Andy Travis Posted April 27, 2016 at 02:02 AM Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 at 02:02 AM Our last regular board of directors meeting adjourned without having finished everything on the agenda. A specific date and time has been set to carry on with the agenda. Does the secretary write minutes for the part of the meeting that happened? If so, does she just indicate at the end of the minutes that an adjourned meeting has been scheduled for (and list the date and time)? Is the agenda for the adjourned meeting given that title ' adjourned meeting agenda' Quote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the agenda for the adjourned meeting given that title ' adjourned meeting agenda'? Robert's Rules of Order never makes mention of interim minutes where the minutes of of one sitting to be prepared independently of the next "concluding" sitting. So, to keep things simple, I would have the secretary wait, and present the minutes dedicated to that agenda (that "order of business", that "session") at the regular meeting which follows the meeting of finality for that agenda. *** >> Q. Is the agenda for the adjourned meeting given that title ' adjourned meeting agenda'? Agendas are not given titles. A title doesn't mean anything. So, go ahead. Give it a title. There is no rule against it. (Call it "Arthur". George Harrison of The Beatles gave this name to his haircut, when asked, "What do you call that hair style?")

Actually, the book (RONR, 11th ed., p. 473) says this: "An adjourned meeting of an ordinary society approves the minutes of the meeting that established the adjourned meeting; its own minutes are approved at the next adjourned or regular meeting, whichever occurs first."

It's an understandable oversight, since that sentence appears under the introductory phrasing "When the next regular business session will be held within a quarterly time interval (see pp. 89–90), when the session does not last longer than one day, and when there will be no change or replacement of a portion of the membership before the next session, . . .
