COMMITTEE REPORTS:

General Manager Contract Committee:

Emily Addison and Al Kirkcaldy presented the proposed amendments to
the GM contract of employment.  It was reported that there had been
extensive discussions by all parties.  The was some discussion among
the Board relating to concerns for General Manager's decisions to
waive salary amounts.

UPON A MOTION duly made, seconded and carried unanimously, the
amendments to the General Manager's contract of employment were
approved as presented.

Physical Plant and Technical:  See General Manager's report.

Publicity:
No report due to Ellen Waterman's resignation.

Sponsorship and Earned Revenue:
Al Kirkcaldy presented his report filled with good news. A number of
new sponsorships have been taken out, and old ones renewed. Several
businesses were recommended for approach. The General Manager
suggested that 16 week sponsorships could begin at any time during the
season and carry through rather than having to begin at the start of
the seasons.  It was also noted that Al requested Trent Radio business
cards to further aid in his dealings.

Social Convenor:
No report was made but the suggestion of a forthcoming social event
was made for October 9th or 10th.

Board Development:
No report was presented.

Live Music and Fundraising:
It was noted that the summer season's Live Music Day was very
successful and sales of $16.15 were raised for the station.

Trent University and Neighbourhood Relations:
Ongoing efforts are being made to obtain the exact number of full time
students attending Trent through Trent Radio's auditor. It was noted
that a response to Trent Radio's suggestion of an audit was sent from
Trent University. An audit was deemed an appropriate action by the
board. Efforts will be made to see it come to fruition.

UPON A MOTION duly made, seconded and carried, all committee reports
were accepted.

Business Arising:
It was noted to the Board's regret that Ellen and the Waterman family
have moved to Guelph.  Again - the best of luck.

CSIRP has requested six technical reports at $100 from Trent Radio.
The deadline is 30 September2002 and it is hope that this will be a
fundraising activity for the station.

OPERATIONS REPORT:

The General Manager presented the financial statements prepared by the
Bookkeeper for the fiscal year ended 31 August 2002.

The General Manager's report was presented (see attached).

Also,
It was noted that the locks at Trent Radio were changed during the
summer shut down as is the practice every 3-5 years.

The office was cleaned along with all of the other physical plant and
technical.  It was noted that the shingles on the roof are new 25-year
shingles and the building had not been painted on the exterior since
1985 so the past summer had been quite a 'physical plant' summer for
Trent Radio.

It was noted that Mike Fielding is volunteering on a weekly basis at
Trent Radio.

UPON A MOTION duly made, seconded and carried unanimously, the
Operations report, including the financial statements, the Summer
Programmer Coordinator's report, and the General Manager's report, was
approved.

Any Other Business:
Upon recommendation by the General Manager, the Board requests that
the General Manager approach TISPOC about them looking after their own
financial matters as the project linking TISPOC and Trent Radio is not
to happen in the near future.

It was noted that Emily Addison, Ryder Ziola, Anne Stevenson, and
Laura Farina will comprise the Nominating Committee with the advice of
the Programme Director.

The next board meeting will be held Monday, September 30, 2002

There being no other business, the meeting was adjourned.
