RWS2190 Posted April 4, 2017 at 02:19 AM Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 at 02:19 AM If By-Laws state that a Husband and Wife can not serve on either the Nominating committee or the By- Laws committee then how is it they can serve as Board members? Would not the fact that they can't serve on the other's rule-out them serving as board members? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contrary: the fact that the bylaws contain rules limiting the offices that a husband and wife can hold, but those rules say nothing about service on the board, indicates that there is no such limitation regarding service on the board.

You have a customized rule which lists two committees, (and no more than two committees), which do not allow spouses. Any third committee, or any board, commission, or council, is therefore not under that particular restraint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
