July 2, 1987

Minority Consortia Contract Extensions

Unanimously

WHEREAS,

CPB Management is conducting a review of the Corporation's Minority Program Consortia policy, to determine the effectiveness of that policy in meeting the Corporation's goal of diversity; and

WHEREAS,

the review will not be completed before some of the Minority Consortia contracts are ready for competitive renewal, as described in the present policy.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED,

that Management is authorized to extend those Minority Consortia contracts which are due for competitive renewal, for a period of not more than one year beyond their present expiration date, under the current terms and conditions of those contracts and with the current contractors, so that the conclusions reached by Management's review if subsequently approved by the Board, can apply equally to all Minority Program Consortia.
