Guest Jan Sutton Posted January 9, 2012 at 03:01 PM Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 at 03:01 PM A motion was made and included a name and salary. The secretary recorded the motion exactly as it was stated. A draft of the minutes was sent to the Board. A Board member asked that the draft minutes be edited/changed to remove the salary from the draft minutes. Usually the Board is invited to edit the draft minutes prior to the next meeting when the minutes are approved. Can a motion be edited in draft minutes after it has been made and voted on?

Trina Posted January 9, 2012 at 03:09 PM Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 at 03:09 PM No.Draft minutes can be corrected. However, if the salary was part of the adopted motion, then no correction seems called for. Removing part of the language of the adopted motion from the minutes would be the opposite of a correction -- it would introduce an error into the minutes.Changing the minutes does not have the effect of amending the adopted motion. The minutes are to be a true account of actions taken by the assembly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
