PARLIAMENTARY LAW TO ELECTRONIC MEETINGS. Except as authorized in the bylaws, the business of an organization or board can be validly transacted only at a regular or properly called meeting - that is, as defined on pages 81-82, a single official gathering in one room or area - of the assembly of its members at which a quorum is present. It goes on to say: It is important to understand that, regardless of the technology used, the opportunity for simultaneous aural communication is essential to the deliberative character of the meeting. ****Where is the authority in our bylaws to hold a virtual meeting? 3.5 CCRCC Meeting Sign-in Requirements. Members shall sign the attendance record for each meeting they attend. *****For a virtual meeting, how is the attendance record maintained? Will it be passed, house to house, of those attending from their living rooms? I think the question needs to be asked WHY were having this virtual meeting... Did we run out of money to secure a meeting location? Did the officer in charge of meeting spaces drop the ball and allow our arrangement with the Orleans to expire? And once again, why are major changes being made - and decided upon - with even a heads up to the Executive Board? The manner by which this party if run reflects upon each of its members... Id venture to say that the elections - if held - on Wednesday will not be valid per our by-laws and/or Roberts Rules of Order
