Who is a Trustee?
An individual person or member of a board given control or powers of administration of property in trust with a legal obligation to administer it solely for the purposes specified.
Parish Trustees and Finance Councils
In civil law a Roman Catholic parish is recognized as a cooperation. As a cooperation a Roman Catholic parish is governed by a board of Trustees. The members of the parish board of Trustees are
1. The Bishop 2. Vicar General/ Moderator of the Curia 3. The Pastor 4. Two lay individuals
The Parish finance council acts in an advisory capacity and the Parish Trustees participate more directly to ensure the wellbeing of the Parish. The duties of the Board of Trustees are fiduciary and require responsibility for the care and preservation of temporalities and property of the parish cooperation. The Board of Trustees votes to approve any sale of real property. Following the approval of the Diocesan Bishop the Parish may then petition the New York State courts for an order to allow the sale. The Board of Trustees would need to act in a similar manner if the parish mortgages or leases any of its real property. Along with the Parish Finance Council, the lay Trustees play an active role in the review of the annual parish cooperation budget. Additionally, the lay Trustees are responsible for reviewing and signing the annual financial report of the parish cooperation along with the pastor, after the Finance Council has reviewed it. The report is then forwarded to the bishop. As we explained the roles of the pastoral and Finance Council in the previous letter, I think it important for us to know the roles of the Board of Trustees. Fr. Bartholomew Mrosso. M.afr, Pastor
