COMMITTEES
The Board of Directors selects and elects from its body a slate of Officers and a smaller Executive Committee (usually composed of 10 - 25 members). Because the Board of Directors meets only quarterly, they may opt to delegate their powers and duties to the Executive Committee, who meet as often as necessary (usually monthly) to oversee the day to day operations of Chicago Loop Alliance.
