Guest Joseph Posted July 17, 2011 at 04:59 PM Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 at 04:59 PM Is there such a thing as 'roundtable?' My club as adopted Robert's for board meetings. However, at the conclusion of the Agenda, the older cadre demands to address the board on any topic of their choice and insist, including FYI items and motion items. The roundtable discussions are then supposed to be included in the minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the minutes reflect what was done at the meeting and not what was said so the discussion should not be included in the minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are not members of the board, they have no right to make motions or speak, though the board may allow them to be heard, at its discretion.
