REV: 12-12-24 LF Exhibit “A” Governance Structure Redwood City Together uses a two-tiered governance model described below: Redwood City Together Leadership Council Role: Serves as the policy-making body for the collaborative and takes action after receiving information and recommendations from the Executive Team and the Redwood City Together Executive Director. The Leadership Council sets vision, guides strategy, supports aligned activities, helps advance policy, approves the appointment/termination of the Executive Director and any changes to the Executive Director’s salary, approves the annual budget, approves program initiatives, approves monitoring and evaluation of program implementation, aligns the values and purposes of member organizations and Redwood City Together, and provides resources to sustain and grow the work of the collaborative. In addition, the Leadership Council seeks resources and provides the forum in which issues impacting the community served by Redwood City Together can be raised and addressed in a collaborative manner. Membership: Each Redwood City Together collaborative partner organization is entitled to have up to two members from the policy body of its organization serve on the Leadership Council. These members should be elected or appointed directors, or have equivalent policy level responsibility in their respective organization. Additionally, the two at-large members are entitled to serve on the Leadership Council. Structure: The Leadership Council will annually select a Chair from its members, who will be responsible for leading the meetings of the Leadership Council, serving as liaison between the Leadership Council and the Executive Team, and working with the Executive Director to develop meeting agendas. The Leadership Council Chairperson will serve in that capacity for one year and will be from the same core member organization as the Chairperson of the Executive Team. Each core member organization will have the opportunity for its representatives to lead the Leadership Council and the Executive Team. The Chairperson for the Leadership Council will rotate among core member organizations on an annual basis every August. Meetings: The Leadership Council will meet at least five (5) times annually. Additional meetings will be scheduled as needed. The Leadership Council may choose to have one of these meetings designated as a “joint policy meeting,” in which the Redwood City Together Executive Team and Leadership Council will meet together. The Leadership Council may choose to convene a meeting of the community and program partners that work in Redwood City Together priority areas to share information and receive input about community needs.
