Guest Mum Posted September 6, 2019 at 11:58 PM Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 at 11:58 PM If a board member says openly during open session, that another board member should resign, and lists a bunch of criticisms as well, I’m guessing that counts as a violation of decorum, as it seems to be a personal remark not germane to a pending motion...

Yes, I agree that such comments are not in order, unless some relevant motion is pending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would not be out of order for a member to move to adopt a motion, calling on some member to resign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No motion was made. It was just casual violation of decorum, that was then joined in on by the Chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
