Grex > Coop > #338: proposal to eliminate restriction for Board members
Author Message

proposal to eliminate restriction for Board members Mark Unseen   Feb 10 19:33 UTC 2013
Proposal: Eliminate bylaw 4b, and make such other changes to the bylaws
as are needed to reflect the intention of that change.

Current bylaw 4b:

b.  Upon serving two consecutive terms on the BOD, a person must
      vacate the BOD for one year before being eligible to serve
      again.

Discussion: This was good in 1992, to prevent cliques from controlling
the new organization.  It's an obstacle now.  Most elections are not
contested any more.  There wouldn't have been an election at all this
January if I had not run and offered a controversial proposal.  Other
members said they would have run if not for being restricted by limited
terms.

I'd suggest merely altering the bylaw to allow exemptions to term limits
if no other options are available. Term limited board members could be
nominated and participate in the process all the way through the
election, except that votes for them would only count if otherwise a
seat would be left open.
