Guest Jordan Posted April 24, 2019 at 02:46 PM Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 at 02:46 PM According to the by-laws of an organization I am in, Board Committees shall be appointed by the Board President at the organizational meeting of the board. Temporary committees may be appointed for a specific purpose at any special regular meeting as well. Is there a procedural way for a board member to make a motion to object the appointment of a member to a committee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstackpo Posted April 24, 2019 at 02:59 PM Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 at 02:59 PM I suppose you could make all the "I object" motions you would like, but until the bylaws are amended to remove the exclusive (from what you say) appointment power of the President, they probably aren't going to go anywhere.

A board member could make a motion objecting to the appointment of a member to a committee. If adopted, this motion would express the board’s opinion that this person should not be appointed to the committee. Unless the bylaws are amended, however, the President is still free to appoint this person, notwithstanding the board’s objection. If the bylaws authorize the President to appoint committee members, there is no way for the board to stop the President from appointing someone.
