Bridget <br />stated at this meeting that she has also prepared revised bylaws for the Historical <br />Commission to adopt to replace the current bylaws that make reference to the Commission <br />being a nonprofit 501c3. These bylaws will need to be approved by the City first since the <br />Commission is an official City board. <br /> <br />The attendees also discussed a strategy for announcing the new structure of having both an <br />advisory board and a fundraising board to supporters and the public. The Louisville Historian <br />can certainly be utilized to explain the positive reasons for having two boards, each with a <br />distinct mission, to support the Historical Museum. Also, on a practical level, members and <br />donors will need to be informed of the name of the entity to which they should write checks. <br />Other possible opportunities for publicity were also discussed. <br /> <br />The attendees also discussed other steps in the process towards creating a separate <br />foundation. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
