George Mervosh Posted June 25, 2015 at 07:37 PM Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 at 07:37 PM Can a special meeting be called to overturn a motion made in a previous meeting? No rule prohibits it as long as special meetings are provided for in your bylaws and proper notice of the meeting is given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest George Posted July 17, 2015 at 05:11 PM Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 at 05:11 PM What constitutes proper notice? Our bylaws allow for an executive meeting to be called at any time. No notice requirement is stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Novosielski Posted July 18, 2015 at 07:03 AM Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 at 07:03 AM It's quite possible that a meeting can be called at any time, but "calling" a meeting has a particular meaning in RONR. It means that a "call" (notice of the meeting, giving date, time, place, and the business to be considered) has to be given to all members. If your bylaws do not specify how much notice is required, the rule in RONR says it must be a "reasonable" time. What that means will vary from one organization to another. Called meetings (a.k.a. special meetings) are distinct from "regular" meetings, which occur at a regularly scheduled time and place, as provided by the rules of the organization. Members are presumed to know when those meetings occur, so no notice is required, and any business may be taken up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
