Board Meeting Minutes
Board Meeting Agendas
Agendas are posted below 24 hours prior to a meeting. The Board Calendar serves as a guideline for Board agenda items. If you would like to appear before the Board, please email the Board President. We’d love to see you at these meetings.
Because we recognize that many BFA community members may be unable to attend the Board meetings in person, we will be “broadcasting” our Board meetings by listen-only teleconference. Call-in information will be listed on the top of the agenda for each meeting.
Open comments can be made in person at a Board meeting or submitted through the form below before noon on the day of the Board meeting. Open Comment Forms received by the deadline will be read out loud during the open comment period of the Board meeting. Any Open Comment Forms received after 12:00 p.m. on the day of the Board meeting will be read at the next regular meeting of the Board.
