Governance

Not having local news was not an option.

Governance

Beaches News, Inc., the nonprofit entity, does business as Beach Gazette. Beaches News's bylaws frame how the entity is governed. The bylaws state that there shall be between 3 to 5 board members and the requirement for each to sign the Conflict of Interest Policy. This, in addition to a 'firewall' between the Publisher and Editor ensures that readers are receiving news that has not been influenced by Board members or financial supporters.

Leadership

Local news matters. Now more than ever. When it became apparent that The Beaches Leader would sunset, two friends got together to see what they could do to fill this gap.
