Notes

Prior to Nov 27, 2000 Board meeting

Various, sec 1, 2

Clarify language, already approved by Board last year, except for junior voting rights (see change#1)

1

2.1.b

Grant voting rights to the parents or guardians of junior members

2

4.14

Allow for phone and email votes (also incl. US mail), and put procedure in P&P. This implies we will have P&P to cover this!

Allows for a larger Board size, not proportional to membership size, limit is 18, 4 officers, and 14 directors. This doubles the number of directors, and will increase our labor pool

Not changed yet, we want to clarify this wording at a later date

5

10

Parliamentary improvements, adds P&P authority to By-laws
