The Board of Directors:

Minutes MSEA

12/17/2008

Present: John, Bill, Mike, Jeff, Ann, Darrell, Cathy

Items discussed in the Meeting:

1.       Form 8498, Authority for CEP expired in fall o 2002. Based on our joint meeting with NATP, it was determined our CPE sessions should be ok per Ann. It has been determined that John, president will coordinate the update of MSEA authority for CPE sessions. It was determined the update would be done and no others notified of the problem since MSEA is covered in the 06 and 07 joint meeting with NATP.

2.       Five votes were made for MSEA to have a separate CPE meeting next fall. Some issues were discussed with present officials of NATP and some attitude problems. Most agreed to continue the joint meeting with NATP; however, MSEA will have joint meeting in the fall for CPE.

3.       Pens- It was agreed to send EA pens to members of MSEA and to charge 2.00 for additional pens  requested by some members and those that are not members of MSEA.

4.       Banner- John is to purchase a new banner for MSEA.

5.       Bank Account- problems still exist in the fact that the old treasurer is on signature authority and not all mail is received on accounts by new treasurer. It was approved to move money to new bank with signature authority to include the new treasurer and officers to include the President of MSEA.
