Hyde Park Neighborhood Council (HPNC) is volunteer-run and organized as: a Board of Trustees elected by the members, Representatives to external groups, and several Committees.
The fifteen trustees of the Board are elected incrementally; a class of five trustees (one third of the board) is elected at each year's annual meeting. Each reelected or newly elected trustee serves a three year term. Vacancies within a class of trustees are filled by recommendation of the Nominating Committee and a vote of the full board, with the appointment lasting until that class's reelection.
Officers must be trustees and are typically appointed formally at the next monthly meeting after the annual meeting. They may not hold office consecutively for more than two full one-year terms.
