Special Purpose Meeting
Review Updated Bylaws from Chad Lumpkin
- 7:20pm - Start meeting
- Chad paid $200 to gets this reviewed by an attorney
- 7:30pm – Review of bylaws begins. Discussion on Section 7: Forbidden Acts. Determined to keep the section in tact although it may be vague.
- 7:34pm – Struck Section 8, i. “Attend all meetings”. It conflicted with Section 8, ii.
- 7:35pm - Discussion starts on dismissing a member for active, inactive and passive membership status as defined.
- 8:30pm - Group has decided to create two member states: Active and Inactive. An Active member is a current dues paying member who is active in meetings as required. An Inactive member has permission from the President to miss meetings for a specified period of time while maintaining current dues paying status. During this time and Inactive member has no vote, but participation in club activities is still required. Inactive members do not count towards quorum at any meeting. During either Active or Inactive status participation is required as defined by the club. If participation is determined to be egregiously lacking in any state, a member may call a member to vote for termination by a vote of 2/3s majority. At this time the Club may “save” the member from termination also by a vote of 2/3 majority. Going to sub-committee to type up in this new way.
- 8:37pm - Revised Section 14, ii. to clean up the formula for amount of member interest when leaving. Going to sub-committee for more clear definition.
- 8:43pm – Suggested to revise Section 14 to define that the conditions apply to a member who has elected to leave the Club.
- 9:05pm – Discussion starts on Section 17 disaster clause. Decided to strike Section 17 completely.
- 9:10pm - Meeting concludes. Everyone is happy. Thanks to Chad for the Miller Lites.
