Such attendance may be either in-person or by teleconference. Director compensation shall be limited to one meeting per day, and no more than 10 meetings per month.
Directors shall be reimbursed, over and above such compensation for expenses reasonable and necessary to conduct CHWD's business pursuant to the provisions of CHWD's reimbursement policies then in effect.
This Ordinance, if adopted, will be effective 60 days after adoption, or on April 19, 2026.
