[Kzyxtalk] questions

[David]

Thank you for the clarification. It appeared in your last email as though
you were suggesting that the reason Sheila wrote to the FCC was due to
governance and then you cited committees. 

 

"I believe that Sheila and others were forced to appeal to the FCC because
of a failure of governance.  There is a standing board committee, the
Personnel Committee, that is supposed to hear such complaints: "The
Personnel Committee will hear and recommend action on personnel grievances
that are not resolved at staff level."  The refusal to implement the
committees is a failure of the current board and general manager, as it is
their joint responsibility."

 

So I must conclude that Sheila's writing to the FCC was not based on
anything on which the FCC would rule.

 

Once again, Thank you for the clarification.

 

David

I am not aware of a specific FCC regulation that details the creation of
such committees.  Everything below is from the current "MCPB Policies and
Procedures" that the board of directors has adopted since 1989, as
authorized by state law as a nonprofit corporation.  They are as binding on
management and staff as any regulation.  Same for the Program Advisory
Committee.  If anyone thinks any policies are inconsistent with FCC
regulations, they should alert the board.

 

This is all separate from the Community Advisory Board, which is a specific
requirement of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting as a condition for
funding.

 

Please click on the link below for all of the policies adopted by the board
of directors and currently in force.  Like the laws and regulations, they
have two purposes: 1) to empower people, 2) to keep any one person from
having too much power.

 

It is good for staff to ask such questions.  Hope this helps.

 

Denny

Would you please provide the FCC regulation dealing with the creation and
function of committees?

 

I'd appreciate the help.
