The executive director is responsible for bringing potential conflicts to the attention of the board in addition to individual board members raising potential conflicts that they may have. If the executive director believes that a conflict exists, a memorandum describing the relevant facts is prepared for the board and is included as a part of the minutes. At the meeting at which the conflict is discussed, the tchdc director with the conflict (the tchdc director) is not counted in determining the presence of a quorum for the vote on the related transaction. The tchdc director does not participate in the discussion of the transaction in which he or she is interested unless the tchdc director is aware of material undisclosed facts pertaining to the transaction. The tchdc director may respond to questions, however he or she shall not attempt to exert his or her personal influence with respect to the matter, either at or outside the meeting. The tchdc director will not vote on the transaction and will be recorded as not voting.”
