Guest helpmeimconfused Posted February 7, 2011 at 05:12 PM Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 at 05:12 PM A motion was previously adopted at our last monthly meeting. The motioned passed. Since the motion passed new information has come up that could potentially change the vote. I'm trying to find the best way to not completely change the motion but the presented timeline of the motion. How can I for example: request either a reconsideration of the time line or amendment of the time line to be pushed back for a later start date, based on new information being brought to light after the vote. Also, keeping in mind that the motion was adopted at last month's meeting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes either a two-thirds vote, the vote of a majority of the entire membership, or, with previous notice, a majority vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
