COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: This item will be presented to the full board on December 16, 2022.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Board of Director adopted Bylaws in 2017 that require policies adopted by the Board to be reviewed every five years. The initial five-year cycle ends December 2022. Staff has identified for review the Real Estate Transaction Policy which was adopted by the Board in 2014. This policy authorizes the President and CEO or their designee to enter into certain real estate transactions under terms consistent with current industry standards, including market rates, for transactions that have no significant long-term impact on CapMetro and for amounts not to exceed $150,000 per year per agreement. Under this policy, the purchase and sale or disposal of real property, regardless of value, must be approved by the Board. Staff is not recommending any changes to this policy at this time.
