Basic Board Responsibilities
Board meetings are held at the library in the Mid City Mall at 7:00 p.m. on the third of each month except July and December. Trustees are encouraged to attend all meetings, if at all possible. Should a Trustee need to miss a meeting, notification to the secretary should be made as soon as possible. Three consecutive unexcused absences warrant dismissal from the Board.
Trustees are expected to serve on at least one committee and are encouraged to chair one. Committees include: Alleys, Art Fair, Attorneys Group, By-laws and Resolutions, Concerts, External Affairs (city & county liaison, other neighborhood associations, police, utilities, public relations), Financial Affairs, Neighborhood Preservation & Development, Newsletter, and Nominating.
Our main fundraiser is the annual Cherokee Triangle Art Fair, which is always held the weekend before Derby. Occasionally a Cherokee Triangle resident is willing and able to allow the CTA to host a cocktail party in their home. Trustees are expected to participate in these events.
