Laura Meade Posted January 20, 2017 at 05:48 PM Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 at 05:48 PM If an organization has a standing bylaws committee listed in its bylaws, can its members take it upon themselves to recommend a bylaws revision, or must that request or direction come from the assembly and be referred to the committee?

jstackpo Posted January 20, 2017 at 05:52 PM Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 at 05:52 PM Nothing in RONR would prevent the committees doing it on their own, but it is not uncommon for bylaws to have an "assembly must initiate the request" requirement. Check yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Follow the method of amendment in your bylaws. If your method of amendment in your bylaws makes no mention of such a restriction, then there is no restriction. *** I'd like to read your method of amendment. -- Can you post the text? Guessing at contents of bylaws is hard game to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
