Hello everyone,
The is an announcement that Leadership is calling a Special Meeting to vote on proposed bylaw revisions/additions that have been in the works for a few months. Leadership has been working very hard to solidify ideas for bylaw revisions/additions that we have been throwing around at the Hive for several years.
There will be an open forum on September 27, 2016 at 8:30pm after the Tuesday meeting. Members are encouraged to attend and add their suggestions, additions, and improvements. This is the time for discussion. Once the bylaw revisions/additions are officially proposed on the list, they will be voted on as stated. Any changes to what is stated will require a separate vote at a different Special Meeting, which is perfectly fine (Special Meetings with quorum are just kind of difficult to reach)!
The Special Meeting for the vote will be on Tuesday October 11, 2016 at 7:30pm. This will allow us to synthesize and take into consideration any input proposed at the open forum, and still have time to officially post the details of the bylaw revisions/additions on the list for review at least 10 days (per the bylaws) before the Special Meeting.
Each related group of revisions or additions to a section will be their own independent vote.
I will follow up soon with the proposed revisions/additions in their “semi-working” form, so anyone attending the open forum can review them beforehand, and anyone who cannot attend can give their suggestions on list. Please post on or before September 28, as we will officially propose the additions/revisions no later than October 1st.
Let’s make some improvements!!
Elly
