The By-Laws Govern How We Operate.
The CRCC By-Laws serve as the cornerstone of our nonprofit organization, providing invaluable insights into our operations and governance.
Within these guidelines, you’ll find essential information about our membership structure, the organizational structure of our Council, procedures for conducting elections, and the specific roles and responsibilities of our neighborhood-elected CRCC Directors.
These By-Laws are not just legal documents under Minnesota law – they are the heart and soul of our commitment to transparency, accountability, and effective organizational leadership, ensuring that we continue to serve our neighborhood with the utmost integrity and dedication.
CRCC | Executive Directors
Council Day-to-Day Leadership
The CRCC has two Executive Directors – contracted and appointed by a majority vote of the elected Council Directors. They lead all of the external and internal operations of the organization on behalf of the Council and the Membership.
Executive Directors provide the primary leadership of the CRCC and manage the day-to-day work of the organization – including hiring additional staff, program contractors and vendors. While the Council primarily establishes overall organizational policies, provides financial oversight, approves budgets and other legally required documents.
The Executive Directors have written position descriptions and each have specific duties and responsibilities – with one focusing on Policies & Programs and the other on Operations & Development.

The purpose of the Executive Committee is to ensure that the organization can function efficiently even when the full elected Community Council is not in session.
The Executive Committee is a smaller, elected group of Council Directors representing the entire Council. The committee is empowered to act on behalf of the larger body when it’s not in session.
This committee consists of the President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer – and is responsible for making decisions and taking action in urgent or routine matters that do not require the full Council’s involvement. Their actions are subject to review and ratification by the larger body at its next meeting.
