COMPLIANCE WITH CPB COMMUNITY ADVISORY BOARD REQUIREMENT

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting requires that each of our
stations have a functioning Community Advisory Board.  As it is
important that we ensure full compliance with Corporation for Public
Broadcasting Guidelines, be it resolved that:

CPB funding be distributed to each station only after receipt of the
following proof of CAB activity during the quarter immediately
preceding such disbursement.  Thus, a minimum of 1 CAB meeting per
quarter must be reported.  These reports shall be sent to both the CFO
and ED of the National Office and shall contain:

1)  Proof of the announcement of a CAB meeting or meetings on the
station website and on the air in the preceding quarter.  Such
announcement should include a statement that all CAB meeting are open
to the public, should contain a way for members of the listening
community to apply for CAB membership, and a way to submit input to
the CAB.

2)  A roster of the members and attendees of CAB meetings including
their names, addresses, phone #s, email addresses and organization
affiliation (if any).

3)  Minutes of a minimum of 1 CAB meeting from the previous quarter.
