Hi Everyone, we had a great Member meeting last night with over 40 attendees. This meeting included 4 separate Board sponsored motions to update and modify sections of our constitution and bylaws.
Following the instructions in our constitution these motions were made at April’s Members meeting and then tabled to be voted on at the May Member meeting.
Here is a brief summary of each:
- the Club Constitution be revised to eliminate restricting of membership periods to the club’s fiscal year, and honorary memberships from annual review.
- the Club Constitution be revised to eliminate restricting of Club Officers and Board members from serving in a USI office.
- the Club Constitution be revised to clarify the process for impeachment and expulsion.
- the Club Constitution be revised to change when membership dues and fees can be adjusted.
