Guest Fred Posted July 2, 2012 at 05:06 PM Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 at 05:06 PM A motion was made and voted on with a 2 to 2 tie, the presiding office has the right to vote in the case of a tie, but refused to do so. Can this motion be made again at the next meeting by anyone of the members, or does it have to be made by one of the 2 that voted no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
