HCTV Board Minutes
January 23, 2013

Present:  Jon Lussier, Steve Freihofner, Dave Mitchell, John Klee, Kurt Bos, Board Members; Leif Goldberg, station manager, Robin Grant, technical director.

The meeting was called to order at 6:37 p.m. by Steven Freihofner.

David Mitchell moved to accept the minutes of the October 30, 2012 Board meeting.  Motion seconded by Kurt Bos.  Passed unanimously.

Leif presented for the Board’s review the HCTV financial statement covering June 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, and the cumulative Profit/Loss statement for January 1 through January 22, 2013.

Leif advises he will disburse raffle funds promised to the food shelf.

Robin Grant reported that the station’s computers are getting old (i.e., more than 5 years old), and that replacement expenses were on the horizon.  Jon Lussier suggested that HCTV start a capital budget to which funds may be dedicated for specific purposes, with provision for annual contributions.  The other Board members agreed that was a good idea to meet future equipment purchases. The Board asked staff to come up with equipment replacement schedule so that the amount of annual funding for the capital account could be estimated.

The next Board meeting should be held sometime in March, 2013, to review a budget plan for 2013.  Leif will advise of best time to meet.

Dave Mitchell made the motion to adjourn at 7:45 p.m., seconded by Jon Lussier, passed unanimously.
