NABOR Committees

A committee’s primary function is to contribute to the economy and efficiency of the Board -- to provide programs, products, and services that best meet members’ needs and are cost effective.

Committees are the lifeblood of an association because they provide:

forums for ideas
vision for the future
accomplish the majority of an association’s work

Types of NABOR Committees
NABOR has two basic types of committees, and each type fulfills a specific function, as charged:

· Standing committees (members are appointed annually by the President and subject to the approval of the Board of Directors)

· Special Committees (open to both REALTORÒ and affiliate members)
