What is the YAB- What can you expect in the upcoming year? — Jay <br />talked about the history and purpose of YAB, which was formed in 2002 by City <br />Council to give youth a voice. YAB members represent the ideas and concerns of <br />their peers. The board is youth directed, members live in Louisville, and they <br />attend monthly meetings. They also volunteer in the community monthly, and <br />learn about local government by visiting other commissions twice yearly (once in <br />fall, once in spring), and work on a larger, year-long project. We discussed past <br />projects, including Trek the Trails and the Aquatic Center. <br />VII. Expectations of Board members and Professional Conduct - The YAB <br />liaisons discussed meeting rules and the attendance policy. Board members <br />should not have more than two excused absences, and they must notify liaisons <br />at least one day in advance if possible. During meetings, members must strive to <br />be good listeners, to raise their hands before speaking, and never to pick on local <br />businesses. <br />City of Louisville <br />Recreation Center 900 West Via Appia Louisville CO 80027 <br />303.335.4902 (phone) 303.335.4959 (fax) www. ci.louisville. co. us <br />
