The Board is normally composed of nine [[Directors]], elected annually by the membership to staggered three-year terms. By a 2/3 vote, the Board may add additional seats. Normally, these are added only until the following August, and they are used to make someone a Director so that they can be elected an [[Elected Officers|Officer]].
To stand for [[Elections|Election]] and to be seated as a Director, one must be a [[Members|member]] "in good standing". However, failing to retain "good standing" will not cause a Director to be removed.
The Board is constrained in its actions by the [[By-Laws]], Florida state law, and the [[Standing Rules]], notwithstanding that they can amend, repeal, or waive the Standing Rules with a majority vote.
