Linda Preston's Achievements

  1. Section 6 - Elections and terms of office - Elections for officers, and directors whose terms are expiring, are to be held each year at the annual membership meeting. Officer and director candidates must be members in good standing, not having been previously dismissed for cause. Club officer and director candidates must have attended and participated in at least one competitive event held at the FLMLC range during the prior year. Only members in good standing may vote for candidates, individual members have one (1) vote and family memberships have one (1) vote. Section 7 - Removal - Officers and Directors may be removed as prescribed in “Robert’s Rules of Order”, Revised.
  2. Several elected board members have taken upon themselves to amend a set of range rules that are part of our club's bylaws. Our bylaws specifically state that any changes to the bylaws must come before general membership. The rules were adopted by the board at their monthly meeting. The new rules were sent out via email to the membership and will become effective March 31. The new rules appear to be directed at specific members of the club. The dismissal of board members in our bylaws says to follow Roberts Rules Revised. What is the best way to handle this? Thanks.
  3. When your bylaws specify a 2/3 majority to approve, how are abstentions counted? There are 8 people voting. 5 have approved and 3 are abstaining.
  4. Thank you so much for your quick response. We have a few members who unfortunately make claims (like they are an expert) and no one ever fact checks them. Thanks again.
  5. I was put in charge of a committee to amend our bylaws for a small social shooting club in Sept. 2020. We have done that and presented the changes to the board. The board approved the bylaw revisions by the more than 2/3 vote specified in the bylaws. Now it is time to make them available to membership. We will do that via email, printed copy and posting on our website. Is there a 60 day period specified in Roberts Rules that must be maintained before a vote can be taken. Our annual membership meeting is 30 days away. Thanks.
