Guest Who's Coming to Dinner Posted May 17, 2017 at 05:27 PM Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 at 05:27 PM "The day the notice is sent" is the day the notice is mailed, right? Has nothing to do with when the notice is received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chet , I think your question has been properly answered, at least according to RONR, but why don't you tell us exactly what your bylaws say about the notice requirement? Give us an exact word for word quote, don't paraphrase. By the way, the postmark date may or may not be the date the notice was actually mailed. It is evidence of the date the notice was mailed but it may or may not be controlling. To avoid problems, notices should always be mailed at a time at which they can still be postmarked the same day. Mailing in a corner mailbox after the mail has already been picked up could be problematic but could still constitute timely mailing. If I was the one responsible for mailing the notice, I would never allow that to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
