Guest Steve Posted March 4, 2015 at 03:43 PM Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 at 03:43 PM If a board traditionally allows non-board members to speak without that non-member being on the agenda, is the board obligated to allow a non-members to speak?

Hieu H.

Rev Ed Posted March 4, 2015 at 04:30 PM Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 at 04:30 PM The Board does not need to allow for this unless the By-laws allow for it. But make sure this is not a Special Rule of Order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
