciation, to the entire Gala Committee. Minutes: Faye Steinberg asked that the Minutes of the previous meeting be corrected to include her name as an attendee. A motion was made bv Dr. Steven Saxe to accept the Minutes as corrected, seconded hv Rob Murdock, voted upon and carried unanimously. Treasurers Report: Sandy said there was no Treasurer?s Report available due to the complexity of Helene?s schedule with the Gala. Dr. Gary Markewich asked what was the status of the Temple?s income and expenses. He stated he felt there should be a monthly report. Sandy stated that she has spoken to Amy Boruszak, a Temple member, who happens to be a CPA, to review the Temple?s books. She said that Amy, Helene and she will meet to review the figures and there will be a detailed financial report at the January meeting. Steve Mack stated that he felt in order for Board members to act responsibly there must be financial reports available to them on a monthly or quarterly basis. Mark Scheiner agreed with Steve and volunteered to serve as the Budget & Finance Chair. Maury Jones, Ellis Landau, Steve Mack and Dr. Steve Saxe said they would be willing to serve on the Finance Committee. Dr. Steve Saxe made a motion to give the financial records to an independent outside accounting firm, or CPA firm, to evaluate and audit the books. 2 Rob Murdock seconded the motion. Discussion followed. The motion was not voted upon. However, Helene said that she will provide a monthly report, with a balance sheet, for the next meeting. Committees: Faye Steinberg asked for the names of the Temple Committee chairpersons. Sandy stated that the following people serve as chairpersons: Melanie Greenberg, Membership; Dr. Steve Saxe, Personnel and Board of Education; Gene Greenberg, Ritual; Elaine Steinberg, Fundraising and Rob Murdock who volunteered to serve as Facilities chair. Faye volunteered to serve on the Board of Education Committee and Membership Committee. She suggested that there be an article in the next Bulletin asking for volunteers to serve on the various Temple committees. Sandy said this would be done. Steve Mack made a motion that there be a minimum of five people appointed to each standing committee, including the Chair. Rob Murdock seconded the motion. Discussion followed. No vote taken. Faye next said that the area in back of the stage at the Hebrew Academy needs to be cleaned up. She stated, and Melanie Greenberg concurred, the lighting behind the Hebrew Academy, in the area surrounding the building and the office is very poor. Rob Murdock will investigate the problems and handle the situation. Board of Education: Dr. Saxe advised the Board that there was a problem with a student in the Hebrew School. However, it was suggested that this matter be discussed at a Board of Education meeting. Board Responsibility: Steve Saxe said that Board members need to take a more active role on the Board and in the synagogue. He asked that the Minutes reflect the wording in the bylaws regarding this subject. The bylaws state: ?Article VII. VACANCIES, SECTION 1 A vacancy is created on the Board of Directors if (a) a Director resigns from the Board; (b) a Director is absent from more than four regular and/or Special Board Meetings in any calendar year without a reasonable excuse. The vacancy shall be deemed by the Secretary', to have been created on the date of the 4,h Board Meeting from which the Director is absent. This information is to be brought to the Executive Committee first for its review. The Executive Committee shall discuss the situation with the Board Member. The Executive Committee shall then decide whether to retain or remove the Board Member and then bring its recommendation to the Board at its next regularly scheduled meeting. Steve further suggested that each Board member receive a letter 3 reflecting this information, along with the number of times they have missed a Board meeting. Caterer: Faye next questioned the previous Minutes with reference to Starlight Caterers. Sandy said that this is a mute point, as she has had no response from Starlight. Discussion regarding this matter was put off temporarily. She stated that she will be looking for another caterer and will advise Faye so that she can be a part of the selection process. Litigation: The matter o f Schwartz v. Temple Beth Sholom was presented to the Board. A motion was made bv Steve Mack that the Board accepts the President?s recommendation regarding this matter. Seconded hv Fave Steinberg. Discussion followed. The vote was taken. Nine Board members voted in favor: one Board member, Robert Murdock, voted against. Motion carried. New Board Location: It was announced that future Board meetings would be held at Mountainview Hospital on Tenaya. Specific dates and room location will be forwarded to the Board with their next agenda and meeting notice. Passover: Sandy next talked about Passover and the possibility of having a Temple Seder. She explained that this has always been done at the Temple when it was on Oakey. She said that in view of the fact that the Temple is no longer there she suggested other locations where a Seder could be held. She said this matter would be discussed further with the Rabbi upon his return from New York. High Holiday Davs: The next matter to be discussed was the possibility o f having the High Holiday serv ices at the Resorts at Summerlin. Steve Saxe said he has been in contact with them and he should have a written proposal from them by Friday, December 11th. Rob Murdock asked if High Holiday services could be held at the Hebrew Academy next year? Discussion followed. It was decided that this idea would be discussed further based upon the proposal that Steve receives. 4 Miscellaneous: ? Sandy advised the Board that Rabbi Goodman would like to hold a Shabbaton weekend with the Board. Discussion followed with no conclusive decision. ? Steve Saxe spoke of a recent evaluation meeting that the Hebrew Academy held at Tournament Players Club. He explained the process that took place and suggested that the Temple do something similar. He stated that the Facilitator was Cheryl Miller and she did an outstanding job. Sandy said she would discuss this with Rabbi Goodman and perhaps something like this could be held instead of a Shabbaton weekend. ? Steve Mack asked what was being done about hiring an Executive Director? Steve Saxe stated that he felt the office needs to hire someone to be responsible for the daily operation of the Temple business. He suggested that a national search begin. ? Faye Steinberg next suggested that an article be placed in the Bulletin requesting sponsors for the weekly Oneg Shabbats and Kiddushim. Sandy said this would be done in the next issue. There being no further business the meeting was adjourned at 7:45 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Louise F.
