11/12/2025	0	HOUSING AUTHORITY	ADOPTED; Minutes note: Ken Barbeau, HACM’s Interim Secretary–Executive Director, explained that the Travaux Bylaws are being amended to state that the Vice President is no longer required to be a Director on the Travaux Board. He noted that the Secretary is already not required to be a Director and the Treasurer is designated as HACM’s Chief Financial Officer. Under the current structure, the Vice President, who is a Director, is expected to assume the President’s duties if the President is absent or unable to perform day-to-day operations. However, the current Vice President holds a full-time job and is unable to take on those responsibilities. Therefore, the language is being revised so that only the Vice President may be someone who is not a Director, and may feel they are better positioned to take on the duties of Vice President, while the other officers are not required to be.
