A. The board will hear concerns involving the operations and concerns of the center by Loaves & Fishes during its monthly meetings. If following discussion a majority of the board (or of the quorum of the board present) believes the concern to be valid, they shall draft a note of concern to be presented to the Loaves & Fishes.
