Guest Jackie Posted March 8, 2011 at 01:35 PM Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 at 01:35 PM I posted earlier regarding the requirements needed to NOT put forward a motion that a Notice of Motion was given on. Our organization requires us to do public consultations when closing a building. We put a Notice of Motion forward, had the consultations and as a result the Notice of Motion has been changed to reflect the desires of the community. How do we handle this? Does the original Notice of Motion get put forward and the changes made within the meeting or do we now put the motion forward with the changes reflected. We have been advised to put the originial notice of motion forward, not discuss it because that has already been done in another meeting, amend it at the table and then get chair to put new motion forward for voting. Any advice?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did consult with our legal department, however, there answer is quite confusing. We will go back to them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
