#6: The Council Executive Director (obsolete)
This resolution has been superseded by resolution #26, "Positions within the council".
The Council Executive Director runs the day to day operations, acts as the spokesman, and generally handles the public relations of the SPF project. Any public statements made by the Council Executive Director shall adhere to the common position of the council and shall not ignore significant positions within the project community without the explicit approval of the council.
The Council Executive Director may speak for himself freely as long as it is made sufficiently clear that he does not speak for the SPF project.
The Council Executive Director also acts as the Council Vice Chair should the Council Chair be unavailable.
(Proposed on 2004-12-04 by Chuck Mead and Wayne Schlitt. Passed unanimously. Amendment proposed on 2004-12-11 by Julian Mehnle, Wayne Schlitt, and Chuck Mead. Amendment passed unanimously.)

operational will of the council

<Julian> ok
<csm> unless the council issues it's own statement (doubtful)
<grumpy> the ED can say things that aren't the will of the council, if so
noted, right?
<Julian> Agreed.
<csm> grumpy: yes... just caveate with an "I think"
<Julian> ...if so _explicitly_ noted...
<MarkK> Yes, let the ED make clear he speaks for himself
<grumpy> freeside: ?
<csm> but in matters of execution the councils will has to be done by the
ED... it's what the ED exists to do
<freeside> okey dokey
<csm> and that should give you the formal power, authority, voice that
you need
<grumpy> ok, sounds good to me then.
<csm> excellent
<MarkK> sounds good to me
