Your organization can have items of business in any order it wants on its agenda.

See FAQ #18.

See FAQ #2.

Perhaps there could be a new president (see FAQ #20).

Is there a proper format for an agenda?  Unfinished business before minute approval etc?

Please post as a new topic.

No.

I don't think this forum will be of much use for your situation.

See "Remedies for Abuse of Authority by the Chair in a Meeting" in RONR 11th ed., pp. 650-653.

Can someone other than board members be on an adhoc committee?  We would like to research water rates increases and

If you live in a multi housing facility (senior apartment community), can residents who don't attend Residents Council meetings established, participate in a voting procedure (by ballot, not prescribed by said Residents Council and by presiding President of one of its elected officers) and can their vote be legally included per Roberts Rules of Order?

Perhaps more details would be helpful. Also, what is meant by "Apartment Manager Interference"?

A member has the right to vote.

See FAQ #10.

I'm not sure if the other post is related (the original post was deleted).

If in a meeting, a member makes remarks, statements, or arguments about what they think another member believes... is such speech considered "personal remarks" or questioning the motives of a member (or both?) if not part of a pending motion?

 

See responses to your other post.

Since RONR does not require a second reading, it is up to your organization to determine the details for any such rule.

Hold the election. Anyone eligible could be elected.

FAQ #6 may be of use.

Please post as a new topic.

How did he become president?

What makes it "special"?

They could be considered as nonmembers of the assembly and participate accordingly.
