A Property Business Improvement District (PBID), like every corporation, is controlled by its Board of Directors. As a board member, you have a great deal of responsibility. You are the representative of the constituents of the PBID, and as such, your job is to ensure that the organization adheres to its mission and that its interests are protected. While the board certainly delegates tasks to the PBID’s employees, the other members of the board are ultimately responsible for the PBID’s actions.
The power of the board comes from its actions as a group; no individual director can control the PBID or make decisions on its behalf. Being a board member is serious business. By serving on a board, you are in the exciting position of being able to shape and contribute to important initiatives that impact your community. All that is required is that you be informed, responsible and exercise your best judgment.
Organizations need good board members, and communities need good organizations.
In carrying out your duties, the most important documents for you to have and understand are the PBID’s Certificate of Incorporation, District Plan, and By-Laws. These documents outline the purpose of the organization, the structure of the board, criteria for membership, quorum and voting rules, officers’ roles and responsibilities, board meeting policies and more. They also guide the activities and the operation of the PBID. The 80 Watt District Board of Directors serve a one year term, however, they can be re-elected for 3 years
