ABOUT
The AMPO Board of Directors serves as the Association’s governing and policymaking body, overseeing its affairs, finances, and strategic direction. The Board hires and evaluates the Executive Director, adopts the annual budget, and sets policies to guide AMPO’s mission. Board members are elected for three-year terms and may serve up to three consecutive terms total. The Board is designed to represent a range of geographic regions and MPO sizes, and is made up of nine voting members and one non-voting (ex-officio) member.
Officers of the Board include a President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer, elected annually with defined roles in leadership, governance, and financial oversight. A formal nomination process ensures transparency, geographic balance, and broad representation. Board members and officers serve voluntarily. The Board typically meets five times per year, with at least two of those in person. The time commitment is approximately 20 hours per year.
