Explanation for Rule # 14 Approved
The motion to pay for Executive Officer (President, Vice-President,
Secretary, Treasurer) rooms at quarterly business meetings was made by Mr. Odie
Treshner and approved by the body at the May 2000 meeting. At the August 2000 meeting, the Secretary
publicly apologized for failing to record or generate minutes for the May 2000
meeting. (though not stated, the apology was also printed in the August 2000
newsletter), therefore, a permanent record isnt available. Treasurer records support the process
beginning as of August 2000 meeting.
This re-affirmation vote and rule generation are intended to permanently
record and clarify this issue.
Motion was made and seconded to re-affirm paying for the rooms of the
