Guest Staci Posted April 30, 2020 at 08:24 PM Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 at 08:24 PM Our current board did not get our candidates or elections taken care of prior to being sidelined because of school being out of session due to COVID-19. It came up at our last Zoom meeting and the only position that has been established prior to this was the President Elect that serves on the board prior to their term as President. Since no other positions have had the opportunity to be voted on/elected does the entire board stay as is until the next PTC General Meeting?

Please quote; don't paraphrase. Officers shall serve for a term of one year or until their successors are elected. No officer shall be eligible for the same office for more than two consecutive terms or hold more than one elected office. Officers shall assume their duties on July 1st. A person who has served in an office for more than six months of a full term shall be deemed to have served a full term in such office. ARTICLE VI": Duties of Officers It shall be the duty of all officers to attend all Executive Board meetings and all general membership meetings. All officers shall maintain notebooks containing records and written reports of their duties and activities. Each Board Member upon expiration of term of office, or upon resignation shall turn over to the President Elect without delay, all records, books or other materials pertaining to the position and shall return without any delay all funds belonging to the organization to the incoming Treasurer.

What about the President Elect do they take over for this new year or wait until all new officers can be voted on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atul Kapur Posted April 30, 2020 at 09:50 PM Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 at 09:50 PM What do your bylaws say, exactly, about the President-Elect? ["second verse, same as the first"] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 4/30/2020 at 4:32 PM, Guest Staci said: Officers shall assume their duties on July 1st My opinion might change depending on your answer to Dr. Kapur's question, but my interpretation of the provision you quoted above is that the president-elect will assume office on July 1st regardless of whether the other officers have been elected. Ultimately, however, this strikes me as a question of bylaws interpretation, something that only the members of your organization can do.
