Guest Dawn Posted January 12, 2018 at 11:43 PM Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 at 11:43 PM I am the chairman. I have one commissioner that wants a special meeting. I have another commissioner that does not. I broke the tie and scheduled a special meeting. What exactly is needed to make a special meeting occur? That fact that one commissioner has several issues that he would like to discuss, is that enough, for a special meeting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Katz Posted January 12, 2018 at 11:49 PM Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 at 11:49 PM Do your bylaws permit special meetings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Who's Coming to Dinner Posted January 13, 2018 at 12:24 AM Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 at 12:24 AM A special meeting may be held only if permitted by your bylaws and according to the requirements therein. Generally, it may be for any matter that your commission is empowered to take up. Notice of the time and place, and the business to be considered, must be provided to all members a reasonable time in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintCad Posted January 13, 2018 at 07:59 PM Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 at 07:59 PM As far as RONR is concerned, any matter can be discuseed at a special meeting as long as it does does not violate the bylaws. The trick is that the special meeting is limited to discussion of those items in the notice of the meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
