What is a Parish Corporate Board of Directors?
A parish's Corporate Board of Directors is the decision making body of the parish's fiscal and civil matters as a corporate entity. These matters include approval of budgets, annual reports, sale or acquisition of property, investments or acquiring debt, and compliance with the Arizona Corporate Commission's reporting requirements. A Corporate Board of Directors is different from a parish's Pastoral Council, Finance Council, and Administrative Staff, which are all advisory in nature to the pastor.
