Oops it was Really Pursuits of Petty People.
Taylor G Nelson These are steps that we have to take in order to move forward as an organization! We have to function and stop the infighting. And what we did last night where the first steps of fixing the problem. No longer can we be bogged down with the pursuits of petty people!
And I SO wanted to Join THAT Team!
Though I must admit that after quintuple bypass open heart surgery, my pursuing powers are limited
And my catching probability would require someone Wanting to be caught.
But enough Levity
Whispers on the Wind are relaying that the Executive Board has decided that
Robert's Rules does not require a vote of approval for an agenda to be adopted before a meeting. Apparently the chair sets the agenda and can just run the meeting off that.
I did some looking around some of the more salient points can be found in
But in any event whether or not an Agenda is formally adopted by the Body what the Chair presents can ALWAYS be amended by the Body
There is still that pesky little portion of the County Constitution which states that
The ExecutiveCommittee is subject to the orders of the Linn County Central Committee, and none of its actsshall conflict with actions of the Linn County Central Committee.
In any event there may be advantages in not formally adopting an Agenda. For instance an Agenda presented by the Chair and not formally adopted by the Body.
Would have the Standing of A Decision by the Chair.
A Decision by the Chair can be challenged and over ruled by a simple majority.
An Adopted Agenda however can only be changed by a Two Thirds vote of the Body.
So for instance
If we were nearing the time scheduled to Adjourn?
It could be extended by a Simple Majority rather than a Two Thirds Vote.
I have to admit I am starting to LIKE this new idea of theirs!
Voting for Who Is the Mystery Writer is Still Open
If you vote for "Other" or already have please put in the comments who you thing the "Other" is.
