I need some help.

IRS Ruling 69-545 call for tax exempt organizations to have a 
"community board" but I can't find out what the authority or role of 
that board is. Is it advisory or what? How does it apply when your 
working with a health system and they operate several hospitals 
and clinics.  

Thanks
