  1. A member of our board of directors has resigned. Our Constitution and Bylaws allow for the position to be filled until the next election by the BOD. There are four members that want to be considered for the position. What is the procedure for choosing the one out of the four wanting the position. Can each of the current board members be asked to vote for their choice and the top choice of the four be the winner. If so what happens if there is a tie between the top vote getters? The President of our BOD never votes except in issues with a tie vote, can he break the tie vote?
  2. The meeting description in the by laws are as follows: "The annual membership meeting of the club shall be held in the spring and fall of each year at a time and place designated by the Board of Directors, fall meeting will be the Annual Business Meeting". Board of Directors Specific Powers: "To make, alter, and amend the rules of the club for the Board's own government, and fix and enforce penalties for violations of such rules" "To make rules for the conduct of the member for any conduct of the members of the club and for their use of clubs property"
  3. 1.There is no rule as to voting at the spring meeting. 2. From our bylaws describing the Presidents duties "The president shall preside at all meetings of the club and the Board of Directors and enforce all laws and regulations of the club. He shall perform such other duties as shall be imposed upon him by resolution of the Board of directors. The President shall with another officer sign all contracts and written obligations of the club".
  4. Our Club bylaws require that two meetings a year be held. A meeting in April and September. The September meeting is the according to our bylaws, is the official business meeting where we have election of Board of Directors and votes on other issues by membership. No votes are held at the spring meeting. The Board of Directors has monthly meetings where the business of the Club is discussed and rules and regulations are made and voted on by the board of directors. At a recent board meeting a rule was made that our membership was not pleased and wish to hold a vote and change. Members have petitioned (signed by a quorum of members) the board to allow the membership to vote on the rule to revoke it as a majority of our board does not want to change the rule and listen to our members. Do we have to wait till the official business meeting in the Fall to hold the vote on the issue or can a special vote be called and held at our spring non business meeting? Can this vote be called by the President of our club without a vote by the board of directors to allow this special vote?
