Guest Robert Vokes Posted January 11, 2015 at 07:38 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 at 07:38 PM I understand that the "Call to Order" should not be listed on the agenda (RONR [11th Ed.], p. 26, footnote), since it is not part of the order of business. But what about "Adjournment" listed at the end of the agenda? Is this a part of the order of business and, if not, is it proper to list "Adjournment" on the agenda?

Richard Brown Posted January 11, 2015 at 07:45 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 at 07:45 PM You can list "adjournment" on the agenda, but it is not part of the "standard order of business" per RONR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Brown Posted January 11, 2015 at 07:53 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 at 07:53 PM The original poster posted this question four or five times in a row. Can we stick to this one for our answers? I added this response just to give it two responses to make it stand out from the others and to bump it to the top.

Guest Robert Vokes Posted January 11, 2015 at 08:28 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 at 08:28 PM I'm sorry I posted this question several times. One of the weaknesses in the Web site for a new user is that one cannot know whether the question has in fact been posted. Each time I tried to post the question I received a message that I had not entered the correct verification code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary c Tesser Posted January 12, 2015 at 07:50 AM Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 at 07:50 AM Could you please provide a link to the original post for this question so that I may read the answers and may find the answer to my question. If you can see what you wrote here (at 1:45 AM, EST, according to my time-stamp; it's 2:47 AM here now, so if you're in a different time zone, Guest_Guest, then look at your own time-stamp for this post of mine, which probably will come up as #7, and figure I'm writing this about an hour after your post), then you should be seeing the entire discussion thread, with the original post as post #1 and yours as #6. Otherwise, what do you see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted January 12, 2015 at 08:05 AM Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 at 08:05 AM I can see what you wrote. My question is, since call to order isn't part of the agenda, is it not necessary to state in the minutes the exact time the meeting started?The time it is suppose to start would be written at the top of the agenda anyhow.

Gary c Tesser Posted January 12, 2015 at 08:17 AM Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 at 08:17 AM I can see what you wrote... (O am I gonna let this go.) ..., is it not necessary to state in the minutes the exact time the meeting started? ... RONR says yes, the minutes report the time the meeting started (p. 468, item 3 on line 30; and in the example given, p. 471, lines 5 - 6). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hieu H. Huynh Posted January 12, 2015 at 04:04 PM Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 at 04:04 PM Or p. 472? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Mervosh Posted January 12, 2015 at 04:52 PM Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 at 04:52 PM But what about "Adjournment" listed at the end of the agenda? Is this a part of the order of business and, if not, is it proper to list "Adjournment" on the agenda? Mr. Hunt's parenthetical opinion at the end of his post here http://robertsrules.forumflash.com/index.php?/topic/23632-is-new-business-automatic/?p=130297 which no one took issue with, might provide a very good reason not list it.

Not "or": 472 is clearly better, because it's not wrong. (Aha, so you're starting in now?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
