Ervin A Posted July 18, 2011 at 01:33 AM Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 at 01:33 AM In a general meeting, when the chair requests for a motion to bring a matter up for discussion and no one makes the motion, is it appropriate for the chair to make a motion? I understand it is allowed in a board meeting. How about a general membership meeting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David A Foulkes Posted July 18, 2011 at 01:38 AM Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 at 01:38 AM It's allowed in a small board meeting (about a dozen or fewer in attendance), but otherwise the impartiality the chair is required to present to the assembly precludes him from making motions. In other word, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
