You must explicitly notify the Office that you want to update your information e.g. \u00a0saying &#8220;Update my email address on file to example@example.com&#8221; vs just emailing the Office a query from a new email address.<\/p>\n<p>Messages from members will normally receive a prompt response from Woodsworth&#8217;s Office Staff, who handle virtually all administrative matters with little or no input from the Board. Staff have the skills and resources to resolve most issues. Matters that may require a Board decision are rapidly brought to the Board&#8217;s attention, along with background material that can speed the process.<\/p>\n<p>The Board email address is to be used only for escalations from members where the office could not adequately assist, and for correspondence from committees. Note that the Reconciliation Committee has rebooted for assistance with issues between members.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Board\u00a0reads all submissions to the inbox, and endeavors to respond quickly to business correspondence and official communications from co-op committees. Response to individual co-op members is limited to cases where\u00a0Board\u00a0intervention seems necessary. The Board meets just once a month and typically intervenes only on matters of overall co-op policy, or in cases where it becomes convinced that all other channels have failed. The cut off for correspondence to be covered in a board meeting is 9 days before the meeting date.<\/p>\n<p>LOOKING AHEAD:<\/p>\n<p>The board&#8217;s next meeting will be June 24, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>2025.
