Guest Globetrotter Posted April 18, 2016 at 07:52 PM Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 at 07:52 PM Is it legal and/or proper for one board member to vote down a current resolution for the sole, stated purpose of their displeasure of a previous, totally unrelated resolution? In this case, the second resolution needed to pass by unanimous vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is legal and proper for one board member to vote down a resolution. For any reason. For a bad reason. For no reason. -- Reason has nothing to do with it. *** You elected this board member. Remember that, come election time, next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Lages Posted April 18, 2016 at 09:49 PM Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 at 09:49 PM Have you also considered that no one individual member would have this power if you didn't - for whatever reason - require a unanimous vote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I'd also be interested to know why on earth this motion would require a unanimous vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
