Proposed Bylaws Amendment Change
Article 8, Section 8.4 of the Bylaws, entitled “Special Appointments” is amended and restated to read as follows: (red text is being added to this section of the Bylaws)
SECTION 8.4: Special Appointments. The Board may elect such other officers as the affairs of the
Association may require, each of whom shall hold office for such period, have such authority, and perform such duties as the Board may, from time to time, determine.
The Board may appoint individuals to assist the Board as Ex Officio Directors, each of whom shall hold office for a minimum of six (6) months and a maximum of twelve (12) months, as determined by the Board. Ex Officio Directors shall not be members of the Board. Ex Officio Directors shall have such authority, and perform such duties as the Board may, from time to time, determine, in its sole and absolute discretion. Ex Officio Directors may be appointed or removed from office at any time by a majority vote of the Board. Ex Officio Directors shall not count towards quorum for meetings of the Board, nor be entitled to vote as a Director. Ex Officio Directors shall, however, be entitled to receive notice of and attend Board Meetings. The board shall have the power to adopt, establish, amend, and modify rules, regulations and policies regarding the powers and duties of Ex OfficioDirectors.
All other provisions of the Bylaws of the Association remain in full force and effect.
By voting yes for this Amendment, you are accepting this change to Section 8.4 of the current Bylaws. A No vote will reject this addition to Section 8.4 of the current ByLaws.
