Is this merely a rehash of the "Consultation on Increasing the size of the ARIN Board of Trustees" discussion on implementing politicized "Diversity"?

 

Is the Board unanimous on this issue? If not, what are the dissenting opinions?

 

Who is the independent consultant/consulting agency ARIN hired for this endeavor?  What were their objectives specifically?

 

John -

The consultation that is now underway is specifically regarding the implementation of Term Limits for the ARIN Board of Trustees. At present, the Board has reviewed the proposal to add term limits and approved having a consultation with the community oil this topic so as to gather community input – as this will help inform the Board of Trustees with their future consideration of the proposed change and potential adoption. 

 

The firm hired to conduct the overall ARIN governance review was Baker Tilly and the review centered on best practices in not-for-profit governance and ARIN’s existing practices.  Baker Tilly was selected as a result of a competitive process whereby ARIN issued an RFP and five responses were received that were deemed competitive and of high quality (as noted in the Board minutes for 29 July 2020 https://www.arin.net/about/welcome/board/meetings/2020_0729/)

 

I hope this information help in your consideration of the proposed change to implement Term Limits for the ARIN Board of Trustees.  If you have specific views that you can share in support or in opposition of the proposed change to add term limits as detailed in the consultation, that would be most excellent.

 

Thanks!

/John
