Members
The Resolutions Committee members are appointed by the president from the general membership. It is recommended that this committee consist of approximately five members.
Sub-Committees
This committee coordinates with the Summer Conference and Academy Committee to see if there was someone they wanted to recognize with a resolution. Sometimes there is a special person, organization or facility that has gone above and beyond and only the Summer Conference and Academy Committee would know that.
Meeting Frequency
As needed; communication done entirely via e-mail and/or phone.
Expenses
In-kind time, travel and correspondence of chair and members should be incorporated into the respective city budgets.
Letter of Support
Before accepting the position of Committee Chair, the member shall provide a letter of support from his or her city to the FACC President.
Committee Coordination
The chair serves as a coordinator and oversees the committee, acting as a liaison between the committee and the Board of Directors. The chair should make sure that all committee members understand their duties and the role they play in accomplishing their goals. Shortly after appointment, the chair should begin to organize the members and establish a meeting calendar including proposed timeframes. The chair should be available to answer questions from committee and board members during their term.
FACC Board Meetings
The chair should plan on attending all of the FACC Board meetings. When a required report is due, the committee chair will prepare an agenda item for inclusion in the Board agenda packets; if there has not been any committee activity and a report is not warranted, the chair shall send an email to FACC staff notifying them an agenda item is not being submitted.
Committee Appointments
The president of FACC will send the list of appointees to the committee chair each year. The committee chair will contact the members of the committee. The chair must document those committee members that remained active and sufficiently participated during the year. This information needs to be sent to FACC staff at the end of the year. FACC staff will then forward the Certificate of Committee Accomplishment to those members who actively served.
