As part of the restructuring of the board of directors approved at the April 2011 shareholders meeting, board members will now be elected on a rotating basis, with a three year term. Additionally, it was determined that the board would be limited to 15 members to create and sustain strategic governance and achieve organizational excellence.
In the strategic plan the organization adopted last April, we outlined the organizations goals for governance moving forward. The new board structure is a result of The Clean Trust working to accomplish these goals, said newly elected Chairman Darrell Paulson.
New board members were elected to serve a one, two or three year term to start the rotation of terms. Elected board members for the coming year are:
Serving one year: Graham Bedwell, The Rouse Company, Dan Mabesoone, MasterCare Corp; Norman Maia, MFT National Cleaning Services, Inc.; Darrell Paulson, Advanced Restoration Specialist; and, Tony Wheelwright (retired).

Patrick Winters will continue to serve as The Clean Trust President and CEO.
The Clean Trust thanks all outgoing board members for their years of service and helping set the organization on a strong path forward.
