Being an HCoop board member is not a particularly intense task, but the tasks performed are essential to the operation of HCoop. This page is incomplete, but should provide an overview of the tasks a board member is expected to perform.

1. General Duties

• Approving new members as they apply
• Voting on purging of members with negative balances
• Setting general HCoop policies
• Meeting four times a year to discuss financial situation, plans, etc.
• Authorize purchases

Traditionally the BoardOfDirectors has been involved in technical decisions; this is mostly an artifact of the folks writing code and performing maintenance usually ending volunteered into taking board positions as well.
