Questions for Corbett:
1. When will members get the minutes of the four board meetings last year and the minutes of the Assembly that was held Oct. 15, 2011?
2. Will there be an in-person meeting of the board later this month or will it be by telephone which it was last year?
3. Will you reveal the terms of the new three-year contract of COO Bill Murray which starts this month? Federal law says members must be told the salaries of the top eight executives of an association but a loophole allows an association to delay filing IRS Form 990, which has this data, until Nov. 15 of the following year.
4. Will you provide the 2012 Assembly with the 990 after three years of it being withheld from that body?
...etc.
