>> Some points of discussion after reviewing the proposed bylaws:
>>
>> Article III Membership
>> Sentence: Every MRSSA affiliated club is encouraged to send a
>> representative to the annual meeting to maintain their affiliation.
>> Discussion: It was reported to me that there was discussion at the
>> Fall meeting to require a representative from each team to be in
>> attendance at the Fall meeting. Was there action on this? Minutes?
>> If so, should this sentence reflect that? Using a more strict word
>> such as required in place of encouraged? Should this be moved to P &
>> P?
>>
>> Article VI Election and Voting Privileges
>> NSSA Regional Directors are listed with Board voting privileges
>> Discussion: NSSA Regional Directors are listed in Article VI, but
>> not in Article V Officers. In Art. V the Executive Board is listed as
>> well as the club representatives. Should the Directors be included in
>> Art. V? Since there is only one vote per team, should they not be
>> included with voting privileges? Should there be more than one vote
>> per team with Directors being able to vote independently? Other than
>> club representatives, are any positions required to be affiliated with
>> teams in the region?
>>
>> Article VI - MAB - Corrected 2_26_08.
>> Sentence: Board members must be present to vote. Robert's Rules of
>> Order shall be followed.
>>
>> Correction: Robert's Rules of Order, Newly Revised
>>
>> Article VII Suspension or Expulsion - MAB - Corrected 2_26_08.
>> Sentence: 3. Each member suspended or expelled shall have the right
>> to prompt and equitable resolution of grievances through the exercise
>> of due process (See Articles XI, and XII.)
>> Clarification: References to Articles XI and XII do not seem to be
>> correct.
>>
>> Article X Committees
>> Discussion: Four committees are listed and assumed to be standing.
>> Committees are also addressed in P & P. Will these committees be
>> appointed and active? Should these be omitted from the bylaws and
>> left to the P & P?
>>
>> I will address P & P in another e-mail. Will P & P also need to be
>> addressed before the NSSA meeting? There may be a few things we may
>> want to explore in depth. Also of concern, according to current
>> bylaws Article XIV - bylaws may be amended by a two-thirds (2/3)
>> majority at any MRSSA meeting.
>> Loosely, a conference call could qualify as a meeting. The question
>> is, would we have enough members that would be able to participate.
