Confidentiality Policy

At it's first meeting, the committee adopted a confidentiality policy. Its purpose is twofold:
  • to provide a vehicle for those who wish to submit information that they do not wish attributed to themselves by name to contribute
  • to covenant with each other that we will respect the committee's process and not release information before we as a group are ready

The committee's confidentiality policy is as follows:
The Star Island Opening Late (IOL) Committee was established by the Star Island Corporation Board of Directors "to review the elements which led to the delayed opening of the 2007 season and recommend any changes to board policy and process or the staff and its process."

To understanding the events and actions that resulted in the delayed opening, we welcome information from all sources and pledge to respect the confidentiality of those individuals who request it. While we may utilize and disseminate information provided in confidence, we will protect the identity of people who provide us that information. The Committee will not accept information submitted by anonymous sources. Signed communications may be sent to the IOL Committee at StarIslandOpenedLate@gmail.com

As individuals, we have pledged not to release information we have collected, except as needed to further our investigations, until the committee as a whole decides to release interim or final documents.

We have asked that the Board of Directors affirm our confidentiality policy, and that it not request from the committee any attribution for information received in confidence.
