At a Board meeting of our organization, a member made the following motion:
"I move to enact a policy that our store shall not sell consignment or donated products"
After the meeting was completed and this motion passed, a member brought up that this motion formed a negative statement in the motion and therefore should not have been allowed without re-wording in the "positive".
My question is: does this motion fit the description of a "negative statement" in this motion as described on page 104 under "The Framing of Main Motions" and should it have been avoided or reworded somehow in the "positive"?
