Hello Everyone,

Will someone please post the minutes to Board Meetings on the website?  The last minutes of the Board are August 14th.

Confusion reigns.  Not a good thing for such an important event.

Remember that nominations for board positions can be taken from the floor
at the general club meeting.

Hello all,

I have avoided responding to this mess, but feel I need to say two things
because some facts are being left out here.

1) Darryl was provided with a list of people willing to serve on the
smaller board, why he did not publish that list as well I do not know.

2) Several people know, including Mr Anonymous has mentioned that the
bylaws change came from one person or people and not the board. This is
simply not true. I was at the last board meeting and witnessed the board
vote and pass the motion to vote on amended bylaws at the November general
meeting.

Take care and I hope to see all of you at the November Club meeting!

I too am a little confused about this. Some potential candidates have
indicated their willingness to serve only if the board was reduced in
size. Others have indicated the opposite.

I received what looked to be an official club meeting notice last
evening that did not mention the vote to change the bylaws. It presented
a list of candidates for 10 of the 13 board positions as if the failure
of the proposed bylaw change was a foregone conclusion. It appeared to
have been sent to the entire member roster and not just to this
reflector. The emailed club meeting notice seems to completely side-step
the bylaw change portion of the election.

So, are we going to vote on the candidates first, or the bylaws first?
If the proposed bylaw changes pass, then some board positions will be
eliminated, so obviously the candidate list will change and there may
then be multiple candidates for an office. As it looks now, we only have
one choice for each office. Will these candidates still serve in some
capacity if the board seat for which they are a candidate is eliminated?

I think a lot of members are going to be confused on this issue. Those
who received the proxy ballot in the mail and then later received the
official meeting notice by email, could easily think that the bylaw
change vote is cancelled. Since the the notice indicated there was only
one candidate for each position, it could look to some members that
there is no point in voting at all.

Does anyone know how this will work?

Thanks,

Brian - K6BPM
