1) Articles of Incorporation

The Directors reviewed and signed the Articles of
Incorporation, which will officially bring the
corporation into existence.

Greg will file the Articles with the Secretary of
State at the San Francisco office and pay the $115
filing fee in action for the organization. This fee
will be re-imbursed once the organization's bank
account is established.

Upon receipt of the certified Articles, Geoff will
file the fictitious business name.

2) By-laws. the Directors reviewed the draft by-laws.
There was general agreement to the current draft.
Staggering of terms was proposed to maintain
continuity of the Board (so there is never an entirely
new board)

It was resovled that the President will serve a one
year term from date of incorporation.

After one year the Board will elect a new President.

It was further resolved that the Secretary and
Treasurer will serve two-year terms.

After two years the Corporation will hold General
elections, to elect new Directors and potentially
revise the by-laws.

Until then, new directors will be appointed by
unanimous vote of the board.

Greg will revise the by-laws for further review at the
next meeting. Upon approval of the by-laws, receipt of
certified articles and filing of the FBN Casey will
take these documents to the bank and open a Native
Spaces account.

3) Logo

Geoff said he talked to a designer and asked him to
start working on a logo. The directors discussed
different approaches to a logo, such as what plants
and/or animals to include. The discussion generally
concerned balancing issues of graphic simplicity with
trying to convey multiple ideas within the image.

The directors determined three general guidelines to
give the designer.

1) A plant image with an animal and the golden Gate
Bridge
2) The letters NS with a plant image in between the
letters or as crests
3) Designer's discretion, or let the deisgner make his
own pitch

It was agreed that the image should be generally
simple and easily reproducible.

4) Web-site

The directors agreed to keep the web-site simple at
first but allow for expansion within the design. All
directors pledged to start sending Geoff contributions
to keep on file for the designer to use in
constructing the site.

A functioning web-site was identified as the first and
foremost communications and marketing goal.

The web domain name nativepaces.org was purchased at
the last meeting.

The next meeting will April 13th at 7:30 p.m.
