Guest Rochelle Posted November 9, 2018 at 08:45 PM Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 at 08:45 PM Our chapter bylaws clearly state that an officer cannot hold one of the committee chairman positions mentioned in the bylaws at the same time. Later in the bylaws we talk about the president being able to appoint special and ad hoc committees and chairs. Can an officer be an ad hoc chairman? Maybe I’m trying to split hairs.

Joshua Katz Posted November 9, 2018 at 08:48 PM Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 at 08:48 PM It's a matter of bylaw interpretation, but based on what you've said here, it would appear that an officer can be the chair of an ad hoc committee, since the ad hoc committee is not mentioned in the bylaws. But, again, much comes down to the specific words - and if there is any ambiguity, only your organization can decide how to interpret them.

Richard Brown Posted November 9, 2018 at 08:54 PM Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 at 08:54 PM Agreeing with Mr. Katz, nothing in RONR prohibits it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
