D. Organization Structure/Board Membership

Disassociation of SEDC and SJC: We are advised by legal counsel that our

two corporate entities, Siskiyou Economic Development Council 501©4 and Siskiyou Jobs Council

501©3, must clearly demonstrate independent

decision making to engage in the financial transactions associated with New Market Tax Credits. To

adequately demonstrate independence, we will need to dissociate the organization’s board of

directors.

Staff recommends that we replace 3 board members of the SJC and elect 3 new board members to serve

on the SJC board, thus creating a majority of distinct, independent board members.

Recommended Action:

1. Call to Order, a meeting of the Board Directors for Siskiyou Jobs Council.
